[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 370045, member: 1991"] Tours like that make good first trips to any new country. Chances are it covers a lot of what makes Australia famous. Because it's winter now, prices will be lower. But it was winter when we travelled to New Zealand (we went just before the ski season officially opened but most of the slopes were ope plus we saw a LOT of snow!) and still we saw a lot and had fun. If you are in touch with him and he has the chance, tell him to go for a dip in the hot springs in NZ, even if it means stripping off outdoors. I feel the cold badly, plus I get a lot of muscle pain (made worse by the cold) but after soaking in a hot spring, I was able to walk back to the changeroom with air temps close to freezing, and not feel cold for hours! Loved it! Aus & NZ are both beautiful but very different. But I'm hoping that a lot of the Aussie leg is way up north - north Q'land, NT or the red centre. All nice and warm... and places I've never been, incidentally (although I have dim memories of north Queensland from when I was a pre-schooler; not sure how far north the family got but I remember having to stop for cane trains).
