What Are the Top Destinations in Australia?

Australia tours and journeys may focus on parts of the country “down-under”, where its main cities are along the coast and its animal life make it a unique travel destination.

Below are our most visited cities, destinations and national parks in Australia.

Adelaide is the capital and largest city of Southern Australia. It can be the starting point for nearby wine degustation in the Barossa Valley as well as long distance train rides to Melbourne-Sydney or Darwin (the Ghan).

Alice Springs is located in the geographical heart of Australia, on the Ghan train route. The area has been inhabited for thousands of years by the original population of Australia. You can rent a 4WD or take a helicopter ride to Uluru.

Uluru (Ayers Rock) is a huge monolyte. Only 10% is above ground, the rest is below. The Rock is sacred for the original inhabitants of Australia - the Aboriginals. Since October 2019 it is no longer possible to climb to the top.

Cairns is close to the Great Barrier Reef and therewith a center for diving and excursions. The Great Barrier Reef is the largest coral reef in the world. It is approx. 2300 km long, the size of Germany or New Mexico and can be seen from outer space. A true Wonder of the Natural World.

The Daintree Rainforest is one of the last original rainforests in Australia and a UNESCO protected area.

Darwin is the place to be if you like nature and warmth. "Kakadu National Park" and crocodiles just around the corner. The Ghan starts here... This is the smallest provincial capital of Australia and quite close to Indonesia.

The Great Ocean Road is a very scenic stretch along the southern ocean, south-west of Melbourne. Many surfers have a great time here. Famous are the Twelve Apostles rock formations in the water.

Hobart is capital of the province Tasmania with the "best air" in Australia and relaxing it is. Discover the harbor and Salamanca markets. A real highlight in Hobart is nearby Mount Wellington with some of the best views, anywhere.

Travel by train and other public transportation

Train tours are comfortable and clean ways to travel short and long distance, especially in Europe and Asia. There is space for luggage and moving around with easy viewing of the landscape. Trains usually stop in city centres unlike airplanes.

Highspeed rail, with speed sometimes exceeding 300kms per hour, is especially noticeable in countries like Germany, France, Spain, China and Japan.
