Australia, 16 Days · Classic tour

Melbourne, East Coast and Sydney

Discover with us Australia, a country that for years was hidden from the eyes of navigators and colonizers. If you have dreamed of this trip, all you have to do is make it a reality.

Everything in Melbourne is big. This Australian city, which extends over 10,000 square kilometers, is a modern and lively tourist destination full of attractions such as the historic center, the CBD (the financial district), the Royal Botanic Gardens, Abbostford Convent and the gigantic Melbourne Zoo . Take the opportunity to watch a spectacular Australian football match!

Embark upon this trip along the east coast of Australia to see some of the country's most iconic places. Enjoy one of the best beaches in the world and discover the country's incredible fauna, lush landscapes, and vibrant cities. This itinerary is the perfect complement to a stay in Sydney or a few beach days at the end of the trip.

Sydney is a city of many contrasts where you can get to know the essence of modern day Australia. In addition to the Opera or the Bridge, there are many places that stand out like the neighborhood of The Rocks, one of the most traditional areas of the city where you can find everything. Also do not miss its beautiful beaches of Bondi or Manly, the city's Chinatown, the Port, the Art Gallery of New South Wales or the Royal Botanic Garden.

Important remarks

- Triple rooms in Oceania are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.

- Check-in time at the hotel on the day of arrival depends on each establishment, but in no case will it be before 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise indicated.

- A moderate level of fitness is recommended.

- The order of the itinerary may be altered for logistical reasons, without prior notice, but no scheduled trips will be cancelled (except in the case that adverse weather conditions prevent its realisation).

- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.

- Prices are calculated based on admission fees to the sights as of the date of publication. If there is an increase in these prices, you will be promptly informed.

- If you are a person with reduced mobility, please contact us to confirm the suitability of the trip.

- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
