Alice Springs
Australia, the oldest continent on earth, is roughly the size of the USA. Its Great Dividing Range hugs the east coast, where the majority of its 18 million citizens live. West of the Range, rivers die in deserts which stretch to the Indian Ocean. Under brilliant blue skies lie millions of acres of red earth and salt bush. Early European explorers died of thirst not knowing the survival secrets that had allowed the Aborigines to survive this unforgiving climate for over 60,000 years. The Aborigines lived in harmony with the unique plant and animal life that adapted to the environment. No trip to Australia is complete today without visiting not just the sophisticated cities, but the outback. Whether you toss your swag by a billabong or spoil yourself in five star comfort, the chance to see koalas, kangaroos, the echidna, and magnificent bird life in the wild will be the highlight of your trip. The Great Barrier Reef’s 1,200 miles of living coral, cattle stations the size of Belgium, some of the world’s best wine, and meeting the friendly Aussies with their winning "give-it-a-go" attitude -- all make for a memorable trip.
