The Aussie & Kiwi Experience

The Aussie & Kiwi Experience

Travel to the other side of the world for the experience of a lifetime! Your journey begins in Sydney, Australia’s bustling capital, and ends on New Zealand’s picturesque north island. Cruise Milford Sound; travel to the Outback and visit New Zealand’s stunning glacier region. One highlight leads to another. Cruise through Darling Harbour past the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Watch the sun go down at Ayers Rock. Explore Fraser Island, the largest sand island in the world. Overnight aboard the Sundlander, as you traverse tropical Queensland. Take a rainforest walk led by aboriginal guides in tropical Queensland. Visit an authentic Maori village in Rotorua. Experience the great barrier reef from a semisubmersible. Enjoy 2 nights in Australia’s most renowned wine region—the Barossa Valley. Try some of New Zealand’s best wines when you visit a winery in Napier. From a surfing lesson (without getting wet) at world-famous Bondi Beach to a performance at the Sydney Opera House, the “lands down under” offer an unparalleled cultural adventure.
