Itinerary

100% customisable for you

Head to the airport for your flight to Australia this morning. To get to your final destination of Brisbane you'll need to stop en route from London so let us know your preferences and we'll find the right route for you, and can even work a short break in the connecting destination into the itinerary. Whichever route you choose, you're looking at around 23 hours of total flying time, landing tomorrow.

Time flies when you're having fun and all too quickly today marks the start of the final chapter of your trip. Say goodbye to the tablelands and hop in the car to make the short two hour drive north-east to the coast. Here you'll be staying almost on the meeting point of two UNESCO recognised regions, The Great Barrier Reef and The Daintree rainforest. This is the only place in the world that two UNESCO sites meet like this, which gives you some idea of the beautiful setting you're heading for.

When you arrive, check in and then spend the afternoon exploring the area, either on the beach or in the middle of the lush trees that surround your hotel. Keep an eye out for wildlife too: land and water-based wildlife are both abundant here.

The last day of a holiday is always an important one; it provides time to sit back and reflect on all that you've done and to pack in anything that you haven't yet enjoyed. Though we're pretty sure you've had a taste of almost all the best Queensland has to offer on your trip so far, there might be one or two things you want to make sure you do today. From taking a guided tour of a coconut plantation or getting all Attenborough on a guided nature walk to meeting members of the local indigenous community, there is something for everyone here. And if you'd prefer a lazy day, the beach is just steps away where there's a sun lounger with your name on it.

Top off the day with dinner in the treetops and a toast to a great holiday.
