I have for many years been photographing Australia's outback and Riverland.
Birds, Animals, Landscapes etc.
Also Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide,Canberra and Darwin.
Below are some suggestions for a photographic and/or just
relaxing holidays in Australia.I would take you on such tours but am not
licensed to do so. if you need guidance on these places please email
me.
1. Riverland South Australia and Broken Hill 1 week
The
South Australian Riverland is 3 hours from Adelaide by road and
consists of a number of country towns where Fruit, Wine, Vegetables,
Almonds etc are produced in large quantity.
The towns are all based on the River Murray, Australia's iconic river.
It is a gateway to the outback.
2.Broken Hill is a large inland outback town known as the Silver City.
It has its origins as a major mining town and is in rich in history and home to great Australian Artists.
The historic town of Silverton is nearby with it's ghostown appearance and quirky art galleries.
3. The Flinders Ranges South Australia 1 week
One
of Australia's premiere outback holiday destinations. Rugged mountains
and incredible landscape and wildlife and wildflowers.
4. Kangaroo Island South Australia 5 days
One
of Australia's best kept secrets. A popular destination for overseas
tourists. Kangaroos, wallabies,seals, birdlife and amazing coastal
scenery. Amazing wild flowers in season and a large part of South
Australia's beginnings as a settlement.
5. Barossa Valley or Mclaren Vale. 2 days or 1 day. Close to Adelaide and premiere wine growing and tourist areas.
Gourmet dining.

scenery and quaint country towns with many attractions including the
World's Largest Rocking Horse.Good country meals and bakerys.Hahndorf is

Take in Ayer's rock, The Olgas, King's Canyon,Coober Pedy, Alice Springs.Magnificent colour and desert landscapes and wildlife.
7. Darwin Northern Territory. Ideally you need 2 weeks in and around Darwin to get an appreciation of the "Top End".

is about 4 days drive from Adelaide.You can catch the luxury train the
Ghan from Adelaide or you can fly. Litchfield National Park,Adelaide
River Crocodile Tours, Bathurst Island,Darwin Harbour,Daly River,Cullen

is Crocodile Country.
