The icon, the legend. 🦘

Did you know there’s more than one type of kangaroo in Australia?

Most of us recognise the red kangaroo as the face of the Aussie outback, but they’ve got a few relatives you might not know about!

🦘 Red Kangaroos are the big stars of Australia’s arid regions. With their fiery coats and incredible jumping power, they rule the deserts and grasslands.

🌳 Eastern Grey Kangaroos are your classic forest dwellers, thriving along Australia’s lush eastern areas like Tassie! Spotting them grazing in the misty mornings is pure magic.

🌾 Western Grey Kangaroos prefer the open woodlands of southern and western regions. They’re a bit smaller but just as iconic, with a more muted coat.

🌴 And then there are Tree Kangaroos! I bet you didn’t see that coming. Technically, they are not part of the kangaroo family that we know and love, but they are fun marsupials with a sneaky name.

These rare creatures are experts at navigating the treetops in the dense rainforests of Queensland.

Want to see these incredible creatures in their natural habitats? Come say hello to them on one of our eco-certified wildlife adventures. It’s the kind of Aussie experience that’ll stick with you forever.

Meet the legends at Exmouth Dive & Whalesharks Ningaloo 🌊🐋

Based in Western Australia, they are a boutique operator and one of our excursion providers on one of the most pristine marine ecosystems on Earth, Ningaloo Reef.

They offer:
✅ Whaleshark encounters: Swimming alongside these gentle giants is nothing short of magical. They’re the biggest fish in the sea, yet surprisingly graceful, and the team ensures you do it ethically and sustainably.

✅ Diving & snorkelling: Explore coral gardens with vibrant fish, graceful manta rays, and maybe even a friendly turtle. The crew is made up of marine experts and passionate guides who know just where to find the best underwater “neighbourhoods.”

✅ Boutique experiences: With smaller groups, personal attention, and a dedicated focus on safety and comfort, you’ll feel more like an old mate than a tour customer. The vibe? Relaxed, eco-minded, and full of genuine Aussie hospitality.

Why we love them 🐠🤿
They’re not just about ticking off wildlife encounters. They’re about connection….to the ocean, to the reef, and to the local community. Their sustainability efforts, respect for marine life, and top-notch service set them apart.

So shoutout to this amazing provider, we’ll see you at Ningaloo

Ever been to a wine tasting and felt a little out of your depth? 🍷

With plenty of wine-tasting experiences across our tours, we thought we’d share some simple tips to help you sip like a pro!

1️⃣ Start with the Whites: Always begin with lighter wines before moving to the bold reds. It keeps your palate fresh.

2️⃣ Swirl and Sniff: Swirling releases the wine’s aromas. Take a moment to smell it, you might pick up hints of fruit, spice, or even chocolate!

3️⃣ Sip Slowly: Let the wine linger on your palate to discover its complexity. Is it fruity? Oaky? Spicy?

4️⃣ Take Notes: Jot down what you like (and what you don’t). It’s a great way to remember your favourites.

Want to put those tips to good use? Join us for a wine-tasting experience on tours like our 3-Day Margaret River Boutique Tour, or our 8-Day Sydney to Brisbane Boutique Tour.

Celebrating this season on one of Aussie’s famous beaches? 🇦🇺

Here’s how to keep safe on the sand and in the sea! 🌊

🚩 Swim between the red and yellow flags, they mark the safest spots.
📍 Pay attention to the lifeguards and beach signs.
🌊 Watch for rips, and if you find yourself being dragged out, swim parallel to the beach until you feel yourself on a sand bank!

Australia’s beaches are stunning. Enjoy them safely. 🏖️

Christmas in Australia is unlike anywhere else. Forget the snow…down under, it’s all about sunshine, beaches, and BBQs!

Here’s how we Aussies celebrate 🇦🇺

🌊 Beach cricket: Nothing says “family bonding” like a friendly (or fiercely competitive) game of beach cricket with the crew. Don’t forget the sunscreen!

🔥 BBQ feast: Instead of turkey and ham, Aussies love to fire up the BBQ on Boxing day with fresh prawns, snags (sausages), and maybe even a cheeky steak or two. It’s a feast that screams summer!

🍦 Pavlova for dessert: Topped with fresh summer fruits like mango, kiwi, and passionfruit, pavlova is the star of every Aussie Christmas table. Pro tip: don’t argue about whether it’s Australian or Kiwi, just enjoy it!

How do you celebrate Christmas? Let us know your favourite tradition below! 🎄

Ever heard of a Tasmanian summer? 🌞

It’s like stepping into a nature documentary, only better because you’re right there living it. Warm sunny days, cool evenings, and landscapes that’ll leave you speechless.

Here are three Tassie highlights you can’t miss:

1️⃣ Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary 🐾
Meet some of Australia’s most unique animals up close, including the famous Tasmanian Devil. These critters may look cute, but they’ve got some serious personality!

While you’re there, you can also learn about the sanctuary’s incredible efforts to protect and rehabilitate wildlife.

2️⃣ Franklin River and Nelson Falls 🌿
Step into the heart of Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park and prepare to be amazed. The Franklin River winds through dense rainforest, offering moments of pure serenity. Just a short walk away, Nelson Falls is a stunning cascade that feels like something out of a fantasy film.

3️⃣ Bay of Fires and beyond 🏖️
White sandy beaches, turquoise water, and fiery red-orange rocks that make the perfect backdrop for your picture (it’s not one of the most pictured places in Tassie for no reason!) The Bay of Fires is breathtaking, and so are nearby spots like Cataract Gorge, St Helens, and the charming coastal town of Bicheno.

These adventures (and so much more) are part of our eco-certified 10-day Ultimate Tasmania Tour. You’ll explore everything from hidden gems to iconic landmarks while supporting sustainable travel.

If you think Margaret River is just about wine, you’re in for a treat … literally. 🍫

This region is home to some of the most amazing chocolate in the country, and you’ll be able to enjoy visiting a chocolate factory to see (and taste) how some of the best is made.

And the best part? Chocolate is just the beginning!

🦘See mobs of Western Grey Kangaroos in their natural environment.

🌊 Explore the stunning coastal towns of Mandurah, Busselton and Bunbury.

🧑‍🎨 Meet local hardwood crafters and uncover the creativity that makes this region so special.

Our 3-Day Boutique Margaret River Tour weaves all of this together into one unforgettable mini-trip. Whether you’re a foodie, a nature lover, or someone who just loves good vibes, Margaret River is calling your name.

Did you know? 🌊 Sharks are NOT mammals 🦈

Even though they’re large and powerful (and some give birth to live young) sharks are classified as fish! Unlike mammals, sharks don't have warm blood and lack other key mammal characteristics. Instead, their skeletons are made of cartilage, just like your nose and ears!

Sharks have been around for millions of years, evolving as some of the earliest vertebrates on Earth! 🌍

So next time you spot a shark (hopefully from a safe distance 😉), remember, it's not just a predator, it's one of nature’s oldest fish. 🐟
