For such a far-away continent, Australasia feels instantly familiar, with many of its most famous images emblazoned in popular culture. We visit a large number of these on our train holidays in Australasia, taking in a variety of classic landscapes - from the celebrated Great Barrier Reef under Australia's seas to the mighty Uluru rock in the heart of the desert.
We also take in many amazing natural wonders on our New Zealand tour, such as the idyllic Bay of Islands, the vast Franz Josef glacier, and some of the ever-popular Lord of the Rings film locations.
Of course our Australasian rail holidays also take in the main cities, such as Auckland in New Zealand or Sydney in Australia, where you can admire the iconic Opera House and the graceful Harbour Bridge.
As with any of our rail holidays, our Australasian tours include not only great hotels and the services of a professional Tour Manager, but also high quality travel on many classic rail routes.
