Private Australia Tours
Australia never seems to settle on just one mood. Melbourne’s old facades and modern corners share the same streets, while the Sydney Opera House curves into the harbour like it’s always belonged there. Far inland, Uluru glows softly at dawn, and along the coast, the Gold Coast and Cairns bring warm air, long beaches, and rainforest that feels thick and alive.

Tour Radar is a great way to get a 10 day tour of a part of Australia. There was a bit of difficulty getting used to finding our tour guider for the day and realizing that every tour was separate, so we had no consistent group, everyday was with different guide and with different people. enities but the hotels in Sydney and Melbourne were excellent.The only negative: The Southern X in Cairns was substandard, away from any restaurants and in a poorer neighborhood, with few services provided. The actual daily tours were excellent!

What our customers ask about Private Australia Tours
What are the most popular destinations covered in Australia Private tours?
Australia's Private tours connect travelers with signature locations from the Sydney Opera House to the Great Barrier Reef and Uluru. The coastal journey from Perth to Adelaide along the Nullarbor Plain reveals secluded spots like Cape Le Grand National Park where pristine beaches meet turquoise waters. Many travelers opt for a mix of urban and natural settings combining time in Sydney's harbor district with day trips to spot kangaroos in the Blue Mountains. Upscale lodging at properties like the Sofitel Adelaide and Port Lincoln Hotel provide refined comfort between daily excursions.
What's the best time of year to take a Private tour in Australia?
Spring (September-November) and autumn (March-May) provide the most pleasant conditions across most regions with mild weather and fewer tourists. The Great Barrier Reef sees optimal snorkeling visibility from June through August when water temperatures hover around 75°F. Winter months (June-August) bring comfortable daytime temperatures for exploring the Red Centre and Uluru. A TourRadar traveler shared: "We took our Private tour in April and had perfect weather for exploring both the coastal regions and outback plus we avoided the peak summer crowds."
What level of accommodation can I expect on Australia Private tours?
Private tours feature upscale 4-4.5 star properties such as the Sofitel Adelaide and Margaret River Beach Resort. In Port Lincoln guests stay at the waterfront Port Lincoln Hotel with views over Boston Bay. City accommodations like Sydney's Amora Jamison put travelers in prime downtown locations. According to one TourRadar review: "The accommodation throughout our Private tour was exceptional - the Jetty Resort in Esperance had stunning ocean views and the Desert Gardens Hotel at Uluru offered incredible sunset vistas of the rock."
What kind of transportation is used on Australia Private tours?
Tours utilize premium 4WD vehicles like the Toyota Sahara configured for both comfort and off-road capability. The spacious vehicles handle everything from coastal tracks along the Eyre Peninsula to desert paths. Many itineraries include domestic flights between major destinations and boat transfers for experiences like visiting Coffin Bay's oyster farms. A traveler noted: "The luxury 4WD was perfect for our family of four with plenty of space and great visibility for wildlife spotting along the Nullarbor Plain."
What's included in the meal arrangements for Private tours?
Tours typically cover all meals featuring regional specialties and fine dining. South Australian itineraries often include seafood tastings at Port Lincoln's Fresh Fish Place wine pairings at Boston Bay Wines and hands-on oyster experiences in Coffin Bay. One TourRadar guest reported: "The food was exceptional throughout - from gourmet picnics in national parks to sophisticated restaurants like Del Giorno's in Port Lincoln. The ability to accommodate our dietary preferences was impressive."
What's the ideal duration for a Private tour in Australia?
A 12-15 day Private tour allows time to experience Australia's diverse landscapes and cultures. This duration provides 3-4 days each in Sydney and Melbourne 2-3 days at Uluru and 3-4 days exploring the Great Barrier Reef from Cairns. Quality accommodations like the Novotel Sydney Central and Hamilton Island Resort serve as comfortable bases. As noted by a TourRadar traveler: "Two weeks was perfect - we had enough time to really immerse ourselves in each destination without feeling rushed between locations."
