Australia vacation idea
Australia: Melbourne, Uluru, Great Barrier Reef & Sydney
A 10-day luxury Australia journey combining Melbourne, Uluru, the Great Barrier Reef and Sydney with included on-tour flights.
Why This Trip Stands Out
This luxury Australia itinerary connects four completely different sides of the country without wasting days on complicated logistics.
- Melbourne’s food, culture and city neighborhoods.
- Uluru at sunset in Australia’s Red Centre.
- Great Barrier Reef exploration from tropical Port Douglas.
- Sydney Opera House and harbor experiences.
- Included private charter flights between major regions.
Sample Itinerary
Days 1–2 | Melbourne
Start in Melbourne with guided city experiences, local food and time to settle into Australia.
Day 3 | Uluru
Fly into the Red Centre for Uluru, desert scenery and a sunset experience overlooking one of Australia’s most recognizable landmarks.
Days 4–6 | Port Douglas & Great Barrier Reef
Continue north to tropical Queensland for rainforest scenery and a full Great Barrier Reef experience with opportunities to snorkel and explore the marine environment.
Days 7–10 | Sydney
Finish in Sydney with the Opera House, harbor, coastal scenery and a private luncheon cruise before departure.
