Map of 10 Day Tropical Adventure Reverse 2013 - 14

 

Day 1 Cairns.

Welcome to Cairns, and welcome to your awesome Australian adventure! There are loads of things to do here, including white-water rafting, skydiving and horse-riding, or you can simply relax in the cafes.

 

Day 2 Cairns (Great Barrier Reef).

A day you’ll never forget – we take a ‘Passions of Paradise’ catamaran cruise to the jaw-dropping Great Barrier Reef. Snorkel among the pristine coral in Michaelmas Cay and Paradise Reef, gaze at the abundant colourful reef fish and sea turtles, and enjoy a fresh cooked lunch on board. Tonight, why not toast our unforgettable trip with a night out in Cairns! (B,L)

 

Day 3 Cairns to The Whitsundays (Overnight Sailing).

Next we travel down through Townsville to Airlie Beach, resort town and gateway to the Whitsunday Islands. Step aboard our racing maxi-yacht as we head in to the blue, then stargaze from the deck after dark. Bliss. (B, D)

 

Day 4 The Whitsundays.

We’ve arrived in Paradise! After waking in a sheltered cove, we visit Whitehaven beach, a slice of blinding white-sand perfection. Soak up the sun, swim in the tropical ocean and snorkel over colourful coral reefs. You could even take a turn at the helm! Tonight we stay on an idyllic tropical island. (B, L, D) 
 

Day 5 The Whitsundays.

A whole day to explore the island’s unspoilt beaches and azure waters. Feed the Rainbow Lorikeets, relax by the pool, or hike the trails for scenic views, then enjoy Topdeck’s Sunset Cocktails and Canapés by the beach this evening! (B, D)

 

Day 6 The Whitsundays to Emu Park.

We’re up early today, heading back to the mainland and Airlie Beach. From here we head south to beachside Emu Park, where we enjoy a real Aussie favourite, a ‘reef & beef’ dinner. (B, D)

 

Day 7 Emu Park to Kroombit Park, via Rockhampton.

After a visit to visit Rockhampton (or “Rocky” to the locals) we’re off to the Outback. At our working cattle station in the bush we can watch a Goat Rodeo, feast on delicious camp-oven tucker, and even try our luck on the mechanical bull! The scenery’s amazing and the hospitality is legendary. (B, L, D)

 

Day 8 Kroombit Park to Noosa.

After an optional quad-bike ride, or a more sedate horseback option it is on to Noosa, a popular resort town on the Sunshine Coast that borders a beautiful national park. (B)

 

Day 9 Fraser Island.

A full day visit to the world’s largest sand island, UNESCO World Heritage-listed Fraser Island! We take a 4-wheel drive tour and guided rainforest walk followed by an Aussie BBQ lunch on the banks of stunning Lake McKenzie. (B, L)

 

Day 10 Noosa to Brisbane.

We’re off along the Bruce Highway, past the Glasshouse Mountain range and on to Brisbane, capital of Queensland, where we sadly our fantastic Australian trip ends and we say our goodbyes. (B)

 

Please note this trip forms part of the Island Suntanner Reverse, days 1 - 10.
