Benefit from experience

It is comforting to know that this selection of vacations is offered through Australia and New Zealand’s most experienced land-tour operators—experience that brings many satisfied customers back time and again for more.

‘Luxury—from seat to seat

We all know that traveling can be a pleasure, but it can also be a backbreaking experience. Qantas Airways knows that seat comfort is one of the most important aspects of any long-haul flight, which is why they have installed ergonomically-designed seats in all aircraft to provide the best possible comfort during the flight. Traveling on land should be no different. In most cases, luxury touring coaches are utilized. Each coach features individually-controlled reclining seats with ample leg room for superb touring comfort. For convenience, most vehicles come equipped with toilet and washroom facilities and drinking water dispensers.

Traveling alone?

Twin share guarantee: Prices quoted in this brochure are per person, based on two people sharing a room. For singles, this often means extra expense when the single supplement surcharge is applied. If you want to avoid these additional charges, we feature several tours where we will endeavor to match you with another single traveler of the same sex. Please ask for details.

Select-a-vacation … à la carte

We are excited to be able to offer you an exclusive range of vacation options designed to cater to every taste. From those who want to enjoy the ultimate in fully-escorted service, to those just wanting a day trip or a weekend outing with a group, we have the vacation to suit your needs. By including a range of short-duration vacations to allow maximum freedom and flexibility, we’ve also catered for independent travelers who want to join a group for a particular sightseeing expedition.

Stay an extra day … or two
To allow for leisurely and relaxed touring, we have included many stays of two or even three nights in some cities to give you time to relax and soak in the beauty and splendor of these places. Most travelers find these mini-stops invaluable, and not having to pack each day comes as a welcome break.

Food, glorious food

Where meals are included in the price, you will start each day with a superb, fullycooked breakfast, or you can choose from a selection of lighter alternatives. Dinners consist of varied, multiple-choice menus, superb buffets or even special dining options. Visitors to Queensland, for example, will sample some of the best seafood in the world, and those traveling to the Northern Territory will have the chance to taste local delicacies such as kangaroo. In many cases, lunch is not provided, leaving you free to explore and experience other local fare.

In the know

One of the best reasons for choosing a group tour is the fact that you can sit back, relax and enjoy being hosted by some of the most experienced and knowledgeable coach captains and tour directors in the world. All members of the crew are proud to call Australia or New Zealand home and will ensure your vacation is memorable.

Best product, best prices

Prices for some of the vacations featured in this brochure are fully-inclusive and cover accommodation, meals, sightseeing, entrance fees and cruises. We have even included some service fees and porterage charges (one piece of luggage per person per hotel). Gratuities are also included for all meal services included in the itinerary. Tipping of your tour director and driver isn’t included. If you feel they have done an excellent job while on tour, a token of your thanks is always appreciated. Not included are things of a personal nature: laundry, drinks, telephone and fax charges, visa and passport fees, immunizations, meals not specified, and any foreign or domestic taxes. Once you have decided to take the trip of a lifetime, come and talk to the company that can offer more choices, more flexibility and more savings than any other vacation company.
