Choose from an array of award-winning resort accommodation and tours from the red heart of Central Australia, the soothing green depths of the Daintree Rainforest, the vibrant colours of the Great Barrier Reef, to the vast canyons and rugged alpine mountains of Tasmania.

New Zealand is so uniquely, unfathomably exquisite that it can only be described as otherworldly. It’s natural beauty is nothing short of staggering. The landscape of the North Island veers between rolling, sheep studded pastures, colossal volcanoes, primordial forests of kauri trees and golden, secluded beaches. But it’s the South Island which boasts the rarest marvels. The tranquil, flooded valleys of the Marlborough Sounds. The giant humpback and sperm whales splashing and diving off the Kaikoura Peninsula. The Punakaiki pancake rocks, and the snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps. And the glacial waters and thundering waterfalls of the Milford Sounds.
300 tropical, coral-fringed islands make up Fiji, a mosaic of South Pacific, Asian and European cultures and religions, shaped by trade, exploration and empire. Just above the Tropic of Capricorn, the tropical Fijian climate means it never feels like winter here, whatever the time of year.
The Cook Islands - 15 islands in the heart of the South Pacific. These unique and friendly Polynesians have their own language and government and enjoy a vigorous and diverse culture with significant differences between each island. Despite some 90,000 visitors a year to the capital island – Rarotonga – the Cooks are largely unspoiled by tourism. They offer a rare opportunity for people from the cities of the world to experience a different type of vacation. There are no high-rise hotels, only four beach buggies and very little hype. Ideal for travellers seeking more than the usual clichés associated with the South Seas, each island has its unique qualities and offers the visitor a special experience.
French Polynesia is a group of idyllic islands and stunning atolls strewn across nearly one million square miles in the South Pacific. The most famous of these tropical island groups is Tahiti. The scenery is dramatic from beautiful beaches and mountain waterfalls to lush rainforest and crystal clear waters, while the Polynesian hospitality is warm, friendly and genuine making any visit to French Polynesia a really special experience.
