DELIGHT in a memorable mix of cultures and natural beauty that takes you from New Zealand’s charming hamlets, set in lush countryside, to the sophistication and diversity of Australia’s metropolitan cities. Within its two major islands, New Zealand offers the most dramatic and varied natural features in the world. Alpine snow-covered peaks, towering fjords, massive glaciers and even a geothermal area. Sample the diversity of ‘Down Under’ on your visit to Australia’s metropolitan cities. Australia has always had a curious and inviting quality about it and its people. An extension to the Outback will take you to Ayers Rock, Alice Springs and beyond to the wonders of the Barrier Reef. |
