Best travel time
If you are a family with primary-aged children, we would suggest trying to travel during the ‘shoulder’ seasons. Spring and autumn is a great time to travel to Australia. Why? It is less busy. You miss the heat of the summer and the cold of the winter. In spring, everything is blooming and the animals are born. In autumn, the colours are spectacular and the air is crisp.Would you like a holiday immersing yourselves in nature and wildlife? Beachside? Going island hopping? Or exploring the jewels of the outback? No matter what you are looking for, Australia has something for everyone. Due to the size of Australia, it also means there are many different types of climates. This also has an impact on when the best travel time is to suit you and your family.
The best time to travel depends on your wishes and desires. With our local knowledge, we can advise you at which times are best to visit which places. We would love to discuss with you further all the possibilities. Australia is a huge country with many diverse landscapes to discover. We would like to help you get the most of your holiday to Australia.
Flights
Flying to the other side of the world may seem impossible with kids. But, it doesn’t need to be. We work with the most leading airlines and offer comfortable connections and flight times. And, we reserve seats next to each other, so you are sitting together as a family.We would definitely recommend a stopover. This means you can rest in between the two flights. Stretch your legs, have a good night’s sleep and feel revived for the next flight. We can advise you on the best locations for a family. Your options can include Dubai, Thailand, Cook Islands, Singapore, Fiji and Hong Kong. All with their own unique charm.
Would you like to travel in Economy or Premium Economy? Or would you like that extra comfort in Business or First Class? We can advise you on the best option for you and your family. We have flown to Australia with our own kids, so we can advise you on the most pleasurable way possible to reach your dream destination.
