Australasia Coach Tours - Australasia Escorted Holidays

There is no place in the world quite like Australia and New Zealand and the smallest continent offers arguably the largest sights and experiences, with incomparable scenery, rugged beauty, irresistible cities and fabulous resorts.

On a Milestones escorted coach tour of Australia, you will experience sights like no other, with incomparable scenery, rugged beauty, irresistible cities and fabulous resorts. From the ancient wonder of Ayers Rock and the glory of the Great Barrier Reef, to the fascinating sightseeing of Harbour bridge and Opera House in Sydney, Australia is a country of huge diversity. With lush rainforests, the remarkable Red Centre, abundant wildlife, white-sand beaches and tropical waters there is no better way to explore Australia than on a Milestones escorted tour.

New Zealand's amazing landscapes, lush forests, breath taking wildlife and pleasant climate make it a haven for the traveller as well as a great place to unwind. New Zealand society is diverse, sophisticated and multicultural community with a delightful friendliness from the general public.

There are six states in Australia - New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania - and two territories - the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory.
The states and territories each have a capital city, flag and even their own flora and fauna emblems. Australia is also responsible for administering seven external territories: Norfolk Island, the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Christmas Island, the Ashmore and Cartier Islands Territory, the Territory of Heard Island, the Coral Sea Islands Territory, the sub Antarctic McDonald Islands and the Australian Antarctic Territory.

Being the last major landmass to be discovered, New Zealand is the youngest country on earth, with vast open spaces filled with rugged landscapes, superb beaches, often spectacular geothermal and volcanic activity, a temperate climate and fascinating animal and plant life, with varied landscapes so close to each other, it is no wonder New Zealand is fast becoming one of the most popular destinations for the discerning traveller.

Milestones first class tours to Australasia offer the very best in escorted touring holidays with included visits to Melbourne, Sydney, Alice Springs, Ayers Rock, Great Barrier Reef, Cairns, Auckland, Christchurch, Rotorua, Franz Josef and Milford Sound.
