Days 1-2 Paris
A walk on the Champs Elysees - where many a famous foot has strolled - to the imposing Arc de Triomphe is a Parisian experience not to be missed. Visit the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, Sacre Coeur and the Louvre - there's a bounty of sights to see in this beautiful city. Descend to the creepy catacombs or get hip and catch the metro to the chic fashion area of Les Halles to do some window shopping alongside stylish locals.
Days 3-4 Bruges
With its picturesque waterways and cobbled lanes, delicious waffles and dazzling array of beers, this 'Venice of the North' beckons. Consider a tour of the De Halve Maan Brewery to learn the story behind the famous beer, or head further afield to the battlefields of Waterloo. Sample delicious pralines at one of the many sublime chocolatiers, shop for Flemish lace, or just hang out in the city square and watch the world go by.
Days 5-6 Amsterdam
Hire a bike and take the time to explore this colourful city of canals, bridges and parks, soaking up the warm atmosphere of vibrant Amsterdam. There are plenty of magnificent museums, and a visit to the Anne Frank House can give you an insight into the life of this exceptional little girl and her war-torn world.
Days 7-9 Berlin
Take to the pretty pathways of the lush Tiergarten and drop into the zoo to see the giant pandas, or join a day-long walking tour, an excellent way to delve into Berlin's provocative past. This vivacious city is also home to some of the most happening nightlife scenes in Europe so tonight, hit one of the many hip nightclubs or bars to celebrate the end of your journey.

On 07 June the Australian Government issued an updated travel warning for East Timor strongly advising against travel to East Timor because of the extremely dangerous security situation. Australians in the country are advised to leave. The Travel Warning remains at Category 5 - Do Not Travel.
On Tuesday 07 June we have taken the decision to cancel the remainder of our East Timor trips scheduled to depart in 2006. All travellers will be notified and given the opportunity to transfer to another trip or obtain a full refund (land content only). We very much regret having to take this action and our thoughts and sympathies are with the people of East Timor during this troubled time.
We are confident of being able to resume our normal schedule of trips to East Timor in 2007 and hope that those travellers who have had to cancel their plans this year will travel with us to East Timor in 2007.

We had a wonderful time making new friends and experiencing the countries from grass route levels. Love Stan the didgereedoo man whose precence gave advice and confidence in foreign places. Although due to Debra's fall we had to cut trip short we will be BACK! A great way make new friends, eat great food and travel in a way that was different from expected.
