- Trek The Kimberley
Australia is full of natural wonders that should already be on your must-see list like the Great Barrier Reef, Blue Mountains, or Wineglass Bay in Tasmania.
But one place we want to call out today is The Kimberley in Western Australia. This place is truly unique due to it’s sheer size and wilderness. Put it this way, it’s larger than the whole of the United Kingdom and is home to a diverse climate and range of creatures with tropical torrents in the wet season or intense heat during the dry season. Not to be missed!
- Climb the world’s highest steel-arch bridge
One of the best tourist attractions in Sydney is the thrilling experience of climbing the Sydney Harbor Bridge.
As the world’s highest steel-arch bridge, you will find yourself 134 meters above sea level with the best view in town of the Opera House and Sydney’s City skyscrapers. You can even see as far as the Blue Mountains if it’s a sunny day.
- Dive with dwarf Minke Whales
Whale watching is a mesmerizing experience, but only in Australia can you actually dive in and swim with them.
Every winter in July and August, pods of dwarf minke whales, that can be as long as 8 metres migrate north, passing through the Great Barrier Reef.
What a great experience while driving through Cairns and Port Douglas in your campervan.
- Hop from the rainforest to a sandy beach
Only in Australia can you stand in a spot where two of the World Heritage listed areas meet in one place.
Visit Cape Tribulation in Queensland and you will find yourself in the middle of the Daintree Rainforest… take a few more steps and you’ll feel a sandy beach underneath your feet with a view of the world’s largest coral reef system, the Great Barrier Reef.
- Watch the sunset over Uluru
The famous sandstone rock is one of the most recognizable Australian landmarks, both for its cultural significance and sheer beauty. This landmark is rightfully designated as a World Heritage Area.
- Ride the longest railroad in the world
Australia is home to the longest and straightest railroad in the world. If you really want to see Australia on the ground then hop on the Indian Pacific train that will take you from Sydney all the way to Perth on a three-night journey. The railroad is 487 km’s long with a view of Australia’s unique landscape.
