The Great Ocean Road Melbourne - Adelaide 4 day 3 night Tour

The tour was brilliant. Mick, our driver and guide, was very knowledgeable. He adapted the itinerary by adding in extra little stop-offs where we had time. He was great in keeping us informed about rest stops, food and other fundamental requirements. The actual tur was great - great scenery, wildlife and views of a small area of vast country.

Classic Larapinta Trek in Comfort

We had an amazing time! Our tour guides, Luke, Claire and Drew were kind, attentive, knowledgeable and genuinely nice people. The walks were wonderful, with some tough days followed by more leisurely days, with afternoon swims in billabongs. Sleeping under the stars was a highlight. I would recommend this trip to anyone who loves hiking and camping.

• Mountain Hikes

Kakadu's Ancient Secrets (5 Days)

We had a fantastic experience touring with our group. Wonderfully led by our guide Toni, and always feeling safe with Ollie behind the wheel. Accommodation was great and some delightful meals along the way. Unforgettable memories of a beautiful part of our country. Highly recommend this trip

Outback Safari (11 Days)

Tour guide & coach driver very good. Accommodation very good. Not sure how it could be organised on this tour, but needed a bit more down time or time on our own to relax. Out early most days & late afternoon arrival at motels.

Sydney to Brisbane – 8 Day Boutique Comfort Tour

• Sightseeing

3 Day Melbourne to Adelaide

Great tour, would use this group any time, friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, flexible and very sociable

3 Day Great Ocean Road and Grampians

This was our first time to Australia and we saw & learned so much in four packed days. Pierre was amazing, a non-stop stream of information on just about anything. I was constantly asking questions and never had one that he didn’t have the answer for. For example, while on the road between stops, I asked about the indigenous peoples of Australia and got a half hour thorough (and sometimes sad) lecture on their history. The hotels and included meals were first rate. Highly recommended.

What people love about luxury tours in australia.

I did this 4-day tour and I really enjoyed it. Jens, the guide, as well as all participants were very nice and warmhearted. I felt like I travelled with new friends. There were only 5 people in our group. I totally recommend this tour that includes amazing spots and sceneries. We were also lucky to see many animals (koalas, kangaroos, emus, fox, etc.).

Fantastic guides, really great camping set up, meals and route. The cultural component was also appreciated.

Luxury Vacations & Tours in Australia

Why should you travel to australia with us.

Back in 2003, the earliest idea of Black Tomato was dreamt up. And it happened on an Australian beach. You could say that it inspired everything we’ve done since.

The beach? Wineglass Bay, of course. These days, you’re more likely to find our founders on Lizard Island – with its 24 private beaches, all within diving distance of the Great Barrier Reef. When we got the company rolling, we decided to never lose sight of Australia. With over 15 years of contacts, local knowledge, and friendships, our bespoke itineraries to this golden, rich and rewarding country can truly deliver anything; from a chef’s-table tour of the picturesque Yarra Valley, blending your own wines under the tutelage of a Chief Winemaker, an exclusive ‘just you’ retreat at Kangaroo Island, or a private-plane transfer low over the bush toward a private camp in the Bamurru Plains. Anything is possible.

Example Australia trips

Ultimate australia: the icons, indonesia and australia: a luxury vacation of bali,…, southern discovery in australia, eater journeys: melbourne, south australia & victoria: a gourmet discovery, south australia: the epicurean way, south australia: perfect pairings, tasmania & south australia: a luxury coastal adventure, sydney, queensland & the great barrier reef: a…, coastal wilderness in western australia, queensland: a luxury escape to the great barrier…, create your own itinerary, what to see and do in australia.

As ever, if you can’t see it here then we can still plan it for you.

An irresistible concoction of unparalleled scenery, vibrant city-life, fine wines and active reefs, Australia is a place of dazzling discovery. One trip here and you’ll realize how much this country has to give, which is why our tailor-made tours to the land down under ensure your vacation flows seamlessly. For customizable itineraries including the best luxury hotels and most immersive tours – north, south, east, and west – you’ve come to the right location.

ALL ABOUT AUSTRALIA

The Great Barrier Reef – a medley of vivid colors and dynamic wildlife that’s completely unique to Australia. Consisting of over 900 islands, there’s more than one way to experience this world wonder. Observe it from the air, opt for scuba diving, or embark on a guided snorkelling tour; the choice is yours. One more question though: can we still call it a sliver of paradise if it can be seen from space?

SNORKEL THE GREAT BARRIER REEF

Easily one of the most recognizable skylines in the world, Sydney is an oceanside city that puts others to shame. While it’s worth its weight in gold with dazzling galleries, upbeat beaches, and boutique restaurants, it’s the Opera House and the Harbor Bridge that steal the spotlight. For a heart-pounding experience, climb the Harbor Bridge for 360-degree views of the city.

WALK THE HARBOUR BRIDGE

Our best piece of advice? Jump in a car and prepare to witness the vista that tops all vistas. One of the most popular road trips in the word, the Great Ocean Road is home to rock-stacks protruding from the sea, rolling hills, and dramatic crashing waves. If we coined the term ‘open-road tranquility’, a breezy day on a journey to the 12 Apostles would be the accompanying photo.

DRIVE THE GREAT OCEAN ROAD

The best of Australia

• Where to go
• The Best Hotels

Sydney & the blue mountains

Explore Australia’s iconic capital and the incredible range to its West.

Sparkling, sophisticated and confident, Sydney – backed by the range of the awe-inspiring Blue Mountains – embodies everything that is glamorous and modern about Australia. With a coastal path that stretches from Bondi to Coogee, the bustling harbor, the iconic Opera House, and trendy Newtown (with the eucalyptus forests, waterfalls and peaks of the National Park behind you), Sydney has much to offer.

The great barrier reef

It’s more than just a reef. It’s 1,900 reefs.

It is easy to throw out a cliche about the reef, that it is “out of this world.” But that wouldn’t be true. Here, from Lady Elliot Island and to the edge of New Guinea (some 2,300km away), the reef is an incredible and intricate labyrinth of cays, ribbons, islets, canyons and – of course – nature. You can sleep on private islands within diving distance of it (such as Kangaroo Island), or else take an expert-led tour of it by day. The nearby islands of the Whitsundays & Cairns offer an exotic stepping stone into this earthly paradise.

Melbourne (and beyond)

Art, culture and cuisine on Australia’s southeastern coast.

A theme emerges. That each great Australian city is paired with an incredible hinterland. For Melbourne, in Australia’s southeast, it’s the Mornington Peninsula and the Yarra Valley wine region). Trendy, easygoing, fun, Melbourne is all about plazas, bars, art and restaurants. In the Yarra Valley, we’ll pair you with expert sommeliers and local chefs to truly taste and sample the land that feeds this city.

Encompassing gleaming coastal cities and the oldest continuous culture on earth, famous beaches, iconic endemic wildlife with a vast landscape of red desert, alpine mountains, rainforests and coral reefs ripe for exploration.

There’s an innovative food scene, prestigious wine industry, vibrant art and a warm, laid-back people to welcome you. While not lagging far behind the United States in scale, Australia has a population of just 23 million who mostly live around the idyllic coast in modern cities such as Sydney , Melbourne , Brisbane  and Perth , leaving the immense centre as wilderness, affectionately known as the Outback .

There’s also the beautiful and remote Top End  sitting next to the equally remarkable state of Western Australia , unique islands such as Tasmania , Kangaroo Island and the white sanded Whitsundays that sit between the northeast coast of Queensland and the rich waters of the Great Barrier Reef .

Blessed with sunshine, it is a place where as much time as possible is spent outdoors, whether surfing, fishing, boating or barbecuing, and there’s no better way to experience Australia than by joining in.

And then there’s Australia’s wildlife, a long geographic period of isolation giving rise to a unique species – marsupials such as koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, wombats and bandicoots and egg-laying mammals, like the platypus – along with huge saltwater crocodiles, fearsome snakes and some of the best marine wildlife watching opportunities in the world.

Down South to Kangaroo Island, providing you a chance to see Australias endemic wildlife in the wild and Tasmania, for its rugged mountainous beauty, then journeying into Outback where you will find yourself surrounded by the scorched red earth and blanketed by the huge blue sky.

Where to go

Sydney boasts a rich and intriguing history, famous beaches and iconic landmarks.

New South Wales

On the east coast of Australia, boasting the beautiful city of Sydney at its heart.

Victoria and Melbourne

With handsome Victorian-era architecture, museums, galleries, theatres, green parks, and an innovative art and nightlife scene, this is undoubtedly Australia’s cultural heart.

Widely known for its vast expanses of unspoiled wilderness, diverse landscapes that range from rugged mountains and highland lakes to rainforests, cascading waterfalls and a dramatic coastline.

The northern reaches of Queensland are incredible sites for those who enjoy vast wilderness. Considered one of the great natural wonders of the world, the Great Barrier Reef is the biggest coral reef system on the planet.

A chain of 74 islands, four of which boast renowned luxury resorts, the Whitsunday Islands are found in the middle of the incomparable Great Barrier Reef just off the coast of Queensland.

Founded on the banks of its eponymous river, the old city of Brisbane is located between the famous Sunshine and Gold Coast, each a magnet for surfers and beach lovers.

South Australia

From the great stretching vastness of the wild Australian Outback to the charm of wine valleys and beaches of silver sand, your stay will be a memorable one.

Kangaroo Island

Kangaroo Island is a deceptively large island off the southern coast of Australia, not far from Adelaide, playing host to a magnificent wilderness, with large populations of the country’s beloved wildlife.

Australia’s Top End contains some of the few remaining expanses of genuinely untouched wilderness in the world, a remote haven that abounds with national parks and rugged beauty.

Perth and Margaret River

Perth can be found on the far west coast of the country, the capital city of Western Australia state, and while it may appear to be isolated from other major cities, it carries a uniquely laid back and cosmopolitan charm and has been voted as one of the most liveable modern cities, not just in Australia, but in the world.

There is both an extraordinary physical beauty, exquisite in its isolation, as well as a tangible spiritual energy that binds together the land and the people.

Western Australia

Western Australia has everything from vibrant cities and quaint vineyards to epic coastline and vast, open plains.

Luxury Rail Travel Australia

A great way to explore Australia is by luxury train, allowing you to cover vast distances in comfort and style while admiring the epic landscapes pass by.

Meet your Australasia team

When to visit

With Australia’s immense size and diverse landscapes, different regions are best visited at different times of year, and no matter the month, somewhere will be in its prime. The southern coastal cities are wonderful all year round, if a touch cooler in winter between May and August. This, however, is the ideal time to explore the Red Centre, Queensland, Great Barrier Reef and North West, areas which are very hot and humid in the summer.

The experience was great in that everything was handled down to the last detail. The accommodations were 5 Star, and the experiences were some that we would not have known about on our own.

My husband and I really enjoyed our Australia Whistle-Stop tour! Ellie did a fabulous job organizing it and allowing us to experience Sydney, The Blue Mountains, GBR and the Daintree Rainforest in 8 days. The private tours were top quality as were all of our accommodations especially The Chalets at Blackheath. We had an amazing tour by Tim and a…

Excellent venues, guides, well organized, and great choices on what to see and do, for a place we have never been. They really did a great job on catering to our preferences. Service level was excellent, and we were willing to do some extras for us. It might be the best trip we ever had.

Well planned trip for our Family. With four people traveling from three locations-different departure dates on both ends. Properly handled and coordinated all pickups and drop-offs along with private tours from every destination. Our destinations included Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, Cairns and Sydney.

The way Jacada planned the trip was very impressive. The people who assisted us, particularly Kit and Cathy, were very responsive not only during the planning stage but even while the trip was going on. It felt like we had our own concierge throughout the trip. Other groups we have engaged with in the past would be very attentive up…
