Australia holidays — Premium Choice Holidays

Australia rewards the UAE’s long school holidays like nowhere else: one flight, no jet-lag-inducing connections, and a country that packs the Great Barrier Reef, ancient rainforest, wine valleys and the world’s most photogenic harbour city into a single (very large) island. Expat family links make it a natural VFR-plus-holiday destination too.

First trips usually run Sydney → Queensland: harbour icons, then reef and rainforest from Cairns or the Whitsundays. Melbourne adds laneway culture and the Great Ocean Road; the west offers quokkas, Ningaloo and sunsets over the Indian Ocean pointing straight back at Dubai.
