This sleepy capital of Queensland, Australia, is much ignored by visitors. Internationally notable for its proximity to the Gold Coast (surfing and partying central) and the Sunshine Coast (beautiful scenery and beaches unlike anywhere else on the eastern coast of Australia), the city is a great place to stopover on the way up to Rockhampton, Cairns, or Fraser Island. However, Brisbane has its delights and attractions too, particularly for the adventurous visitor.

G’day and welcome to Australia Zoo, home of The Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin! Just one hour north of Brisbane, Australia Zoo offers a full day of wildlife adventure. Open since 1970 as Beerwah Reptile and Fauna Park, this unique zoological facility is home to over 1000 animals on nearly 60 acres of natural bushland.

Broome Half-Day Tour and Cable Beach Sunset Camel Ride

One of the best ways to see the spectacular sunset at Cable Beach is from the back of a camel! This afternoon tour of Broome gives you an insight into Broome’s pearl industry history, a tour through Chinatown and Gantheaume Point, before climbing aboard your camel for a ride along the sands whilst watching the sun go down. This is definitely one of Broome’s highlights!
Rottnest Island Day Trip from Perth

This Indian Ocean island paradise is abundant in marine life and wildlife, the most unique is the quokka, a small nocturnal marsupial with the appearance of a pint sized kangaroo that is native to Rottnest Island.
Explore Manly, and take the best Ferry Ride in the World

North of Sydney Harbour are some of the city’s best beaches which are far quieter than those in the eastern suburbs. The best known of these is Manly and the best way to get there from the city centre is on a ferry from Circular Quay. Taking approximately 30 minutes, the scenery along the way ensures it isn’t the longest half an hour of your life.
