East Coast Australia in Style
10 days, Sydney to Cairns
!
Sorry! There are no remaining departures for "East Coast Australia in Style" (OAES), but here are some similar trips.
This comfort-minded journey up Australia’s eastern shore delivers the wonders of the region to you in fine style. Using a diverse range of transport—trains, yachts, surfboards—and resort-style lodgings, you’ll sample world-class wines, wander through rainforests and even learn how to catch a few waves (and a few fish). Plus, we keep your group size intentionally small so it feels less like travelling with a herd and more like exploring with great new friends.

It’s a fabulous place to explore and there are walking trails you can follow. You will also visit the Dolmens, enormous burial chambers dating back to prehistoric times. Please be aware that walking shoes suitable for rough terrain will be required for this excursion.

Situated on a sweeping bay on the beautiful Andalucian coast, here you will find wide boulevards, swaying palm trees, interesting museums and inviting tapas bars. Sit back and relax as you enjoy a panoramic tour, taking in the beautiful Malagueño architecture, avenues lined by palm trees and the city’s main shopping area. You will also head to the hilltop Gibralfaro Castle and admire fabulous panoramic views of the Mediterranean. During free time, you could perhaps enjoy a glass of locally produced Malaga wine in a bodega-style bar or visit the Picasso Museum – one of Malaga’s premier attractions.
Ronda Guide - From $None
Marvel at the spectacular scenery as we drive through the majestic Andalucian mountains to the clifftop town of Ronda. Said to be equal in art, history and beauty, in its heyday, Ronda was an impregnable fortress town. Situated high on a plateau, it is dominated by El Tajo, a 100-metre-deep gorge. Admire the Royal Maestranza Bullring, one of the oldest in Spain, and other iconic landmarks including the Moorish baths and Mondragon Palace, home to the fascinating museum of Ronda. Our scenic drive back to the hotel takes us through sweeping landscapes and a citrus-fruit growing area of southern Spain. Full-day tour – Moderate walking – Bestseller
