What travelers are saying

"The trip was absolutely incredible! As an Aussie, I was excited to explore parts of my own country I hadn’t visited before, and it turned out to be such a rewarding experience. I learned so much, particularly about First Nations culture, which was a major highlight for me. Some activities that I initially didn’t expect to enjoy ended up being surprisingly memorable. For instance, I’ve always disliked art classes because of my perfectionist tendencies, but the included Aboriginal art class ended up being one of the standout moments of the trip. If you’re considering this trip, my advice is to go in with an open mind. Push yourself to try new things—you’re unlikely to get another opportunity like this—but also remember to pace yourself. It’s just as important to schedule downtime to rest and recharge so you can fully enjoy the experience. The people in my Contiki group were absolutely amazing, which added so much to the trip. I do wish there were more days spent in Byron Bay, or even an alternative trip focused more on beachy, nature-based destinations rather than city stops—but both aspects of the itinerary had their own appeal. This trip is also fantastic for giving you a sense of which places you’d like to revisit and spend more time exploring in the future. A special shoutout to our trip manager, who was phenomenal and really elevated the whole experience. Her knowledge of plants, history, and culture gave me a deeper appreciation for the places we visited, which made the journey even more meaningful. She was very organised and told us exactly what we needed to know in little amounts so that it wasn't information overload. Overall, it was an unforgettable adventure, and I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat!"
