Welcome to Australia

The insider's travel guide to Australia

For some, it’s the nature — kangaroos bounding through vineyards or hundred-strong shoals swarming around kaleidoscopic coral on the Great Barrier Reef. For others, it’s the big open spaces — vast outback, ruggedly ancient rock formations and long, empty white-sand beaches. Some may hone in on the coffee, food and wine, others the chance to see the world from a very different perspective with indigenous cultural experiences.

Diversity of landscape, adventure and a sense of freedom are Australia’s lures, but the infrastructure is strong, the stories are fascinating and indulgence is always an option. Big experiences with low stress are what Australia is all about.

The Best Road Trips In Australia

Getting from A to B in Australia is a different prospect to most countries. When your country is the size of a continent, the old cliché that travel is about the journey rather than the destination takes on a slightly different meaning.

Tasmania's Best National Parks

With nearly half of its territory protected by national parks and reserves, Australia’s southernmost state was made for outdoor adventure. Characterised by lush green forests, rugged alpine plains, dramatic natural formations and a unique assemblage of native wildlife, Tasmania’s largely pristine wilderness areas are the key draw for many visitors, with the island state’s reputation for incredible local produce – particularly cheese, seafood, wine, and increasingly whisky – ensuring you’ll be well-fed (and lubricated) as you explore.
