Vacation In Australia

Arriving in Australia, you may only know a little bit of lingo, like "g'day Mate" or "throw a shrimp on the barbie," or perhaps you came to see the Sydney Opera House and a kangaroo.

There is so much to uncover in the many intriguing cities of this continent, each with its own distinctive charm. Some people prefer the "outback" experience, scouting for dingos and roos over bumpy terrain, while others prefer a soaking wet and wild journey under the sea, scuba diving down to the Great Barrier Reef.

No matter what your idea of Australia entails, you can anticipate one of the most enjoyable trips imaginable!

Melbourne Australia, on the southeastern coast, is the second largest city and was settled by the British; rather than by convicts. When gold was discovered in Australia the 1800s, a flood of immigrants came from Southeast Asia and the Mediterranean regions, which contributes to the modern diversity of shops, restaurants and architecture.

Australian rules football, the Australian Tennis Open and the Melbourne Cup, which are all located here. You can also see some architectural wonders in the Queen Victoria Market or walk through a number of national parks with striking scenery.

Lastly, Perth, in Western Australia, offers visitors easy navigation around the high rises via motorized trams and courtesy buses. Situated in the city center is Kings Park, which is 400 hectares of natural Australian bush, providing you with a glimpse of Australia's aboriginal past.

Fantastic beaches and nightlife characterize this city that thrives by day and night. Some of the hippest art hotspots can be found in the Northbridge Neighborhood. To see all that West Australia has to offer, Perth is a great meeting point where you can travel to wineries, the ocean and port cities within 30 minutes.
