Having traveled around Australia for 3 months, we feel comfortable designing our own ActiveTravels Dream Day Itineraries<\/a> to Australia. Depending on time and budget, we can send you to Sydney, Melbourne, Cairns\/Port Douglas, and add in some special treats like Ayer\u2019s Rock, biking or hiking in Tasmania, or scuba diving off a Great Barrier Reef island, like Heron<\/a>.<\/p>\n

New Zealand, however, was meant for driving at a slow pace. That is, if you can handle driving on the left-hand side of the road. We\u2019ve enjoyed working with a local outfitter, NZSidekick<\/a>, that will rent you a car and then design an itinerary with suggested activities and stops at small inns they personally inspect and recommend. Pricing is affordable and it\u2019s a fantastic way to see the country\u2019s topography, from fjords to glaciers to massive lakes and long stretches of secluded coastline. Activities include cruising the majestic Milford Sound, dinner at a Marlborough sauvignon blanc vineyard, and strolling along a beach dotted with hundreds of massive elephant seals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
