With amazing Australia on your doorstep, the perfect Australia holiday awaits - jet-lag free!

Visit Australia for that holiday experience you will never forget. Explore the Great Barrier Reef. Appreciate the World's oldest Rainforest. Meet our unique wildlife.

Australia offers so much that it's difficult for the average Australian, let alone an overseas tourist, to decide where to go and what to do. This website aims to break it down into manageable chunks, or areas, and make it easier for a non-Australian to take it all in.

For many Northern Hemisphere expats, Australia is one of those places they'd like to visit but it seems a very long way away and a bit daunting.The opportunity to travel in Australia becomes much more attractive with a work-posting in Asia, as it is located in far closer proximity to Australia. It is therefore an opportunity not to be missed, a must-do event.

  • With only an 11 hour overnight flight from China - Have dinner in China and breakfast in Sydney!
  • No jetlag (only +2 hours from China)

Your fee – I did a lot of work for this trip but that is the way I like to plan a trip. You made sure I was headed in the right direction and gave me some great advice. The way you handled our cyclone evacuation was beyond wonderful. I definitely think your fee was reasonable.
Thank you for everything. Jennifer J, Shanghai

Hi Vicki, We had an excellent trip. Thanks very much for all your help in putting it together. First, did I find your consultancy valuable? Absolutely. When we started to plan an Australia trip it was overwhelming. It's a huge country, so your help in narrowing down the possibilities of where to go and what to see and focusing us were really essential. I think we would have been quite a bit more scattered in our approach had we done it ourselves, and we probably would have missed some really great things. Of course, we had guide books. I think the first thing everybody does is go out and buy one or two, but having someone to consult with who knows the country was really a big help. Thanks so much for all your help in making our first trip to Australia such a success. We had a wonderful time.
Best, Dave H, Shanghai

Dear Vicki, We had an absolutely fantastic vacation in Australia! Even though every place had its special things, I liked The Kimberly's the best because that was really "Australia" for me, the nature, the dirt roads, the 4W tracks and last but certainly not least the "dust". All in all again a great vacation "Down Under". Thanks again, we truly enjoyed your wonderful country! Hope we will still have a chance to visit Australia in the future and maybe visit the south Hi Vicki, We had a great time in Australia. We loved Sydney and would go back in an instant. Restaurants were fantastic. Our favourite being the Italian place you recommended. We ate there twice!with its nice wineries!
Warm regards, Mirjam H, Moscow

Dear Vicki, Firstly we want to stress that EVERYTHING was perfectly organized and we felt during the whole trip very comfortable. It is not easy to describe high- and lowlights as there were only highlights. We also thought during our flight back and the following days if we - next time - would do anything differently and found out that we would just do the tour exactly the same way. There is nothing we would like to leave out (and most probably there would be still a lot to add). We had a fantastic vacation and we are convinced that this had not been possible without the help of Vicki. Certainly the consultancy fee was worth the money. We not only will book our next Australia vacation (which we definetly want to do!) with the help of Vicki, but we will also highly recommend her services to others.
Many thanks and best regards, Bernhard F, Shanghai

Dear Vicki, Commenting on my Australia trip, I want to say that it was a superb unforgettable holiday and many thanks for your good preparation and itinerary. It was my first ever visit to Australia and without your help I would not have been able to plan for such an interesting trip. I liked all towns/places you had scheduled in my itinerary. Deepest impressions I had from Sydney, Katoomba, Hunter Valley, Byron Bay and Brisbane. Motoring about 2000 km on different kinds of roads was an enjoyment as such and gave me a possibility to see beautiful countryside, endless forests, mountains with most different shapes, big rivers, steep seaside cliffs, etc... Driving left side of the road was easier than I thought, even in big cities, thanks to friendly driving culture of the people. I would like to visit Australia again after 2 or 3 years to see new places again, maybe southern Australia.
Best regards, Eero M., Finland

Hi Vicki, We had an absolutely wonderful holiday in Australia - certainly the best we've had with kids! And we were really lucky with the weather - hardly a gloomy day, and only a few spots of rain - or did you fix that for us too?!? Our judgement was right to prioritise wildlife & opportunities to see, feed, touch, etc. The kids' favourite parts were: Australia Zoo - we went with friends on our first Friday, outside of school holidays, and it was lovely & quiet, and the kids loved being able to feed the kangaroos & the elephants, stroke the koalas, and follow the lizards around , Benbellen Farmstay - again the kids were in their elements feeding the alpacas, geese, hens, following Soccie (the dog) around - and loved exploring & paddling in the creek just down the hill , Dolphin spotting in Port Stephens and the Seaplane in Sydney - 30 mins from Rose Bay up to Palm Beach, back over Middle Harbour and to the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. We felt we got good value from your consultancy fee. You saved us $'00s on our flights from Shanghai compared to what we'd found online and via local travel agents. Your initial sample itinerary was really good, additional options spot on, and advice on & booking of tours much appreciated. Can't think of anything else you could do for clients in the future. Thank you very much once again from all of us for a truly wonderful adventure in Australia!
Best regards, Neil, Jill, Jemma & Ben W-G, Shanghai

Vicki, Our experience as a whole is that we had a great vacation and we enjoyed a great mix of city, beach, exploring and experiencing Australia. I have already recommended your work to several of our friends!
Regards, Anna T and family, Shanghai

Hi Vicki, We had a great trip and enjoyed every part of it – so not really a favourite part as we had a good programme with a lot of different adventures. I am ready to leave again tomorrow! Regarding the consultancy fee we have absolutely nothing to complain about – you have handled things in a very thoughtful, personal and proactive way right from the beginning. And with a lot of focus on the well-being of the whole family.
Thanks for that. All the best, Rikke & Stig W, Shanghai
