Wild, wide and wonderful: head off on an Australia and New Zealand adventure with AAT Kings.

It’s a familiar story. You want to do some travelling, get out there, explore and do something fun and adventurous. But let’s face it, organising everything yourself and deciding what to do every day and where to eat and where to stay, is exhausting. When you step aboard with AAT Kings, you’re signing up to make the most of your travel time. Think, the best vantage for a view money can’t buy, lunch in a special place no others can dine or stories you’ll remember forever because they’re told from the heart.

A century’s worth of exploration means AAT Kings offers unparalleled knowledge of Australia and New Zealand – its highlights, its secrets, and the people that bring them to life.

AAT Kings has released great deals on selected tours, save up to $600 per couple* if you book between now and 30 September 2022. 

On tour

Let your senses run wild in Australia’s Red Centre, with an 11-day Outback Safari from Uluru to Darwin. Marvel at Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, do a tour in Nitmiluk Gorge, hike in Kings Canyon, do a Yellow Water billabong cruise to spot crocs, watch the sunrise at Uluru, and see the stars at the Earth Sanctuary near Alice Springs. Aboriginal Songlines are strong on this tour, allowing you to see millennia-old rock art, meet Elders, and try bush tucker.

The Perfect Tasmania 13-day tour from Hobart will showcase many of Tasmania’s star-studded highlights, from the unbridled beauty of Cradle Mountain and Freycinet National Parks, a cruise along the pristine Gordon River on the wild West Coast, a guided tour of historic Port Arthur, a visit to Cataract Gorge, a cruise on spectacular Wineglass Bay, and a host of opportunities to taste Tasmania’s excellent food and wine from farm gates to wineries. The tour is enriched by the Be My Guest experience – lunch at the Mt Gnomon Farm in the town of Penguin.

In New Zealand, the 10-day Southern Spectacular tour from Christchurch will fill your heart and soul with majestic vistas of soaring mountain ranges and mirrored lakes. Explore Queenstown on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, visit the icy world of Franz Josef Glacier (Kā Roimata o Hine Hukatere) and consider taking an optional helicopter flight to land on the glacier. Be in awe of the mystical beauty of Milford Sound (Piopiotahi), and marvel at Punakaiki’s Pancake Rocks.

These are just a sample of the wonderful tours available, with many more to choose from. Whichever tour you select, memories will be made of eye-wateringly beautiful sights, local secrets, delicious meals, farm-gate tastes and, along the way, days of laughter with new friends sharing the experience.
