Fraser Island

Once a major immigrant and industrial port encompassing much of the area now marketed by tourism authorities as the Fraser Coast, the island is a growing hub for eco tourism. The unique sand dunes system, the rainforests on sand and the beautiful fresh water Lakes all add charm to the allure of the Fraser Island making it a hot holiday destination for people all over the world. If you also wish to visit this wondrous place, join us on Travel to Fraser Island.

Uluru
Also known as the Ayers Rock, resting in the middle of the Australian continent lies the imposing monolithic sandstone structure of the Uluru, a major tourist attraction of the region. Standing at a height of more than thousand feet from the desert ground, the monument was named by Anangu, the Aboriginal people who live on the land around it and who are its traditional owners. To visit this enthralling structure, join us on Travel to Uluru. Uluru is a dramatic symbol of Australia's ancient Aboriginal heritage and its unique landscape.

Kata Tjuta

The Kata Tjuta National Park was declared a World Heritage Site for both its cult ural and natural values. The predominantly sandy landscape is dominated by spinifex and low shrubs on sand dunes and sand plains dotted with large desert oaks. Sizeable areas of mulga woodland and other low shrubs also occur on dunes and swales. The alluvial flow areas at the very base of the major rock formations support large bloodwoods, acacias and native grasses. Water holes and soaks provide restricted habitats for a number of rare and unique plant species. Larger stands of mulga and other acacias dominate the harder, wide, sand plain surrounding Uluru and Kata Tjuta.

Purnululu National Park

Located in the East Kimberly region of Western Australia over an area of 239,723 hectares, the Purnululu National Park is an imposing and alluring attraction of the region. The Bungle Bungle Range, in Purnululu National Park, is one of the most fascinating geological landmarks and for this reason the Purnululu National Park is also known as the Bungle Bungle National Park. With its huge expanse of striking banded beehive structures, sandstone cliffs and towers makes the Park a must visit with Travel to Purnululu National Park.
