Tour description


Tour Dates: 15th August – 23 August, 2026

Discover one of the South Pacific’s most enchanting—and still wonderfully unspoilt—destinations on this idyllic holiday to Samoa. Often described as “the happy heart of Polynesia,” Samoa has preserved its traditional way of life, known as fa’a Samoa, creating a travel experience that feels genuine, warm and deeply connected to community. With its emerald mountains, turquoise lagoons, friendly villages and rich cultural traditions, the islands offer a gentle balance of natural beauty and heartfelt hospitality. From vibrant markets and historic landmarks to peaceful beaches and crystal-clear marine reserves, each day brings a new moment to savour.

Your home for eight nights is the stunning Taumeasina Island Resort, beautifully positioned just minutes from Apia with sweeping ocean and mountain views from every corner of the island. With deluxe ocean-view rooms, an inviting lagoon, and a range of activities—from cultural shows and cooking demonstrations to kayaking, snorkelling and simple poolside relaxation—the resort offers comfort, variety and the perfect sense of escape. A beautifully paced itinerary includes island tours, cultural experiences, marine encounters and time to unwind, capped off by a memorable Fia Fia dinner celebrating dance, storytelling and Samoan tradition. With generous inclusions and plenty of time to enjoy paradise at your own pace, this is a journey that blends discovery, culture and pure tropical relaxation.

Testimonials

Hi Kerry Great trip as usual in the Alps. Hans was able to secure 2nd spot on the bus line and we were away very quickly leaving lines of buses behind us. The motel was excellent and the food service the quality A1. The chap in charge of the Bar and foor service, lan, was most attentive and with the help of Hans did a wonderful job of keeping everyone happy. The escorted Tour of Albury by Allan was one of the best I have encountered. The Hibernian Hotel was ‘spot on’, the hotel was spacious and the food perfect. The Red Stag Deer Farm was without doubt one of the highlights of the trip. The complex looks over the valley with sweeping views. The owners gave a very informative and entertaining talk and we really could have stayed longer. I believe it would be an ideal venue for a bit of variety to say have morning tea at Bright and then go to the Red Stag for Iunch and a talk by them. They did well out of the bus with people buying lots of their products. Most of the people on the bus have done the same Bright trip previously in one form or another and the inclusion of this I feel would draw other ‘past’ travellers to do the same trip again. I know I can speak for everyone, it was a top trip.

Dear John Thank you and your team for arranging our Melbourne cup and King Island holiday. I enjoyed everything we did. Top accommodation and delicious meals. Your commentary was excellent. As was the way you looked after us all. King Island was as I anticipated plus the bonus of Michael Hill who made the day very interesting with his great stories and good humour. The meals on King Island were just super. Kerry did a magnificent job as the nicest “mother hen”. She capably looked after her “chickens”, especially this old “rooster”. Kerry made the delay at the Melbourne airport bearable by constantly providing updates and free vouchers. A special thank you to her. I must also mentioned the delightful Debbie. She is an excellent ambassador for your company. A very competent driver. Very pleasant and professional on the phone and in person. From the above, I trust you will appreciate I had a very very good trip. I look forward to again travelling with On Course (of course!) Cheers. Peter.
