Suggested Itinerary:

New York – The Big Apple is the perfect place to begin your adventure. As you emerge from the subway, you’ll see towering skyscrapers and yellow taxis that seem straight out of a film. With your City Pass in hand, set off to explore the city’s essential sites: Top of the Rock or Ellis Island? The Guggenheim Museum or a Circle Line Cruise? The choice is yours. The Empire State Building and Natural History Museum are sure to please the whole family, as is the culinary scene in this magical city.

The American West & Los Angeles – In Phoenix, it’s time for an All-American road trip as you head off to explore one of the world’s natural wonders: The Grand Canyon. Hollowed out by water and time, this natural site will amaze even the most sceptical travellers. In Zion National Park, hike through the Virgin River in The Narrows; in Bryce, take in another incredible canyon. It’s then on to Las Vegas, a dazzling mirage in the middle of the desert before your final American stop in the City of Angels. LA is full of contrasts – Hollywood is nothing like Venice Beach, Santa Monica totally different to Downtown – and it's all yours to discover (with our help, of course).

Australia – Just like in California, relaxed attitudes and good vibes are flowing in Sydney, making it a natural next step in your journey. Sydney is so iconic that it’s often (but wrongly) thought to be the country’s capital. Marvel at its gigantic opera house and soak up the view of the Harbour Bridge overlooking one of the world’s most beautiful bays. Then head towards Uluru in the Red Centre, to a camp where wallabies scamper off into the low light. You’ll wake at dawn to see the rock glow in fifty shades of ochre in the morning light. From desert to ocean, Cairns is your next stop and the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. Beaches, lagoons and snorkelling will characterise your time here, including an escape to the tropical paradise of Fitzroy Island.

Bali – What better place to end your journey than the Island of the Gods? Your first stop here is a cosy bungalow in Jimbaran, the entrance to the sumptuous Bukit peninsula. Along crescents of sand bordered by emerald water, you’ll get a sense of what this fascinating island is all about. Impressive stone statues signify the island’s Hindu culture, and frangipani flowers litter the ground. It’s then on to the town of Ubud, which is full of tradition and friendly locals who skilfully navigate their way around on scooters. For your final days in paradise, you’ll stay in a wonderful hotel overlooking the rice fields, a view that’s fitting of your incredible adventure.
