Cities, coast, wilderness and extraordinary private lodges across a continent
Australia rewards travellers who think in regions rather than trying to see everything at once. Sydney and Melbourne provide polished city stays, while the Great Barrier Reef, Tasmania, the Red Centre, the Kimberley, wine regions and long stretches of coast each offer a completely different journey.
Distances are substantial, so strong itineraries concentrate on a handful of experiences and use domestic flights intelligently. Luxury lodges, island retreats and private touring can turn remote landscapes into comfortable, highly personal experiences without diluting their sense of place.
Where to explore in Australia
Our current Australia collection takes in Adelaide, Albany, Apollo Bay, Bamurru Plains, Barossa Valley, Blue Mountains, Brisbane, Bullo River Station, Byrons Bay, Cairns, Cape Range National Park, Cradle Mountain Lake St Clair National Park, Daintree Rainforest & Cape Tribulation, El Questro Wilderness Psrk, Flinders Range, Fremantle, Freycinet National Park, Grampians National Park, Great Ocean Road, Hamilton Island, Hobart, Hunter Valley, Jervis Bay, Kangaroo Island, Katherine, Kings Canyon & Watarrka National Park, Launceston, Lizard Island, Lord Howe Island, Maragret River, Melbourne, Mornington Peninsula, New South Wales, Ngarrabullgan, Orpheus Island, Perth, Port Douglas, Port Fairy, Port Stephens, Queensland, Sunshine Coast, Sydney and Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Each area has been selected because it adds something distinct to a tailor-made journey, whether that is wildlife, landscape, culture, food, coast or simply the chance to slow the pace.
Rather than treating these as a checklist, we can help decide which regions belong together and how long to spend in each. The aim is a journey that feels coherent, with sensible transfers and enough time to enjoy the properties and experiences along the way.
Who Australia suits
Australia works particularly well for families, couples, food and wine travellers, nature lovers and longer journeys where variety is as important as a single headline attraction. The detail can then be shaped around the people travelling – preferred pace, room or villa requirements, interests, celebrations and how much structure you want built into each day.
Planning your stay
Private Hideaway Escapes can arrange the complete journey, including handpicked accommodation, private transfers, internal flights where appropriate, guides and experiences. We can also combine Australia with another destination when the routing genuinely improves the trip rather than simply adding another stop.
