35. Australia | Kangaroos, koalas and crocodiles, the Great Barrier Reef, the best views of the Sydney Opera House, bridge climbs high above the harbor and other crazy & cool experiences

Join Drew and me as we talk about Australia. Australia is an ideal destination as it combines the best of active and adventurous travel, with incredible restaurants, wineries, people, and accommodations. We talk about experiences you can have near the Great Barrier Reef, the Outback, Tasmania, and other islands.   We also touch on animal encounters - where to swim with whale sharks or great whites and the best places to see kangaroos and crocodiles. There are so many opportunities to connect with locals - whether they are a beekeeper, owner of a prestigious pearl company, notable winemaker, or true Aussie cowboy. And of course, we’ll talk about the best luxury hotels like One&Only Wolgan Valley, Longitude 131, and an update on the rebuilding of Southern Ocean Lodge.   Visit truvaytravel.com/35 for a video of today’s show and additional resources.
