Itinerary

Jindabyne

DAY 1 - Sydney to Thredbo Alpine Village(via Canberra)

Our first stop today is the capital city of Australia, Canberra where the Prime Minister hangs out. We’ll take you to the top of Mt Ainslie so you can see for yourself how a custom-made capital city was built. We also do a tour of Parliament House, then check out a few embassies and see other city highlights before travelling back on to Thredbo Alpine Village.

Meals: Breakfast

DAY 2 - Thredbo to Lakes Entrance via Snowy River Country

Grab your hiking boots and cameras because this morning we’re going to the “Roof of Australia”. We catch the express chairlift up the mountain. The chairlift is your own expense, but you can get this at a mega-cheap rate! You can walk to the summit of Mt Kosciuszko, which is Australia’s highest mountain, or to the viewing point. After lunch, it’s a spectacular drive along The Barry Way, watching the Snowy River wind along below us. Tonight we stay in the coastal town of Lakes Entrance, the Gateway to the Gippsland Lakes and Australia’s longest beach – Ninety Mile Beach.

Meals: Breakfast, Dinner
In ski season - from June to the end of September - we stay in Jindabyne. During winter, we’ve got time to play in the snow at the ski resort of Perisher/Smiggins (optional toboggan hire or snow tube at own expense).

DAY 3 - Lakes Entrance to Wilsons Promontory National Park and Melbourne

We travel to Wilsons Promontory National Park to explore the coastal wilderness of this pristine national park. Watch out for wildlife! We’ll finish our tour travelling to Melbourne through pastoral landscapes in South Gippsland.

Meals: Breakfast
