Australia and New Zealand: Surfing Waves & The Whitsundays
Get ready to dive into a coast lover's dream down under. This 25-day adventure is packed with so much water time, you might want to bring a few extra swimsuits. Start in New Zealand’s North Island, where you'll surf, kayak, and cruise Lake Taupo. Then, hop over to Australia and journey from sunny Sydney to Cairns. Perfect your surf skills at camp, cruise through the Whitsundays, and spend a night with Indigenous hosts on K'gari (Fraser Island). When you're finally out of the water, kick back with a cold one and toast to new friends and epic memories.
Highlights
Adventure through the best of New Zealand's North Island, Explore the seaside city of Sydney, Experience indigenous Australian culture in K'gari.
Accomodation
Multi-share accommodation is a popular style of travel in New Zealand and Australia, and it’s how you’ll spend most of your nights on this trip. This typically means sharing a room with 4–8 fellow travellers. Rooms are generally split by gender, and most will have shared bathroom facilities.
When staying in multi-share accommodation, we’re unable to take any rooming requests.
Accommodation will vary throughout your journey - some stops may not provide towels or soap, so we recommend bringing your own. Bathroom and shower facilities are shared and are rarely en-suite.
If you prefer private accommodation, you may want to explore our tours in the Classic Travel Style.
Group Leader
"This G Adventures group trip is accompanied by one of our group leaders, otherwise known as a Chief Experience Officer (CEO). The CEO will be the group manager, leader and driver - this person is experienced in the routes travelled and will organize and lead the meal preparations and has experience in cooking a variety of local and international dishes for large groups.
As the group coordinator and manager, the aim of the CEO is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. While not being guides in the traditional sense, you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. They will also offer suggestions for things to do and to see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends.
We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting - we think it's the best of both worlds."
