Cultural Photography Tours & Trips in Australia/Oceania

Watch dawn break across Uluru's 348-meter-high sacred monolith with cocoa in hand and photograph the changing desert colors from red to purple during sparkling wine sundowners. Snorkel the Great Barrier Reef from a high-speed catamaran and capture Victorian architecture in Melbourne's laneways, the Three Sisters rock formations standing over 900 meters high.

You'll start with a Welcome to Country ceremony at Nyanda Waterhole Reserve near Brisbane, where Aboriginal guides walk you through ancient traditions and let you try bush tucker. Then head north to Cairns to snorkel the Great Barrier Reef's colorful coral—it's 135,135 miles of 3,000 reefs. Back south, check out Melbourne's street art and the Shrine of Remembrance before a private tour of the Sydney Opera House.

Walk alongside The Solitary Island Marine Park Waterways in Red Rock with Gumbaynggirr guides who share traditional songs and native plant uses through cultural storytelling. At Port Macquarie's Koala Hospital you'll see rehabilitation efforts, then check out the Natural Bridge rock arch formed by waterfalls in Springbrook National Park and the 665-meter Sea Cliff Bridge extending over the ocean.

You'll photograph ancient Aboriginal rock art at Ubirr in Kakadu National Park and capture 50,000+ glowing bulbs at Uluru's Field of Light on this 15-day cultural photography trip. Shoot the 348-metre Uluru at sunrise and Kata Tjuta's towering domes at Walpa Gorge, then snap wildlife like sea eagles during a Yellow Water cruise.
