Itinerary
Days 1-2
Fly from UK to Cairns
Day 3
Cairns
Arrive in Cairns, gateway to the underwater wonders of the Great Barrier Reef. Here you can wander along the sunny esplanade, take a dip in the lagoon, perfect for those hot summer evenings, or try out one of the many exciting restaurants and bars along the seafront. If you have time, perhaps pop in to Cairns’ Botanic Gardens, home to plenty of lush tropical plants, and filled with information about how indigenous species are used by the Aboriginal people. While you’re here, don’t miss exploring the Great Barrier Reef, be it by snorkel, boat, semi-sub or seaplane.
Days 4-15
Brisbane
Pick up your campervan and begin exploring. The beauty of this Journey is that you can choose your own route, stopping as and when you like. You can swim in the freshwater lakes and creeks of Fraser Island, laze on the beautiful white sands of Whitehaven Beach and soar high on a hot-air balloon ride over Port Douglas. Or why not jump on board a boat and sail to one of the world’s most beautiful beaches at Whitehaven, looking out for whales in the warm turquoise waters of Hamilton Island? Bring your camera for your Koala and River Cruise in Brisbane where you’ll get up close to the loveable residents of the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary.
