We have an incredible tour coming up to Australia and New Zealand with an optional extension to the Great Barrier Reef:
Australia and New Zealand
October 13-29, 2009 (October 13-31, 2009 with extension)
17 days, 16 nights (19 days, 18 nights with extension)
My advice is to take the extension, since the Great Barrier Reef is something you won’t want to miss!
According to Wikipedia,
The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef system composed of over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands stretching for over 1,600 mi over an area of approximately 133,000 sq mi. The Great Barrier Reef can be seen from outer space and is the world’s biggest single structure made by living organisms. This reef structure is composed of and built by billions of tiny organisms, known as coral polyps.
We have arranged for you to have an absolutely fantastic experience at this wonder of the natural world! On your day trip, you will board a high-speed catamaran for an exciting excursion onto the reef. From your base on Green Island, you’ll enjoy a choice of snorkeling in the crystal clear waters or a glass bottom boat ride over the reef.
I toured the Great Barrier Reef myself in 1997 and took the glass bottom boat ride. It truly is amazing! The fish and coral are right below you in the crystal-clear water–and we’re not talking a few fish or a few coral polyps, we’re talking an amazing abundance of them! As luck would have it, on my trip a big sea turtle like the one here in the photograph swam right beneath our boat!
I loved my trip to Australia, and I can say in confidence that a trip like this really does change and enrich your life, so why not give it a try? This tour is also a guaranteed departure that can never be canceled due to a lack of participation. So please call us today! We welcome reservations from Indianapolis, where we are based, and from any location in the United States and Canada.
