Glittering Modern Cities & Wilderness The city of Sydney on the east coast of Australia is as idyllic as it appears from its instantly recognisable cityscape. It boasts a rich and intriguing history, famous beaches and iconic landmarks, with a diverse and friendly population, all spread around an elaborate shoreline of yacht-filled inlets, bays and rivers. In the amazing remote wilderness in the Blue Mountains World Heritage area, pass beautiful panoramic escarpments, unique rock formations, deep canyons with ancient rainforest and wildlife. The Great Australian Outback Australia’s outback contains some of the few remaining expanses of genuinely untouched wilderness in the world, a remote haven that abounds with national parks and rugged beauty. A journey through the Northern Territory’s ‘Red Centre’ lets you explore the delights of Uluru. It is a place filled with stories, myths and legends, a remote wilderness that encourages the exploration of both the landscape and the soul.
