Dreams Realized.Savor a shrimp off the barbie, snuggle up to a koala,

or speed along the rails through the Australian

outback. Every Globus tour always includes the

legendary landmarks, the major attractions, and

the must-sees in history. Going beyond the iconic

exteriors, we lead you to the front of the line, straight

through the door, and inside the walls of the South

Pacific’s most awe-inspiring places for an exclusive

look behind the scenes. With priority access, we

ensure you behold the sights you’ve long dreamed

of—without the wait.

Local FavoritesLocal Favorites Local Favorites are unique insider experiences you wouldn’t find traveling on your own—and they’re a highlight of every Globus vacation. To see which

Local Favorites are included on each tour, just look for the icons highlighted in every itinerary.

Do as the Locals Do.When in Rome—or Sydney, Melbourne, or Auckland—we arrange for you to do as the locals do, not just

what the tourists do. In every itinerary, we include hands-on, authentic experiences for a true taste of

a day in the life. Learn to hang ten on Bondi Beach or rub elbows with kangaroos in their outback

sanctuary. Feast in a forest with the warriors of Tamaki Máori in Rotorua, or breathe in the bouquet

of a New Zealand wine in Queenstown. Say hello to the devil on the Tasmanian Peninsula or see

angelfish through a glass-bottom boat off Cairns. Dance to the tune of different cultures and

walk in someone else’s shoes to experience the world from an insider’s perspective.

vacation includes local experts to share the stories behind the sights and local favorites you won’t find in the

that bring our guests’ travel dreams to life. Sharing

the sunset and stars at Uluru (Ayers Rock) and the

but the letters and photographs she receives from

her guests after a vacation “Down Under” brings real

joy to this Aussie’s heart! In her off time, Juliet enjoys

swimming and sailing off Sydney’s Northern Beaches.

itinerary so you can explore by trail ride, zip line, or vintage wine. Don’t wait a lifetime for

that once-in-a-lifetime experience that’s waiting just around the corner!

We’ve Spent Over 90 Years Planning your Vacation. When you select a Globus vacation, you’re choosing experience, passion, and perfection. Our dedication

began over nine decades ago when a young Antonio Mantegazza became inspired to share the

stories of his home while using his family’s rowboat to transport lumber across beautiful

Lake Lugano in Switzerland. He soon began transporting tourists instead, and what

began on a spring day in 1928 blossomed into the worldwide name in travel.


And We’ve Made Many Friends Along the Way.And We’ve Made Many Friends Along the Way. When you’ve been showing the world to travelers for more than nine decades, people take notice.

Laugh and the kookaburras laugh with you. Cry and the

kookaburras still laugh. That’s the beauty of a journey

to happy-go-lucky Australia where sunny days are

accentuated by its even sunnier inhabitants. Koalas,

kangaroos, wallabies, and wombats are among the many

locals eager to greet you on this breezy tour of Australia.

With visits to four wondrous waterfront cities, you’ll easily

see why the world gushes about the land Down Under.

Go behind the scenes at Brisbane’s Australia Zoo, snorkel

above the colorful coral at the Great Barrier Reef off the

coast of Cairns, and devour the panoramic scenery and a

delicious lunch at the iconic Sydney Opera House. With

two free days in eclectic Melbourne, you can also gobble

up all the goodies this hipster city and surrounding areas

have to offer. Perhaps take in the Penguin Parade at

KATHERINE GORGE

The right vacation to Australia can easily transport

you to another state of mind, especially if it includes a

crocodile cruise in Darwin, a glass-bottom-boat tour at

the Great Barrier Reef, a wetlands cruise on the Yellow

Water Billabong, and many other exciting modes of

transportation. The most moving experience on this

grand tour of Australia, however, is an overnight rail

journey on the legendary The Ghan Train—an exhilarating

crossing through the heart of the Australian Outback

to the tropical coast of the Northern Territory. A stop to

cruise through the majestic Katherine Gorge offers the

perfect opportunity to stretch your legs and imagination.

As you venture in every direction on this encompassing

tour of Australia—including untamed Tasmania—you’ll

also be moved by big-city lights, Red Center sunsets,

growling Tasmanian devils, and calm, cuddly koalas. All

aboard for an above-and-beyond adventure through the

“Land Down Under”.

ALL ABOARD!

Your TrainYour Train Journey Beyond Railways The Ghan train is an Australian legend taking travelers through the heart of Australia. It takes its name from the pioneering Afghan cameleers who blazed a permanent trail into the “Red Center of Australia” 150 years ago. Experience this fascinating train journey in the comfort of Gold Service, featuring private overnight sleeper cabins, a separate restaurant car, and access to the Outback Explorer Lounge, the perfect place to gather with friends to enjoy a drink as you marvel at the spectacular Australian landscapes.

It’s true that sheep outnumber people in New Zealand

six to one, but lucky for ewe, this untamed land also

boasts an impressive number of soaring mountains, lush

rainforests, and stunning fiords. The North Island’s Bay of

Plenty sets the stage for the abundance of spectacular

sights you’ll see on both of New Zealand’s breathtaking

islands. Rotorua’s shooting geysers are only surpassed

by the South Island’s soaring Southern Alps, which you’ll

reach from charming Christchurch by way of the scenic

TranzAlpine train. Throughout your tour of New Zealand,

you’ll have the opportunity to walk along the Franz Josef

Glacier, warm your toes in natural hot springs, and partake

in all of the fun that Queenstown, the “Adventure Capital

of the World,” has to offer. With so many ways to work

up an appetite, you’ll appreciate a special barbecue on

a local farm and a traditional cooked-in-the-ground hot

stone Hangi dinner.

We’re proud to partner with some of the world’s finest hotels, most of which are rated as deluxe (D), superior first-class (SF), or first-class (F) by our strict quality control team based on the Hotel & Travel Index and by national tourist boards. We also insist that our hotels provide you with complimentary Wi-Fi in the lobby. While hotels are listed on each itinerary, it may be necessary to substitute an alternate property of equivalent standards

when circumstances arise. Your travel documents will list hotel addresses and telephone numbers, plus you can find more details on our website. See our terms and conditions for room configurations and details.

Traveling in StyleTraveling in StyleWhen you step aboard your Globus private deluxe motorcoach, you’ll be immediately impressed by the comfort and amenities: reclining seats with extra leg room and individual air-conditioning vents, high-fidelity speakers delivering clear commentary by your Globus Tour Director, and an onboard restroom for urgent use between stops when you need it. While other tour operators pack their motorcoaches with 53 passengers, Globus groups are typically just 36 guests, and small group departures average just 20

guests. We extend this careful consideration of your comfort and exceptional travel experience to the flights, rail, and cruising portions of your vacation.

Included MealsIncluded MealsEnjoy included daily breakfast and carefully selected lunch and dinner experiences that deliver authentic and local and local flavors. Scheduled meals should be balanced with the freedom to explore local cafés and restaurants on your own, which is why our itineraries are designed without certain meals in locations where dining is a major attraction! Oftentimes, your itinerary will also include sampling regional specialties. Some hotels and restaurants may be able to accommodate special diet requests but,

unfortunately, we cannot guarantee the availability or cost of special requests. Your Tour Director is always happy to help.
