It’ll only lead to generic photos (only this time you’ll be the one taking a bite out of the Big Banana). Break away from the crowd by taking an 11-day trip around Australia that replaces tired tourist traps with meaningful, authentic, and unique experiences. Begin your holiday in the chic city of Melbourne, which is known for its dining and cafe scene, forward architectural design and boutique shopping. Learn more about its people as a local Melbournian takes you on an insider’s tour of the city, then explore Melbourne’s many districts on an informative bicycle tour. The following day, follow the Great Ocean Road from surfing town, Torquay, to the cliffs overlooking Shipwreck Coast, where you’ll get to take a thrilling helicopter ride around the 12 Apostles rock formation. Next, set your sights on warmer climes as you travel north to the tropical city of Cairns and stroll around its streets and boardwalk, and then head out into the Australian outback. Try your luck at fossicking for gems or gold, admire local wildlife as it hops and climbs trees around you and explore the prehistoric Undara Lava Tubes. Return to Cairns and head off on a special harbor cruise to snorkel or dive unique spots on the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef. Finally finish your adventure in Sydney where you’ll get to cruise the harbor, hold a snake, see kangaroos in the wild and hike through the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains.
