Central & Outback Australia

Best known as the centre of Australia's Aboriginal culture, this region includes Alice Springs, Uluru (Ayers Rock) and some of the country's most intruiging wildlife.

View region

Queensland & the Great Barrier Reef

This huge, dramatically beautiful region extends from its temperate border with New South Wales up into the tropical north, much of it still barely explored or settled. Most of the state’s great attractions are up along the coast: the huge Daintree Rainforest, the Outback oases of the Atherton Tablelands and the kaleidoscopic colours of the Great Barrier Reef.

Southeast Australia

This temperate region, which covers the State of Victoria, New South Wales and parts of South Australia presents an endless variety with ‘four seasons in one day’ blowing in from the Southern Ocean. Drive the Great Ocean Road, enjoy the cosmopolitan cities of Sydney and Melbourne, or take in the spectacular views in the iconic Blue Mountains.

Southwest Australia

A vast landscape inhabited only by a scatter of residents stretching up to the north. The largest city is Perth, a friendly oasis of sophistication where gleaming skyscrapers overlook quiet colonial suburbs on the banks of the Swan River. A short drive to the west is the restored port town of Fremantle and a chain of beautiful surf beaches, but it is a long drive to the next settlement inland - the gold-mining town of Kalgoorlie.

View region

Tasmania

Tasmania offers stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife and some of Australia’s finest trekking. The main city, Hobart, is a sleepy place, rich in convict settler history and Victorian architecture, while the superb national parks of Freycinet, Cradle Mountain, the Bay of Fires and Maria Island are home to a wide array of wildlife.

View region

Top End & the Kimberley

Australia’s Top End & the Kimberley region plays host to some of its most intriguing wildlife and Aboriginal heritage. Darwin is a vibrant, hot city with an undeniable dynamism whose surrounding countryside of monsoon rainforest, Outback escarpments and remote billabongs shelter an array of wildlife from crocodiles and kangaroos to sea eagles and Jesus birds.
