Australia's intoxicating mix of natural beauty, unique wildlife, cutting edge cuisine and luxe resorts makes it the perfect destination for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The landscape varies from endless sunbaked horizons to dense tropical rainforest to chilly southern beaches. Scattered along the coasts, its cities blend a European enthusiasm for art and food with a laid-back love of sport and the outdoors. The sweeping landscape of the Outback gives Australia - and its diverse population - much of its character. In cities, visitors will experience a blur of fashion boutiques and crowded restaurants. In the interior, they will hear the thump of rocks under their 4WD, only to be followed by a slow, silent swirl of Outback dust. Around the coast, visitors can take in the depths of a rainforest, then slowly realize they have an entire beach to themselves. Australia truly is a unique experience unlike any other on the planet.
