Itinerary
This morning, in Sydney, we board our private jet for our first flight, to the raw and unspoiled outpost of Flinders Island, a place that is impossible to reach by regular commercial airline. Bass Strait has always deterred the casual sailor with its rough and unpredi...
Hobart is a charming town, but we reserve its urban delights for tomorrow. Today, we leave town to explore Bruny Island. Once just a quiet, forgotten corner of Tasmania, Bruny has become the epicentre of the state's gourmet renaissance and is a wonderland of plant and wildlife. Discover the island with these Your World experiences.
Historic Salamanca Place beckons this morning. The sandstone buildings, built in the 1840s, are warehouses that have been converted into restaurants, galleries and craft shops. Saturday is also market day, and we enjoy our stroll through the stalls offering fine Tasma...
We leave Hobart for a scenic drive to the mirror-still waters of Lake St Clair. It is at the Lake St Clair Lodge, on the lake's southern shore, that we stop for lunch. Our next stop is The Wall in the Wilderness, a singular sculpture that pays tribute to the history, ...

We spend the morning strolling the quaint streets of Mount Gambier, stopping in at its antique shops and galleries, before boarding our private jet for the flight to Kangaroo Island. Upon arrival, we check in to the sumptuous Southern Ocean Lodge for two nights. Its d...
This morning, we head to Flinders Chase National Park. Many of the island's natural charms are to be found here. The foremost among them must be the Remarkable Rocks - enormous boulders that have been shaped by wind, rain and surf into intriguing architectural forms. ...
Mildura is said to be where the Mediterranean meets the outback. Citrus groves and vineyards stretch as far as the eye can see. Endless sunshine and sandy beaches along the Murray demand that life be lived at a slower pace. Our private jet flies us here in the morning...
This may be the last day of our journey, but we certainly make the most of it. We greet the morning with a cruise on a privately chartered classic Murray paddlesteamer, languidly making our way past the scenic river red gums that line each bank. Our destination is the...
