Australia & New Zealand
Queenstown, New Zealand

Experiences of a lifetime

Taste your way through the best of South Australia, with food and wine adventures in Adelaide, the Barossa Valley, Melbourne, the Blue Mountains, Hobart, Richmond, and Sydney... with an occasional step onto the wild side: a Wolgan Valley wildlife tour by 4x4 vehicle... a safari in search of sea eagles and white wallabies on Bruny Island... and cruises along the striking Tasmanian coast...

Breathtaking Australian landscapes, exotic wildlife, world-class wine, and innovative cuisines await on this 15-day journey off the beaten path.

Explore Melbourne's trendy backstreets and laneways; take the Great Ocean Drive to stunning seascapes of sheer cliffs, beaches and towering rock formations, and hikes in national parks... spend three nights at an Emirates One&Only resort in beautiful Wolgan Valley in the Blue Mountains... fly to Hobart, Tasmania; visit a wildlife rescue center and meet Tassie devils, blue-tongued lizards, bettongs, koalas, and quolls, among other exotic residents; spend a sparkling private evening at the Museum of Old and New Art, and explore the town's exciting food scene; tour the remains of Port Arthur prison; go on a wildlife safari on Bruny Island; and a wine and cheese tasting excursion in Richmond... Cruise the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, teeming with birds and marine-life, for close-up views of its breathtaking cliffs and rock towers.

Queenstown, New Zealand

An invitation to outdoor adventure in Queenstown on New Zealand's lush South Island

Queenstown, set amidst gorgeous landscapes on New Zealand's South Island, is a resort city known for its many opportunities for for outdoor adventure… from jet boat excursions racing through rapids on the Shotover River, to helicopter rides to the top of Bob's Peak, riding the Skyline gondola, watersports on Lake Wakatipu and much more.

Uluru (Ayers Rock) in the Outback

Aboriginal traditions and a natural wonder at Uluru (Ayers Rock) in Australia's "Red Centre"

Uluru (also known as Ayers Rock) is a massive red sandstone monolith rising dramatically out of the desert Outback (or "Red Centre") in Australia's Northern Territory, and is one of the country's most recognizable features and popular attractions. Sacred to the Pitjantjatjara Anangu, the local Aboriginal people of the region, Uluru is geologically classified as an inselberg (an "island mountain"); a UNESCO World Heritage Site and part of Australia's Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, it's a natural wonder that will take your breath away…

Sydney Harbour and Sydney Opera House

Iconic sights on Sydney Harbour

With its iconic skyline comprising some of the 20th century's most innovative architecture, Australia's Sydney Harbour is perhaps the most recognizable urban waterfront on Earth. Two of the Harbour's most remarkable "residents" include the striking Sydney Harbour Bridge – the world's tallest steel arch bridge, opened in 1932 and dubbed "The Coathanger" by locals due to its shape – and the Sydney Opera House, one of the world's most distinctive buildings since its completion in 1973 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Fiordland National Park, New Zealand

The breaktaking beauty of New Zealand's Fiordland National Park

Whether you explore it by land or by sea, it's hard to beat the breathtaking scenery of Fiordland National Park, the largest of New Zealand's 14 national parks, comprising the South Island's southwestern corner and covered in part by the Southern Alps. The national park is dominated by mountain peaks and many deep, glacier-carved fiords, the largest and most famous of which is Milford Sound; cruising its glacier-hewn inlets and sheer cliffs is a truly memorable experience.

Art Deco Napier, New Zealand

Architectural treasures out of a natural disaster... Napier, New Zealand

The city of Napier, on the North Island's Hawke's Bay, is one of New Zealand's most unique cities, due in part to a natural disaster. Virtually destroyed by an earthquake in 1931, the city – despite the deprivations of the Great Depression – was rebuilt in just two years... leaving it with a wealth of Art-Deco architecture, much of it surviving to this day, that's unsurpassed anywhere in the world.
