All About Australia
Discover this storied continent with Journese.
Australia. A continent, an island, a country filled with unique places, incredible food, and natural landscapes. Australia is welcoming travelers from around the world to this one-of-a-kind destination. Together with Journese, these explorations celebrate the most exciting regions of the Lucky Country.

Sydney, Uluru & Cairns | ☾ 12 nights
City, Outback and Reef Exploration
One of the most exciting cities in the world, Sydney is Australia’s major gateway for international visitors and home to three of the most iconic Australian symbols to experience — the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, and Sydney Harbour. After a taste of city life, travelers move inland to Australia’s Red Center, often considered the spiritual heart of the country. Experience Aboriginal culture, desert adventures and the majesty of Uluru, Kings Canyon (Watarrka), Alice Springs, and the West MacDonnell Ranges. Finally, guests take a private transfer to Australia’s beautiful North Coast. Feel the vibrant tropical culture of Cairns, swim the Great Barrier Reef, visit the Wet Tropics rainforest, or explore the red-dirt outback towns.

Sydney, Melbourne & Tasmania | ☾ 10 nights
Australian Gourmet Delights
From the wonders of Sydney’s city center, this itinerary also introduces guests to the foodie city of Melbourne. Enjoy world-class restaurants, edgy street art, the Melbourne Street Eats experience as well as a Yarra Valley Wine and Gin tasting excursion. Traveling even further south, enjoy three nights on the heart shaped island of Tasmania, where pristine coastline, distinctive wildlife, a vibrant arts culture, and space to recharge amidst its untouched wilderness and mountains await. Plus, enjoy world-class food and drink and a tour of the Old Hobart Pub.

Melbourne, Adelaide & Kangaroo Island | ☾ 9 nights
Wine and Wildlife Escape
In Southern Australia, explore diverse outback landscapes, learn from rich and thriving Indigenous cultures, uncover historic towns, spot wildlife, and sample wine from South Australia’s 18 world-class wine regions. Among other adventures, embark on a ranger-led Phillip Island Penguin Parade tour and Taste of Barossa Behind the Scenes. Not to be outdone, and just eight miles off the coast of South Australia, Kangaroo Island is home to spectacular wildlife, epic rock formations, and luxurious boutique hotels. A four-wheel drive tour of Kangaroo Island, beach walks with sea lions, and time spent at Flinders Chase National Park are just the beginning of this remarkable tour.

Brisbane & Hamilton Island | ☾ 10 nights
Stunning Beaches and Sunshine
The Sunshine State’s capital city, Brisbane, is packed with food, art, and culture. Dive into the River City’s eclectic arts scene, shop in hip inner city neighborhoods, or take a trip to the beautiful islands across the bay. An archipelago of 74 tropical islands, the Whitsundays, home to Hamilton Island, lay off the Queensland coast, in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef. Discover Daydream and Hayman Islands, both ideal for sailing, swimming, snorkeling and relaxing.

I look to treat every clients' travel request as though it were my own, making the research and consulting as exciting as the trip itself. I love what I do and wish you to have the best travel experiences possible. No request is too small or large. It is my opinion you will want someone with travel experience who has first hand knowledge. I have undergone extensive training covering all aspects of travel including but not limited to ocean, luxury and river CRUISING, land tour/packages and hotels/resorts. I began in the travel business before the turn of the Millennium as a cruise consultant for a major cruise line. I developed a passion for cruising at a young age which was introduced to me by my Father as many family vacations were planned as a cruise. We are a family owned business. That said, I have now been on over 95 cruises and visited over 60 countries. There is a great big world out there.
