Discover Oz with Pure Luxury Holidays

“Discover the Other Oz” with Pure Luxury Holidays and explore a country like no other. Nowhere in the world offers such a diverse range of experiences and landscapes from ancient Aboriginal culture and cosmopolitan cities to awe inspiring landmarks and captivating scenery.

Take a glimpse at the wonders of this great continent, with a trip to Melbourne and Victoria, South Australia and the Northern Territory. Distinctly individual, each state has its own unique characteristics, whether it’s red deserts and luscious rainforests, a plethora of natural wildlife or world renowned wineries and fine dining.

A visit to any of these destinations would be wonderful, but if you’ve time to combine all three then the holiday that awaits you will be magical. Enjoy three holidays in one as you explore the contrasting landscapes and experience the fascinating mix of culture that is the other Oz.

Start your holiday in Melbourne and Victoria and explore the lively, cosmopolitan city before touring the surrounding areas. Marvel at the extraordinary natural beauty of this compact state, from high in the mountains to the breathtaking coastline of the Great Ocean Road. Next visit South Australia and be delighted at the diverse range of inhabitants – the wildlife state is best epitomised by Kangaroo Island, where you will see most of Australia’s unique land and sea based animals in one place. Near Adelaide, spend a day dolphin watching, before sampling the local wines in the famous Barossa Valley or explore some of the area’s cultural attractions.

The Northern Territory is home to the real outback. Here you can stand in awe while the sun rises over the magnificent Uluru (Ayers Rock), see some of the world’s finest collections of aboriginal rock art in the World Heritage listed Kakadu National Park or sail a harbour twice the size of Sydney’s in Darwin, the Northern Territory’s vibrant capital city.
