9 Night Australia Wine & Tasmania

Considered one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the Southern Hemisphere, Sydney offers just about anything—from beaches and wineries to stunning landmarks and world-class shopping. Tour architectural marvels like the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge, view life below the surface from Sydney Aquarium’s underwater walkways, or take it all in from above on a tour of the Sydney Tower.

Docking in Hobart gives you immediate access to Mount Wellington and its incredibly beautiful surroundings. From there you can look out over the busy harbor, which plays host to yachts from all over the world. The Salamanca Arts Centre also puts the region’s incredible artwork on display, including some stunning Aboriginal pieces. Or, if you’re looking for something less formal, just wander about the streets listening to street buskers, or stop into a pub and sample local wines.

Adelaide’s wide thoroughfares and graceful cosmopolitan style give way to a variety of activities that lie just outside the city limits. Sample wines from the more than 200 local vineyards that take advantage of the cool inland climate of the Adelaide Hills, or visit one of several wildlife sanctuaries. You can also visit Cleland Wildlife Park to wander amongst kangaroos, wallabies and emus, or tour the Warrawong Sanctuary to spot exotically named species like brush-tailed bettongs or bilbies.

Europeans and Asians each have put their stamp on this amazing city and turned Melbourne into a cultural melting pot of Greek, Chinese, Italian, English and Irish, and host to major international events. From the Old World architecture and a cricket field at the center of the city, to the abundance of Australia’s unusual animals found at the Melbourne Zoo, this city never ceases to amaze.
