Howdy, Ags!

Experience a wealth of spectacular natural scenery and cultural diversity in the Lands Down Under by joining fellow Traveling Aggies on an exclusive 22-day small group journey to Australia and New Zealand.

Begin your touring in Cairns with an excursion to the Great Barrier Reef. Traveling on to Alice Springs, you’ll embark on an Aboriginal “dreamtime” tour and visit fabled Ayers Rock. Enjoy a three-night stay in cosmopolitan Sydney; tour English-accented Christchurch, New Zealand; and spend two nights in New Zealand’s remarkable Mt. Cook National Park. After these explorations, cruise stunning Milford Sound and discover New Zealand’s “adventure capital,” Queenstown. Experience Maori culture in geothermal Rotorua before your tour concludes in vibrant Auckland. For those who wish to spend more time in the “City of Sails,” an optional 3-day/2-night post-tour extension is available.

With room for only 24 guests on this exclusive Traveling Aggies departure, we expect our limited space will fill up quickly. Your deposit is fully refundable up until 95 days before departure. Book risk-free today!
