Tour description
BOOK EARLY! THIS TOUR IS FOR A SMALL GROUP
Lord Howe Island is a timeless pristine paradise less than two hours flying from Sydney and is widely regarded as the most beautiful island in the Pacific. It is one of only four island groups to be inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage list for the significance of its natural beauty. The pace is relaxed but there are plenty of activities and adventures to choose from.
The island is dominated by the twin peaks of Mount Gower at 875 metres and Mount Lidgbird at 777 metres and contains some spectacular bushwalks for the adventurous. The less energetic however will not have to climb too far to enjoy some of the 160 species of flowering plants or 120 species of birds or the giant Banyan trees or famous Kentia palms.
The lagoon is a beautiful expanse of calm turquoise water enclosed by a six kilometre long coral reef on the western side of the island, making it a haven for snorkelers. Colourful tropical and sub tropical fish abound with turtles and other marine life just a few strokes from shore.
Highlights include:
• All corners of the island Bus Tour
• Two hour coral viewing experience with optional snorkel
• Little Island walk and lunch at the golf club
• North Bay turtle and nature tour with lunch
• Chase’n Thyme walk and talk to Clear Place
…and most importantly time to relax or swim on this beautiful island.
Accommodation is at Somerset Apartments

Thank you so much to Indigo for delivering my backpack, containing my computer, to me at home in Willoughby. I thoroughly enjoyed my two day trip to the Hunter Valley Gardens. Our driver, Peter was delightful, patient, knowledgeable and a most competent driver. The drivers that picked us up and delivered us to Hornsby in smaller vehicles were also kind and patient. I was quite distressed at having left such a valuable piece of equipment behind and am so grateful to Indigo for going out of her way to deliver it to me. You have wonderful staff and I am looking forward to my next excursion with you soon in 2026. Happiness, good health and all good wishes to you all . Sincerely, Gabrielle Dec – 2026
