About Me

Discover the magic of Australia: Breathtaking coastlines, vibrant cities, and untouched wilderness come together for the travel experience of a lifetime. With six personal trips exploring this incredible continent, I’ve uncovered hidden gems and must-see highlights that turn ordinary vacations into extraordinary adventures.

Why Australia?

  • Tasmania’s Wild Beauty: Spend 10 unforgettable days exploring Tasmania’s pristine landscapes. Visit the acclaimed Tasmanian Zoo and relax on Wineglass Bay, ranked among the world’s top 10 beaches for its crystal-clear waters and stunning views.
  • Iconic Cities & Culture: From the cultural richness of Melbourne and Adelaide to bustling Sydney with its historic charm and lively city life, Australia offers world-class dining, arts, and architecture.
  • Great Barrier Reef & Whitsundays: Dive into the world’s largest coral reef system or cruise the Whitsundays. Imagine unwinding on a golf cart as the sun sets over this southern Great Barrier Reef paradise.
  • Wildlife & Hiking: Encounter kangaroos, koalas, and more on Kangaroo Island. Traverse hiking trails at Cradle Mountain and explore renowned wine regions for a perfect blend of outdoor adventure and indulgence.
  • Scenery That Stuns: With countless National Geographic films shot here, Australia’s landscapes do not disappoint. From its rugged mountains to beautiful beaches it's truly spectacular.

A Taste of New Zealand: Add on an epic New Zealand escape with its incredible scenery, thrilling jet boat rides in Christchurch, biking adventures, and world-class hiking to explore breathtaking trails. It’s the perfect compliment to your Australian journey.

I would be happy provide personalized recommendations, and expert planning? Let’s craft your dream Australia adventure today and top it off with an extension to New Zealand for even more epic experiences.

Twenty years of great trips
Reviewed By Kiwi NZD - New Richmond WI | Traveled to Christchurch | New Zealand | Australia & New Zealand
I cannot recommend Travelleaders enough especially having had the pleasure of working with Marilyn Benson. She is my travel specialist and I could not be happier with the exceptional service she has given me over the past twenty years. Marilyn is extremely knowledgeable, detail oriented and listens carefully to what you are looking for in a vacation. I am originally from New Zealand and have made 12 trips back there to visit family, friends and do some sightseeing. I have also travelled to England, Scotland, Wales, South Africa, Hawaii and several destinations in the 48 States. Everything has always been perfectly arranged resulting in completely stress free vacations. 5 stars all the way!!

Marilyn has always been great to works with. We have been working with her for 5-6 years now planning a couple trips a year. She helps us narrow down destinations with her experience and ensures we get the most out of our vacations.

Marilyn is the best!!!!
Reviewed By TinaS - Osceola wi | Traveled to Mexico
Marilyn has been taking care of our travels for decades and she knows what we like and what we don’t so she knows exactly what to book for us and what not to. She is extremely knowledgeable and patient with all of my questions and concerns which I truly appreciate. We couldn’t travel without her to help us out.
