Adelaide, Augusta

Highlights

  • Watch the night sky come alive during your night in Arkaroola Wilderness Sanctuary – there is no light pollution here, so it's the perfect place to stargaze among the mountainous peaks.

  • Soak up the scenic beauty of the Clare Valley – one of Australia’s most famous wine regions – and sample Rieslings and other fine wines.
  • Drive into the remote South Australian Outback and bounce along the famous Oodnadatta Track to William Creek where you can enjoy a cold beer and check out the unique ‘museum’ of memorabilia across the street.
  • Take a bushwalk in Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park, then head out on a private tour of Sacred Canyon, where you’ll learn about Aboriginal culture as you listen to the stories and insights from your Adnyamathanha guide. Later, take an optional hike in Wilpena Pound.

High Adventure

What travelers are saying

"My wife & I are Australians and have been to Asia many times but not to Japan. We had heard good things, so we jumped on to an Intrepid trip in April, 2025. Our Guide was Shizuka Yoshimura who, while being born in Japan, was a well-travelled, knowledgeable and enthusiastic woman who was fun to be with and proved very capable in leading 9 of us, aged between about 30 years of age to mid-70's, from 4 nations around her own country. Shizuka was very fluent in English which was brilliant. Experience counts, both in the present, coping with transport & other issues which always arise, and in the planning and communicating the next stage of the tour with the group. Shizuka adapted to both the more able-bodied and the less physically able with care and good grace, always making sure that all members of the party were happy and comfortable with decisions regarding , e.g. whether or not to climb a few hundred steps to see a castle, shrine, etc. Everyone was always looked after and meeting points along the way were well spelled out, so no one felt abandoned in any way. Our accommodation was as advertised, so in the case of staying at Hacone in a traditional style (with really low beds and no seating above floor level), Shizuka arranged for standard kitchen chairs to be placed in our room which was great - it's always the little things that matter. Our trip was based on traveling most of the way by Shinkansen (bullet trains) and sometimes the ticketing was not straight-forward, but it was well explained all of the time and Shizuka's planning smoothed out the bumps every time. Shizuka's "local knowledge", being Japanese, assisted our group many times along the way when things may not have been going according to plan and we always felt looked after and confident that "The Boss" would quickly resolve any hiccups. Equally, Shizuka often gave us our own space and when a group dinner was not a part of the agenda we sometimes shared meals with her apart from the group or vice-versa - there was a good, relaxed feeling in the group that we were our own mature travellers as well as being a part of the group. Look, I know that things can go wrong whether you are hiking out in the bush or traveling at 300 kp/h, but in our experience our Guide Shizuka was very well equipped personally to adapt and overcome, and we had a beaut trip. Highly recommended."

"The itinerary offered access to exhibits, castles and historic sites that we would not have otherwise visited. The schedule was just enough scheduled events and free time to explore on our own. The hotels and coach were very comfortable. The Tour Director was very organized, friendly and helpful."

Different Ways to Tour Australia 

Explore Australia through various means of travel, each offering a unique perspective on this vast and diverse land. 

  • Cruises: Embark on a scenic cruise along Australia's coastline, exploring destinations like the Great Barrier Reef and Sydney Harbour. Companies like Princess Cruises offer itineraries that visit iconic ports such as Melbourne, Brisbane, and Cairns.
  • Driving Tours: Hit the open road on a self-drive adventure, traversing iconic routes like the Great Ocean Road or the Red Centre Way. Rent a car from reputable companies and explore at your own pace, stopping to admire natural wonders like Uluru or stunning coastal vistas.
  • Train Journeys: Experience the beauty of Australia's landscapes from the comfort of a train carriage. The Indian Pacific train journey traverses the continent from Sydney to Perth, offering luxurious accommodations and breathtaking views of the Outback. Alternatively, explore the lush rainforests of Queensland aboard the Kuranda Scenic Railway, winding through the UNESCO-listed Barron Gorge National Park.
Souvenirs from Australia

Buying souvenirs from a destination allows us to take a piece of our vacation home. While Australia may appear similar to the U.S. or England, this vast country has its own unique features you may want to take home with you. 

  1. Opals: Australia is known for having some of the best opals in the world. They are of high quality and make for a great gift. 
  2. Tim Tams: A true Australian treat, Tim Tams are chocolate-covered biscuits often paired with Australia's favorite beverage, coffee. 
  3. Vegemite: One of Australia's more interesting food choices, Vegemite is a thick black spread used for toast. It is an acquired taste, and those who have never tasted it may find it tart and tangy.
  4. Boomerangs: We all have seen the movies of Aussies throwing boomerangs, but they are one of the country's most famous icons and a pretty neat object to take home with you.
  5. UGG Boots: The most famous souvenir is sheepskin UGG boots worn around the country. They are primarily used indoors in Australia as slippers and not for outdoors, but wear switched when they gained popularity in other parts of the world.
