Australia & New Zealand

The unimaginable vastness of the country gives Australia – and its diverse population – much of its character. Scattered along the coasts, Australia’s cities blend a European enthusiasm for art and food with a laid-back love of sport and the outdoors. In cities, you’ll experience a blur of fashion boutiques and crowded restaurants while in the “outback” of Australia’s interior the only sounds you’ll hear are the ancient tunes of the didgeridoo, the thump of rocks under your jeep and the slow, silent swirl of outback dust. Around the coast and on the surrounding islands like Tasmania, you’ll take in the depths of a rainforest, swim, surf and snorkel in some of the most famous waters on earth including the Great Barrier Reef and experience some of the friendliest, most fun people on the planet.

New Zealand’s awesome landscapes, lush forests, amazing wildlife and pleasant climate make it a haven for outdoor activities, and a great place to unwind. New Zealand society is diverse, sophisticated, and multicultural, and the honesty, friendliness, and openness of Kiwis will impress you. With over a thousand years of human settlement, New Zealanders have a unique and dynamic culture, with European, Maori, Pacific and Asian influences. It’s a culture that celebrates the many different lifestyles New Zealanders live, and the stories they have to tell. With vast open spaces filled with stunning rugged landscapes, gorgeous beaches, spectacular geothermal and volcanic activity, a temperate climate and fascinating animal and plant life, it is no surprise New Zealand’s natural environment is so attractive.
