Come Say G'Day

Come Say G'DayCome Say G'Day

Come And Say G'day...

To nature in all its forms...
With unique wildlife found nowhere else on Earth, Australia is home to a wide variety of fascinating animals. From the iconic kangaroo and koala to the elusive platypus and echidna, Australia's wildlife is truly one-of-a-kind. If you're lucky, you might catch a glimpse of the rare and endangered cassowary, a giant native bird of the region, or even spot some sunbathing crocodiles on a breathtaking coastal drive. Of course, Australia's wildlife is not limited to just land animals. The surrounding waters are teeming with marine life, including the iconic Great Barrier Reef, which is home to thousands of species of fish, sharks, and sea turtles. Visitors to Australia can witness these incredible creatures up close and personal, whether it's on a wildlife tour, in a wildlife sanctuary, or even just out in the wild. 


To expansive wilderness...
Go walkabout on this vast continent, similar in size to the lower 48 states of the US. Explore the rugged terrain of the Outback, where you'll find stunning rock formations, ancient Aboriginal art, and diverse wildlife. Head to the coast to soak up the sun on some of the world's most beautiful beaches, or dive into the Great Barrier Reef to witness a colorful underwater world. Take a road trip along the Great Ocean Road to see the Twelve Apostles, a stunning collection of limestone stacks that rise from the sea or step into a prehistoric paradise and uncover the breathtaking Daintree Rainforest, the oldest rainforest on Earth, with crystal-clear streams, towering ancient trees, and cascading waterfalls. 

To that laid back Aussie charm...
Experience the Aussie way of life, the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. It is an outdoorsy lifestyle combined with a humorous outlook on life that gives the country its laid back culture, which is embodied by the Aussies' love for life. Their easygoing nature is sure to leave you feeling welcomed and at ease. Whether you're exploring the bustling city of Sydney, surfing the waves at Byron Bay, or taking a leisurely stroll along the beaches of the Gold Coast, you're guaranteed to encounter that warm and inviting Aussie charm.

To the delicacies of the Australian continent... 
When it comes to wines, Australia has a lot to offer. With over 60 wine regions and more than 100 grape varieties, there's a wine for every palate. The warm climate in Australia makes it perfect for producing bold and fruity red wines such as Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. On the other hand, Australia's cooler regions produce some of the best white wines in the world, including Chardonnay, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc.

And let's not forget Australia's mouth-watering cuisine! The country may be known for its savory meat pies and oh-so-Australian vegemite sandwiches, but from bustling cities to quaint towns, Australia has no shortage of fine dining restaurants that showcase the country's unique culinary heritage. With all sides surrounded by ocean, it should serve as no surprise that freshly caught seafood like shrimp, oysters, and lobster are palate-pleasing offerings. Australian cuisine very often draws inspiration from its multicultural population, with dishes like laksa, a Malaysian noodle soup with a spicy kick, or bao, a fluffy Chinese bun bursting with your choice of meat or veggies topping the list of "must try's". So, if you're looking for a culinary adventure, be sure to say G'day to Australian fine dining. With its unique blend of flavors and influences, it's sure to be a meal you won't forget.

With so much to discover, the land Down Under is a must visit for any adventurer. Are you ready to come and say G'day to an Australian adventure? Get even more inspiration from our Australia Adventure Lookbook, or get the wheels turning with our suggested itineraries, below.
