Port Jackson Visit

Wondering where Port Jackson is? Well, it’s Sydney, the glorious capital of the state of New South Wales, one of the frequently voted beautiful Aussie cities. The harbour, housing the most famous Sydney landmarks can be seen as the best location you can spend quality time with your loved ones. But instead of signing up for a walking tour to enjoy the prime views of the harbour attractions, you can board one of the Port Jackson cruises. From a premium glass boat offering 360° uninterrupted harbour views to an authentic paddlewheeler with wrap-around verandahs and a purpose-built catamaran with expansive outer decks, there are many options you can choose from. Most of these vessels have onboard galleys and fully licensed bars to elevate your Sydney Harbour sightseeing and dining experience. So, enjoy the best views of the harbour attractions along with restaurant-quality dining aboard the port Jackson boat. Combine your freshly prepared dishes with the finest Aussie drinks and beverages available for purchase.

Kakadu National Park

Check out Kakadu National Park to witness the timeless natural beauty covering almost 20000 square kilometres. It may sound hard but certainly, it is not impossible. From prehistoric hunter-gatherers to the Aboriginal people, this location has been inhabited by people with different and distinct cultural and historic backgrounds for over 40000 years. Let me assure you, you will definitely get dazzled seeing the expansive wetlands, sandstone escarpments, and winding rivers there. Apart from the beautiful views of nature, you will also be able to encounter some of the Aussie terrestrial wildlife including flatback turtles, saltwater crocodiles, and more. You can also discover many cave paintings along your way that can definitely enlighten you with more specific details. Since it’s a location with great cultural and historic significance, the park has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage-listed Site.

Mount Kosciuszko

If you are an adventure-loving person and want to include a bit more adrenaline-inducing activity in your trip, then you can add climbing Australia’s tallest mountain, 7310 ft Mount Kosciuszko to your travel itinerary. Sign up for a day walk to the summit of Mount Kosciuszko and enjoy the absolutely breathtaking views of the rugged scenery of the National Park. It can also be seen as a great way to spend your day at the Snowy Mountains, in New South Wales. It's a gorgeous little ski village promising a high sensational experience.

Great Barrier Reef

If you love water-based activities such as snorkeling and surfing, you can check out the famous Great Barrier Reef, the world’s longest and largest coral garden. There are several points of interest for an in-water interaction and snorkeling among the coral formation. It can also be seen as an amazing opportunity to witness more than 1500 species of marine wildlife from this coral reef area. Always go through the Aussie weather calendar before narrowing down the date of your trip since the spawning season is the best time to see the corals giving birth.

Being breathtakingly beautiful and galore of innumerable natural and urban attractions, it's certain that Australia will never disappoint you at any cost. Plan your trip accordingly and enjoy Australia at its absolute best.
