Everything was well planned and organized. Great experience, we were also blessed with very nice weather. Will was an excellent guide and great guy. He also shared some interesting stories not just about the places we visited but about Tasmania and Australia in general.

This Sydney to Brisbane 8-day group trip was incredibly well organized from start to finish. The itinerary struck a great balance between structure and flexibility, and the accommodations were comfortable and thoughtfully chosen. Our guide, Cara, was especially standout — knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely considerate of each group member’s needs and pace. They created a welcoming group dynamic while also offering unique insight into the landscapes, culture, and natural beauty of Australia. Overall, it felt seamless, enriching, and like a really special way to experience this part of the country. I’d absolutely recommend it to others.

Best tour companies for Australia tours
For exploring Australia's wild places with real insight, Intrepid Travel has built up a solid reputation - their Tasmania hiking guides actually live and breathe the local trails, and they've got proper gear that holds up in all conditions. The food's genuinely excellent too; their camp cooks work magic with local ingredients even in remote spots. If you're keen to meet fellow travelers while seeing the west coast, Nullarbor Traveller has really nailed the social side of group tours. Their Esperance and Margaret River trips create this nice mix where you're exploring pristine beaches, tasting wines and naturally forming friendships that stick. Our travelers often tell us they stay in touch long after the tour ends. Autopia Tours runs a practical Perth to Exmouth route that gives you good value without cutting corners. Their guides know exactly where to spot whale sharks, when to hit the national parks, and they share interesting stories about Aboriginal culture along the way. For first-time visitors looking to dive into Sydney's social scene and coastal highlights, Intro Travel's Oz Intro works well. They help sort out practical stuff like bank accounts and phone plans, then connect you with other solo travelers for nights out in Sydney and adventures up the East Coast. The orientation week gets you settled before heading north to explore beaches, forests and reef spots with your new travel mates.
Best places to start your Australia tour
Sydney comes in first for Australian tour departures with 21 regular options, while Melbourne follows with 14 and Adelaide handles 11 departures. Brisbane and also Perth round out the main starting points with 9 and 8 departures throughout the year. Looking at how our customers book, we suggest locking in your dates about 4.5 months ahead (129 days) to get the best picks, especially during busy seasons. Our travelers find Sydney tours work really well between March and May when you can enjoy outdoor sites without the heat, while Melbourne really comes alive during October and November when gardens put on their spring show. For good deals and plenty of choice, think about traveling in April-May or September-October - you'll see fewer tourists but still get that perfect Australian weather.

Best time to visit Australia
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter brings out the best of Australia's natural encounters, especially along the western coast. Our travelers particularly enjoy the small-group journeys from Perth to Exmouth where you can swim with whale sharks at Ningaloo Reef and meet friendly dolphins at Monkey Mia. The guides really know their spots - they'll take you to pull up lobster pots near Kalbarri and show you the mysterious Pinnacles formations rising from the desert. Many customers tell us how much they love camping under clear winter skies, followed by morning walks through gorges and pink lakes. Your guide will introduce you to Aboriginal culture through bush tucker tastings and traditional music, while keeping things flexible enough to chase the best wildlife sightings each day.

Spring tours really shine in the southeast, where mild temperatures create perfect conditions for combining city exploration with nature experiences. Our Sydney-based adventures start with harbor walks and surf lessons at Bondi before heading north to Byron Bay. You'll learn to catch waves with local instructors who make everyone feel comfortable, whether you're a complete beginner or looking to improve your skills. Meanwhile, Melbourne departures take advantage of spring blooms in the Royal Botanic Gardens and perfect weather for driving the Great Ocean Road. What makes these tours special is how they blend urban discoveries with coastal adventures - one day you're exploring hidden laneways and the next you're watching for dolphins from coastal headlands.

- Summer 2026
Summer brings out the tropical splendor of Queensland's coast, and our most popular tours make the most of it. The Brisbane to Cairns route lets you experience the Whitsundays at their finest - you'll cruise to secluded beaches, snorkel among colorful fish and maybe even spot sea turtles. Further north, Port Douglas serves as your gateway to both the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest. Our travelers consistently praise the mix of activities: morning reef cruises, afternoon rainforest walks and cultural experiences with local Aboriginal guides. The Cairns-based tours really excel at balancing structured activities with free time, letting you choose between additional reef trips, market visits and cooling off in the lagoon pool.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn offers ideal conditions for exploring Australia's southern regions, particularly around Kangaroo Island and the Adelaide area. Wildlife viewing reaches its peak - you'll find sea lions basking on pristine beaches and kangaroos grazing in the early morning light. Our travelers especially enjoy how these tours combine nature encounters with local food experiences, stopping at artisan producers and wineries along the way. The walking tracks are particularly pleasant this time of year, letting you explore places like Seal Bay and Remarkable Rocks at a comfortable pace. Your guide will know exactly when to visit each location to catch the best light for photos and avoid the crowds, while sharing stories about the island's unique ecosystem and history.
