Gold Coast, Australia

“Ana & the About Australia/New Zealand team totally exceeded all our expectations!! We had the best time and I highly recommend Ana & the “About Aus/NZ” team. I looked into a lot of different agencies prior to planning our honeymoon to Australia and New Zealand. Truth be told, I originally planned to complete all aspects of our trip myself. When finding the “About” team, I loved that they specialize in only a few different places. I also liked how they gave us the ability to truly customize all of our vacation to make it exactly what we wanted. We wanted to include beach sitting, bungy jumping, nature walks & hiking, snorkeling, and a lot of sight-seeing but wanted to do a lot of it on our own timetable-she did such a fantastic job with that, it was just the right amount of free time versus planned activity time.”

Jamie L.

Visit Uluru (Ayers Rock) on a 3 week trip to Australia

“Our trip was absolutely amazing! I usually like planning my own trips, but this time around we were in the midst of planning our wedding as well. In addition, we felt like we did not know enough about the South Pacific to know where wanted to go. Our trip was put together beautifully, and honestly we wouldn’t change a thing. Every single flight and shuttle from the airport was on time, every booking was set, they even told all the hotels that it was our honeymoon so we got several upgrades on the trip. We went to New Zealand, Australia, and 3 days in Fiji for 21 days and would recommend our exact itinerary to anyone who likes a mixture of exploration and relaxation. All around great experience.”

Sarah A.

South Australia self drives

“About Australia and About New Zealand planned our honeymoon amazingly! From listening to the activities we desired to do while there, to ensuring those happened, and arranging all our flights and accommodations, About Australia was great to work with. Our visas were secured and all our travel documentation was provided, which made traveling a breeze! And we had a lot of traveling to do in the two weeks while there (USA to New Zealand – Melbourne – Cairns – Brisbane back to USA). We only ended up missing one connecting flight (airlines fault) and we were immediately booked for the next flight out – no questions asked.”

The Great Barrier Reef, one of the world’s most iconic natural wonders, is a must-do experience on your Australia honeymoon. One of the best ways to experience the Great Barrier Reef is through snorkeling or scuba diving. Swim among thousands of colorful fish, graceful sea turtles, and intricate coral gardens while exploring the rich biodiversity of the reef. Numerous tour operators offer guided excursions that cater to all skill levels. If you prefer to stay dry while still witnessing the reef’s beauty, consider taking a glass-bottom boat tour.

Many tours offer the option to land on a secluded beach or even a sandbank, where you can enjoy a picnic in paradise.

Here, you can explore local markets, visit the Koala Gardens, and enjoy the serene atmosphere.

Bondi Beach, Sydney

Sydney

As one of Australia’s iconic cosmopolitan cities, Sydney is renowned for its stunning harbor, beautiful beaches, and rich history. A three-night stay is often recommended to fully appreciate the city’s charms, and choosing accommodation with a harbor view is well worth the investment. Join a local guide on a city tour, an excellent way to get acquainted with Sydney’s highlights. Stroll through the beautiful Botanical Gardens, where the tranquility of nature meets stunning views of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge. No trip to Sydney would be complete without a visit to the iconic Bondi Beach. Relax on the beach, enjoy a swim in the ocean, or take a walk along the scenic coastal paths that weave through the stunning cliffs and coves. If you seek an Australian adventure on your honeymoon, the Bridgeclimb Sydney offers an exhilarating way to experience the city from above. Or venture out to the Blue Mountains, where dramatic scenery and breathtaking bushwalking trails await.

Brisbane, one of Australia’s major cities, boasts a unique charm that makes it a perfect starting point for exploring the diverse attractions of Queensland.

Stroll through the lush Botanic Gardens, or take a walk along the South Bank Parklands, where you can enjoy panoramic views of the Brisbane River and the iconic city skyline. The vibrant arts and cultural scene is evident in the local galleries and theaters, including the Queensland Art Gallery and the Queensland Performing Arts Centre. A visit to the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary is a must for wildlife lovers. Here, you can meet and interact with koalas and kangaroos, providing an unforgettable experience.

The pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters make these islands ideal for relaxation and exploration alike.

Couple walking down the beach in Gold Coast

Gold Coast

Gold Coast stands out as a premier honeymoon destination, offering stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife, and plethora of activities. Gold Coast is synonymous with surfing, thanks to its iconic beaches like Surfer’s Paradise, Burleigh Heads, and Coolangatta. Take a break from the sun with a walk through the lush rainforests at Tamborine Mountain and experience the breathtaking views of the Gold Coast hinterland. Explore the Springbrook National Park, known for its picturesque waterfalls and lush rainforests, or embark on the Great Hinterland Walk for a day of hiking amidst stunning landscapes. For a truly unique experience, join a whale-watching tour during the migration season, where you can witness these majestic creatures up close as they play in the ocean. To up the romance, enjoy a romantic sunset kayaking tour around Broadbeach, where you can paddle together while taking in the stunning colors of the sky as the sun sets over the horizon.

Often hailed as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island is a must-visit. With its powdery white silica sand and vibrant turquoise waters, it’s the perfect spot for sunbathing, swimming, or simply soaking in the stunning scenery. The Whitsundays are also a gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, making it an ideal location for snorkeling and diving. Explore the vibrant underwater world filled with an array of marine life, including colorful coral, tropical fish, and even sea turtles. One of the best ways to experience the Whitsundays is by sailing through its azure waters. Charter a private yacht, join a sailing tour, or hop on a luxury cruise. No trip to the Whitsundays is complete without a visit to Hill Inlet Lookout. This iconic viewpoint offers spectacular panoramic vistas of Whitehaven Beach and the surrounding islands. The shifting sands and tides create ever-changing patterns in the water, providing a picturesque backdrop that’s perfect for breathtaking photographs. The Whitsundays are also perfect for island hopping, with each island offering its own unique charm.

Couple at Yarra Bridge, Melbourne

Melbourne

Melbourne, heralded as Australia’s cultural capital, is a vibrant city that offers a rich tapestry of experiences. Whether you’re a foodie, art enthusiast, or nature lover, this quirky metropolis has something to capture your heart. Explore the city highlights, including the Royal Botanic Gardens and the Eureka Skydeck 88. Make sure to visit Queen Victoria Market, where you can sample local produce, artisanal snacks, and international cuisines. Immerse yourself in Melbourne’s thriving cafe culture and arts scene by wandering through the laneways adorned with street art. Each corner reveals vibrant murals and hidden galleries, with pockets of restaurants and cafes perfect for a leisurely exploration. For nature lovers, a trip to the Mornington Peninsula for horse riding or wine tasting along the Yarra River is an idyllic way to spend a day. Another popular day trip is the Great Ocean Road. This iconic route showcases breathtaking coastal views, with the stunning 12 Apostles rock formations as the highlight of your trip. Alternatively, head to Phillip Island to witness the mesmerizing penguin parade, where you can watch little penguins waddle ashore at sunset.

More Answers to Your Questions

Is Australia a good honeymoon destination?

Absolutely. Australia offers a rare mix of romance and adventure in one trip — private beaches, world-class wine regions, the Great Barrier Reef, and cosmopolitan cities like Sydney and Melbourne. Whether you want to relax on a secluded island or add once-in-a-lifetime experiences like snorkeling the reef or watching the sunset over the Outback, Australia can be shaped around exactly the honeymoon you’re picturing.

How much does an Australia honeymoon cost?

Most of our Australia honeymoon packages start between $5,000 and $10,000 per person, depending on travel dates, length of stay, type of accommodations, activities planned, and how far in advance you book your flights and accommodations. Here’s a breakdown of potential costs to consider:

  • Round-trip Airfare: From major US cities like New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago, round-trip flights to Australia typically range from $1,000 to $2,000 per person, depending on the season, the airline, and how far in advance you book. Prices are generally lower during the off-peak seasons (late spring and autumn) and higher during peak travel times (summer and winter holidays). When you book your Australia honeymoon with us, our travel agents will find the best deals on flights to include in your package.
  • Hotels and Resorts: Accommodation prices can also vary greatly. We prioritize your budget and tastes when we choose hotels for your Australia honeymoon. So whether you prefer to keep it understated and comfortable or you want to go all out at luxurious resorts, we’ll customize your package exactly how you want it. On average, you can expect to spend:
    • Budget hotels: $100 to $200 per night
    • Mid-range hotels: $200 to $350 per night
    • Luxury resorts: $350 to $600+ per night
  • Food and Dining: Expect to spend about $80 to $200 per day on meals for two, depending on whether you choose casual dining or fine dining.
  • Activities and Excursions: Costs for tours and excursions can also add up, especially if you’re doing big ticket items like snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef, hot air balloon rides, scenic helicopter rides, and wine tasting tours.
  • Transportation: Depending on your itinerary, you may need to budget for rental cars or domestic flights to get around. The good news is, we include these as part of your Australia honeymoon package. If any tweaks need to be made – whether it’s switching domestic flights to rental cars or vice versa – we’ll make those adjustments to your package.
  • Total Estimated Cost: Considering all the above factors, an Australia honeymoon could reasonably range from $5,000 to $10,000+ for a week-long trip, depending on your travel style and preferences.

Ultimately, the cost largely depends on your travel preferences and choices. Planning ahead, being flexible with your travel dates, and taking advantage of our Australia honeymoon itineraries can help you save money while enjoying an unforgettable experience in Australia.

We also have the option to create a honeymoon registry, allowing your friends and family to contribute to your Australia honeymoon. Ask us about this option when contacting us!

What’s the best time of year for an Australia honeymoon?

It depends on where you’re headed and what you want out of the trip. Australia’s seasons are reversed from the Northern Hemisphere, so December to February is summer – warm, lively, and popular for beach time in the Whitsundays or Sydney. If you’d rather avoid the crowds and heat, spring (September – November) and autumn (March – May) offer milder weather and are especially lovely for wine regions like the Hunter and Yarra Valleys. The far north (Cairns, the Great Barrier Reef, Daintree) is best visited during the dry season, roughly May through October. Your Travel Advisor can help you match the season to the experiences you care most about.

Do we need a visa to travel to Australia?

Yes. Travelers from the USA need an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) visa to enter Australia, which is applied for online and usually approved quickly. Requirements vary by nationality, so we’ll walk you through exactly what you need for your passport and travel dates as part of your planning process.

Is tipping expected in Australia?

Not in the way it is in the U.S. Tipping isn’t a built-in part of Australian culture. Service staff are paid a standard wage, so tips are appreciated but never expected. Many travelers still leave a little extra for exceptional service on private tours or at nicer restaurants, but there’s no pressure to tip at every stop the way there is at home.

What currency does Australia use, and how should we handle money?

Australia uses the Australian Dollar (AUD). Cards are widely accepted almost everywhere, including smaller cafes and taxis, so you won’t need to carry much cash. We recommend letting your bank know you’ll be traveling, and bringing a card with low or no foreign transaction fees.

What should we pack for an Australia honeymoon?

These essentials apply almost universally: reef-safe sunscreen, a light rain layer (even in the dry season), comfortable walking shoes for city and nature days, swimwear for the reef or beach stops, and something a little dressier for a nice dinner or two. If your trip includes the Outback, layers matter: desert days can be warm with cool evenings. Once your itinerary is finalized, your Travel Advisor can help you with a packing list built around your specific stops.

Should we get travel insurance?

Yes, we strongly recommend it. Given the length and cost of an international honeymoon, travel insurance protects you against trip cancellations, medical emergencies, and unexpected delays. We can help point you toward coverage options as part of your planning.

How far in advance should we book our honeymoon?

Yes, we strongly recommend it. Given the length and cost of an international honeymoon, travel insurance protects you against trip cancellations, medical emergencies, and unexpected delays. We can help point you toward coverage options as part of your planning.

Can we add a honeymoon registry to our trip?

Yes. We offer a free honeymoon registry so friends and family can contribute directly to your Australia honeymoon, whether that’s a special excursion, an upgraded stay, or simply helping cover the cost of the trip itself.

What’s included in an About Australia honeymoon package?

Every package is fully customizable, but most include flights, hotel accommodations, and a curated selection of tours and transfers. Because we build each itinerary around you, exactly what’s included can flex based on your budget and priorities. Your Travel Advisor will lay out precisely what’s covered before you book, so there are no surprises.

Can we customize our itinerary, or do we have to pick a set package?

Every itinerary you see on this page is a starting point, not a fixed package. Your Travel Advisor will work with you to adjust destinations, add or remove nights, swap in specific experiences (private beaches, wine tours, reef excursions), and fit everything to your budget and travel dates.
