East Coast Experience – 15 Days starting at: $2,320.00 CAD land only

From the dense rainforests of the north to swinging Sydney, the East Coast offers so much to the adventure traveler. We explore the reefs and islands by sailing boat, stay Aussie-style on a cattle station, hike the Blue Mountains, wander the empty beaches of Fraser Island and check out the nightlife or the natural wonders along the Gold Coast.

Cairns, Crocs & Koalas
We have time in Cairns to choose from a range of activities – whitewater rafting, rainforest walks, the Skyrail to Kuranda, snorkeling or diving. Then we head south to Airlie Beach, stopping en route to see Koala Bears and Crocodiles at the Billabong Sanctuary.
Sailing the Whitsunday Islands
A voyage to these idyllic islands off the East Coast is a must, and as we drop anchor in Blue Pearl Bay, we can enjoy some dazzling diving and snorkelling. But for the less active, the option to chill out and relax is hard to resist!
Blue Mountains & Sydney
After our stay on a working cattle station, we head south and explore the vast sands and forests of Fraser Island, swimming in crystal clear freshwater lakes. Finally we hike through the Blue Mountains to Wentworth Falls and the Three Sisters before driving on to Sydney. See green route on map.
