Top 10 Australia Tours Departing February 2024

February may be hot but your holiday will be chill

Summer temperatures in February can border on scorching, with the occasional heatwave sweeping the country — luckily the coastal cities on Australia's East Coast have incredible beaches to cool off at. Beach hop your way from Sydney to Cairns and chill out on a leisurely day cruise through the Whitsunday Islands, check snorkelling the Great Barrier Reef off the bucket list, or give surfing a go in the laid-back beach town of Byron Bay. If you find yourself on dry land this month, beat the heat by sampling chilled wines in the picturesque Hunter Valley region or catching a bit of shade under the heavy green canopies in the Daintree.

Where should I visit next; the Northern Territory or Western Australia?

Both states have an abundance of natural beauty including jaw-dropping national parks and endless sandy beaches so settling the debate of the Northern Territory vs Western Australia is a hard one. Both bursting with Aboriginal culture, vibrant and multicultural cities, and more wildlife than you'll be able to spot, each region is breathtaking in its own way.
