dart river tour.. and .driving thru south island....
Coral Princess Cruise
Garry Plant did a great job of picking the proper level and locations for hotels & other lodgings.
Any included meals other than the Melbourne Tram dinner were meal included with tours or cruises.
All of the local guide & tour operators the we were assigned were oustanding. Our only dissapointment was day #3 of Kuranda & Arnem land...it was almost a repeat of day #2. Some groups went to the "falls" on day 3...we think that was better.
Not one missed pick-up, reservation confusion, flight problem or tour problem in the whole trip!! I think we must have had about 50 different vouchers for transport, hotels, side trips and tours...not even one small issue in the whole bunch...well done!!!
Australia: Aborigine bush country; Sounds of Silence Dinner in the desert; snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef; Rain Forest in Queensland. New Zealand: Christchurch, Queesntown and Milford Sound.
