Ever wished holidays came with less stress and more experiencing? With an AAT Kings guided holiday in Australia, there’s more connection, more immersion and more time for you.

Woke up to ocean views, chased waterfalls, cooked under the stars… now that’s a perfect weekend. All you need is the right van – and a sense of adventure.

Join the fabulous Shelita Buffet for a tour of Broken Hill, where history, art and drag come together for a one-of-a-kind outback adventure.

Wine country on the rails. The Indian Pacific slows down for a day of world-class vineyards and laid-back charm in the Barossa Valley.

From the goldfields of Kalgoorlie to the silence of the Nullarbor and the tiny ghost town of Cook, this is the wild heart of Australia.

Step aboard the Indian Pacific for an epic 4352km adventure to see Australia like never before.

From the red heart of the outback to lush Top End landscapes, The Ghan is slow travel at its finest – with gourmet dining, epic sunsets and pure adventure along the way.

These outback pubs are not just places to grab a cold beer; they’re the heartbeat of remote communities, brimming with history, character and some seriously memorable characters.

We're in the ultimate holiday limbo, just like this sleepy kangaroo at East Coast Natureworld. The ‘should I nap or party?’ dilemma hits hard. How are you spending this week?
