  • Quality
    This indicates the overall quality of the tour operator's products. A low rating does not mean it is not good - it just means that it does not include as much, or perhaps is of a more standard quality than the higher quality tours. For example, a 3 star quality rating means that it is a more standard/economical tour, while 5 stars is a very luxurious tour that often includes a lot of amenities.

Overview

The experiences Australia offers travellers are as varied as the land is vast: there are endless coastlines to cruise down, Indigenous cultures to learn from, protected rainforests to navigate and secluded islands to idle upon. Only an itinerary curated by experts, rooted in local insights and facilitated seamlessly by A&K’s network can reveal the very best. This 12-day itinerary starts in Melbourne, the gastronomic hub that offers a gateway to the iconic Great Ocean Road. Majestic and mystical Uluru awaits, with a moonlit supper and a safari-style camp in the Outback arranged to elevate your experience of this sacred monolith. Retreat to a 130-million-year-old rainforest, journeying onwards for a private island sojourn on the Great Barrier Reef. Finally, skip back south to action-packed Sydney for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Sydney Opera House, and much more besides.
