Australia East Coast Tours & Trips
Could you handle Australia's east coast, though? We're talking Bondi surf lessons, sailing through the Whitsundays with that insane water color, exploring Fraser Island's sand dunes in a 4x4, snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef before it's too late, wine tasting in Hunter Valley, and learning about First Nations culture in Gumbaynggirr. Sydney to Cairns properly done.

Really enjoyed, super busy itinerary, includes all of the big stops, highly recommend the daintree day trip while you are in cairns.
Oz IntroThis tour was incredible from start to finish. Everything was made so easy from the very first meeting in the office. The itinerary was great, everything you could want to do in Australia on the East Coast was included. All the popular spots were included and a personal highlight was Airlie Beach and flying over the Whitsundays was incredible and a top highlight of the trip!
