- AFrances· June 5th, 2025It was a wonderful tour of Australia and New Zealand. All three logistics were perfect from the internal plane flights in Australia, the great hotels in both locations, the buses and excursions. Tour guide Gavin was very knowledgeable and I enjoyed his walk abouts in Sydney, Cannes and Melbourne, banter and informative stories. It was very interesting to hear from indigenous elders about their history. Having group dinners when we got to a new city were much appreciated and the food at all of them were outstanding Enjoyed all our excursions but much to my surprise the camel walk to see sunrise at Uluru was my favorite. Loved seeing the animals that have been rescued in wildlife parks. Petting kangaroos and holding a koala was fun. And learning more about the indigenous on our waka waka boat ride on Avon Lake was interesting too. The sunset at Mt. Cook was amazing as was the clear viewing of Mt. Cook itself.. Would definitely recommend Collette and this tour.Show moreTrip date: February 2025Review collected by Collette
