Australia and New Zealand Uncovered

From sacred stories to stunning natural wonders, journey through Australia and New Zealand, where untamed landscapes, captivating cities, and the enduring legacy of Aboriginal communities and Maori culture invite you to connect with the heart of the South Pacific.

Arrive in Adelaide, South Australia’s coastal capital. As arrival times will vary throughout the day, take time to settle in with no scheduled activities until late this afternoon, when you’ll meet for a briefing about the journey ahead. Tonight, gather with your fellow travelers for a welcome dinner.

Treat your taste buds to a full-day exploration of the Barossa Valley’s fine food and wine. Visit a local farmstead famed for its produce and enjoy a private interactive cooking demonstration. Your vintner voyage continues with a tour and tasting at the famous Seppeltsfield Winery, one of the oldest in the Barossa Valley, followed by lunch.

Fly from Adelaide to the spiritual heart of the Outback — Uluru. Upon arrival, travel into Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, where the iconic red monolith rises dramatically from the flat desert landscape. On a guided tour of Uluru's base, uncover the stories, traditions, and deep cultural significance of this site through the lens of Australia's Aboriginal people. As the sun begins to set, sip drinks and savor canapés while the colors of Uluru change before your eyes.
