Families with Teenagers
Teenagers and young adults have a growing say in where their family goes on holiday. These tech-savvy and curious consumers often seek immersive and authentic bucket-list travel experiences that enrich them in the long term, prioritise sustainable and eco-friendly travel practices that reduce their carbon footprint, and look for exclusive and customisable experiences that are exquisitely shareable on their social media networks.
Authenticity, exclusivity, sustainability, personalisation, and a pinch of shareability are common traits of the Australian itineraries we make. Depending on your needs, we can create a journey featuring hands-on and one-of-a-kind experiences that will impress even the most discerning and youthful travellers.
Our Luxury Experiences

These stunning properties are perfect for everyone to relax in their own space and time, and offer enriching activities that fit the stunning environments they’re found within – whether you’re enjoying the pristine Great Barrier Reef at The House at Lizard Island, or relaxing amongst serene coastal bush sprawl at One Kangaroo Island.
- Unplug and fully immerse yourself into thrilling, memorable adventure experiences – so long as the photos can be shared afterwards! Venture to the Eyre Peninsula to swim alongside sea lions and cage-dive alongside Great White Sharks with Australian Coastal Safaris, or go off-grid and rest in sustainable conservation lodges and extraordinary wildlife destinations such as Arkaba Conservancy in the Flinders Ranges and Finniss River Lodge along the Top End’s coastal floodplain.
