🇦🇺 First-Time Australia: 6-Day Itinerary (Semi-Leisurely Edition)

After this trip, I can confidently say: Australia is 100% worth it! The post-trip withdrawal is real—I’m still daydreaming about it daily. Sharing my perfectly balanced 6-day plan (great for fellow "P-types" who love flexibility!): 🌊 Day 1: Great Barrier Reef Reef Magic Cruise: Snorkeling + 10-min helicopter ride 🚁 (coral reefs = mind-blowing!). Dinner: Dundee’s seafood tower + Aussie sample plate (crocodile & kangaroo meat—yes, really!). Hotel: Hilton Cairns 🌟🌟🌟 Night flight to Sydney ✈️ 🏙️ Days 3-4: Sydney (The Ultimate City Walk!) Day 3: Observatory Hill Park → Opera House → Royal Botanic Garden → Darling Harbour (lights at night!). Day 4: QVB → Hyde Park → St Mary’s Cathedral → Sydney University (Harry Potter vibes!). Hotel: The Fullerton Hotel Sydney 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Night flight to Geelong (gateway to the Great Ocean Road). 🌊 Days 5-6: Great Ocean Road Road Trip Private 6-seater tour: Wild kangaroos 🦘 + koalas 🐨 in the rainforest! Coastal cliffs, rainforests, and the Twelve Apostles (yes, the one from English textbooks!). Hotels: Geelong: Holiday Inn 🌟🌟🌟 Apollo Bay: Best Western 🌟🌟🌟🌟 💡 Why This Itinerary? ✅ Mix of adventure + chill (Palm Cove naps included!). ✅ Sydney’s walkability = effortless exploring. ✅ Great Ocean Road = Australia’s most epic drive. #AustraliaTravel #GreatBarrierReef #Sydney #GreatOceanRoad
