Discover the Best Trips to Oceania
What makes Oceania such a memorable place to visit is its combination of diverse island cultures and picture-postcard settings. In Australia, the Great Barrier Reef is among the grandest of these settings, the largest living structure on the planet and a vibrant maritime treasure ideal for snorkelling and diving.
Venture into the Wild Heart of Australia
No understanding of Australia is possible with venturing into its heartland: the mystical landscapes of the Outback. An instantly recognizable icon of Australia, Uluru is especially important to the local Anangu people, who regard it as a deeply sacred place. Both Uluru and the nearby rock feature of Kata Tjuta show physical evidence of feats performed during the creation period.
Iconic Cityscapes and Urban Delights
Australia's gateway city, Sydney beckons travellers with its dazzling skyline and vibrant culture. Stroll through the Royal Botanic Garden for a respite from the urban jungle or sail the serene waters of Sydney Harbour for views of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Melbourne, a city of undisputed charm, is known for its arts scene and coffee culture, a walk through its famous laneways revealing an eclectic fusion of graffiti art and culinary prowess that promises to surprise and delight.
Exciting Wildlife Encounters
Just off the mainland of South Australia, Kangaroo Island is a living sanctuary, where koalas doze in eucalyptus trees and kangaroos bound freely across expansive terrain. Farther beyond the mainland, the Whitsunday Islands offer a perch for observing whale migrations and other maritime wonders.
Why Stop at Just One Country
Australia is many nations in one, but why just stop there? Opting for curated packages covering more of Oceania is an efficient and exhilarating way to experience this vast region while you’re Down Under. Combining Australia and New Zealand in the same trip, for instance, lets you experience wildly contrasting topographies and ecosystems within the space of a few weeks. Adding in an island nation like Fiji or the Cook Islands throws in beach time and rich South Pacific Islander culture. A multi-country package offers a depth and breadth of experience that single-focus tours cannot.
Practical Tips for Your Combined Oceania Tours
- A minimum of two weeks is recommended for combined tours of Australia and New Zealand. Allot another one if you’re adding in another country. When planning a combined tour, keep in mind that some days should be relegated for travel. A qualified tour operator will optimize time spent in neighbouring countries.
- Both Australia and New Zealand boast high-quality healthcare, but insurance is advisable. The intense sun in Australia and neighbouring countries can necessitate strong sunscreen and protective clothing.
- The best time to visit Australia and New Zealand for great weather is from September to November and March to May. September to November is spring in the Southern Hemisphere, while March to May is fall.
- Consider a cruise for an excellent way to see Australia and New Zealand. You can also fly between cities, or take scenic drives.

Tasmania is under the radar for many travelers, but it’s great for hikes, natural landscapes and now modern art!
Sydney and Melbourne are a great combination for first-time visitors to Australia, with Brisbane, Adelaide and/or the Outback added in, depending on how much time you have. Returnees should take in Perth, Darwin and the Kakadu National Park area and/or Tasmania if they can, plus spend some time in the cities they loved the first time around
It might sound cliche, but you really can visit year-round. Australia is a big country, so there is always somewhere with amazing weather!
