Discover the Iconic Great Barrier Reef

No journey to the Land Down Under is complete without a visit to the Great Barrier Reef. As one of the world’s premier natural wonders, the Reef boasts a breathtaking array of marine life set against a backdrop of vibrant corals. Dive or snorkel into this underwater paradise, where colourful fish, majestic turtles and elusive rays glide effortlessly through the clear blue depths. Private experiences in Australia, particularly here, offer bespoke diving tours perfect for both beginners and seasoned divers, ensuring a truly unforgettable adventure.

Revel in the Cultural Richness of Sydney

Sydney, with its iconic Opera House and Harbour Bridge, is a bustling metropolis that seamlessly blends urban cool with natural beauty. Explore the historic Rocks district with its cobblestoned streets and eclectic markets. Attend a private backstage tour at the Opera House or enjoy a gourmet dining experience in Darling Harbour. For those seeking more intimate experiences, private trips to Australia can be tailored to include art tours, culinary explorations or simply enjoying a serene walk in the Royal Botanic Garden.

Venture into the Heart of the Outback

The Australian Outback, a stark but stunning expanse of red earth and endless skies, is where the true spirit of Australia can be felt. Private tours here might include a visit to Uluru (Ayers Rock), where you’ll witness its changing hues at sunrise or sunset. Engage with the indigenous cultures of this ancient land, learning about the Dreamtime stories that imbue the landscape with deep cultural significance. Personal guides enrich these experiences, offering insights that transform your trip to Australia from a holiday into a profound exploration of heritage and history.

Savour Tasmania’s Gourmet Delights

Often overlooked by first-time travelers, Tasmania is a hidden gem brimming with exquisite culinary experiences and pristine nature. Wander through its renowned vineyards and orchards, tasting wines and ciders that capture the island's unique terroir. Engage in private cooking classes where local chefs teach you to prepare dishes using the freshest Tasmanian produce. Besides its gourmet lure, Tasmania also offers breathtaking hikes in the Cradle Mountain-Lake St. Clair National Park, making it an ideal destination for foodies and nature enthusiasts alike.

Experience the Coastal Charms of the Great Ocean Road

Driving along the Great Ocean Road is perhaps one of the most scenic journeys you can undertake. This winding route takes you past dramatic cliffs, dense rainforests and the awe-inspiring Twelve Apostles limestone stacks. To truly appreciate its beauty, consider a private tour that allows stops in charming seaside towns and secluded beaches—perfect for escaping the usual tourist frenzy. Whether viewing the rugged coastline from a helicopter or simply enjoying a leisurely pace of travel, this is one of the top private experiences in Australia.

Relish a Day in the Vineyards of the Barossa Valley

Known for its world-class wines, the Barossa Valley invites you for a day of wine tasting and gourmet dining amid its sun-drenched vineyards. Private Australia trips can include exclusive tours of family-operated wineries, offering an inside look into wine production and the opportunity to taste some of Australia’s best vintages straight from the barrel. Coupled with a leisurely lunch curated from local produce, this is a sensory delight that captures the essence of Australian hospitality.

Whether it’s the allure of the Great Barrier Reef, the cultural pulse of Sydney or the serene beauty of Tasmania, private trips to Australia offer a unique way to discover this vast continent on your own terms, allowing you to delve deeper into the country’s diverse landscapes, rich cultures and extraordinary experiences. Consider tailoring your next adventure for an unforgettable vacation, and let the wonders of Australia leave an indelible mark on your journey.

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

We recently worked with Jacqueline to plan our trip to Greece and had a wonderful experience. We made several revisions to our itinerary and Jacqueline was patient, understanding and prompt in responding to our needs. In addition to the specific tours she booked, she provided extra options and local suggestions for each place we visited in Greece. Her attention to detail and responsiveness made our trip incredibly memorable. Mark Mendell

We have used Goway several times to plan simple & more complicated trips. The last 2 trips we worked with Brooke Theron who is extremely customer focused. She listens well & is alway flexible to look at alternatives. We will continue using this representative & Goway. Our only criticism is that they do not break down the various costs of a trip which makes tipping very awkward. It can also create a sense of " mistrust" when all the costs are not transparent.

Our trip to Switzerland was an amazing experience. Our travel agent at GoWay, Bo was so helpful in helping my husband Louie plan just what we wanted to do on this trip. Taking the trains thru the county was easy by the many hours Louie and Bo worked on this. Also our helicopter ride in Zermatt on my birthday was just unbelievable. Flying around the Matterhorn and the Alps is one flight we will never forget. Thanks Bo for setting this up. The trip was one incredible adventure that we will never forget. Thanks again Bo, Lynn Gerber. Lynn Gerber

We booked a Goway tour to Botswana and Zimbabwe and it was excellent.  We worked with Brooke, the Goway represntative, to set up the tour and she was an outstanding agent who answered any questions we had very quickly and completely. Her hotel recommendation for the additional night we stayed was pefect.   Goway hires a local tour group, Jenman Safaris, to lead the safari in the 2 countries. The tour itself was amazing...the lodges that we stayed at were very nice and the food was great (except for one lodge's food). The Goway itinerary was slightly different than the actual Jenman Safari itinerary but most of the sites that we went to were the same as listed on the Goway itinerary. I would use Goway again because their choice of a local tour group was very good...nice lodges/camps and good food and knowledgeable tour guides.Ma Fa

Matthew handled my honeymoon couple's very specific African itinerary like a pro! My clients went to four different travel agents who only wanted to send them on safaris. My clients had already done safaris and were specific on what they wanted to do and see. Matthew hit the nail on the head! Highly recommend!Amanda Schott

Jacqueline F. made our trip exceptional. Everything she planned or reserved worked out as it was supposed to. Croatia was amazing and I feel we were able to explore a lot of it because of Jacqueline.Allen
