What is Australia known for?

Must-see landmarks

Traditional beverages

Landscape and wildlife

Take in the sights then wander through the magnificent Chinese Garden of Friendship and rest with a traditional Chinese tea whilst admiring the glistening waterfalls. Come dusk, take in some fine dining amongst the lights of the harbour then head to King’s Cross for the nightlife. One of the founding members of the United Nations, this commonwealth, where the largest property is bigger than Belgium, boasts an entire portfolio of both natural wonders. Kings Canyon in the Northern Territory is a sensational gorge to rival the Grand Canyon and to the south, admire the UNESCO World Heritage Site Ayres Rock (Uluru). 

Most know that Australians are the kings of barbecue, but the country is also home to some fantastic wine regions and Hunter Valley on the east coast is the oldest one. Here you’ll unearth more than 150 wineries producing world-class wines so pull up a chair, order a glass of Semillon and reflect on the wonders you’ve absorbed during your stay.

If you’ve got time, the Great Barrier Reef – one of the most famous reef systems on the planet that’s visible from outer space – is well worth a visit. Snorkel or dive amongst this captivating ecosystem and discover a whole other world of unique marine creatures that could, if you’re lucky, include turtles in amongst the vibrant fish and coral.
