Australia travel

Australia is the sixth largest country in the world – more or less the same size as mainland USA. This vast land however also has the lowest population density in the world, with only two people per square kilometre.

To travel and tour in Australia is like travelling in no other country in the world. Your Australian vacation will be the most memorable of your life. Live an Australian adventure with an itinerary including Sydney and its opera house, The Hunter Valley with its Australian Wines, Queensland with its island resorts, the Gold Coast with its theme parks and fabulous beaches, the Sunshine Coast and Noosa with Steve Irwin’s wonderful Australia Zoo.

Australia is politically divided into six states and two territories, each one offering a different experience for the traveller. There is the drama of the remote ‘Outback’, the colourful spectacle of the Great Barrier Reef and its coral islands, the excitement of the cosmopolitan cities, the sun and surf at some of the best beaches in the world, and the tropical rainforests of Western Australia. The list is endless in this diverse land of adventure, which boasts 2,000 national parks and 14 World Heritage-listed areas, along with more than 7,000 beaches.

Dallas is a sophisticated, hospitable, and determined city. Dallas means big
business but play is equally important. Dining, shopping, music, the arts,
sports, and outdoor activities are as important a part of Dallas’ identity as
closing that big deal.

Dallas

Dallas lies on the eastern edge of the flat Texas plains with the famed
cattle town Fort Worth just to the west. Dallas is located in the Central standard time zone (CST). The areas between and around these 2 cities are known as the DFW Metroplex.

There are many things to see and do in the area. Dallas has the dubious honor of being the place where the 35th US President, John F. Kennedy was
assassinated. If you are interested in seeing the crime scene you can venture to a lovely area known as Dealey Plaza in the historic West End. Tourism Mecca awaits you. There is plenty to see and when you need a drink or something to eat there are plenty of restaurants from which to choose.
