I've been all over the world throughout my life and Australia never fails to amaze me every time I immerse myself in it, genuinely among some of the most pristine places I've gotten the chance to visit.

@RyanShirley Ай бұрын

That’s awesome you’ve been so much! Where’s some of your favorite regions of Australia?

@Arrtorrr Ай бұрын

@@RyanShirley My favorite area of Australia EASILY goes to its tropical northern coast, perhaps some of the most underrated tropical beauty on the planet. The ecosystems and low population, paired with the scenery itself are just mindboggling. Imagine Southern Florida (Everglades/keys) but before humans built and populated all over and on it, that's northern Australia for you.

@orionspur Ай бұрын

Awesome. Yesrs ago some (crazy) rock climbers on Ball's Pyramid discovered a tiny colony of special crickets that had been extinct for 75 years on Lord Howe. With the rats now gone, the crickets are back. A rare success story where a nearly extinct species comes back from the brink.

@RyanShirley Ай бұрын

I thought it was so fascinating that those stick crickets were found on balls pyramid! They are such bizarre insects, I’m so happy they were brought back from extinction!

@fatheranthony4pope Ай бұрын

The Lord Howe Stick Insect, or "tree lobster" is amazing!

@idiota730 Ай бұрын

As someone who has done the drive from Sydney to Perth, there and back, I'd recommend it highly but take your time. We did 6 weeks drive there and 1 week drive back. The 6 weeks was following the coast the whole way, ducking inland for national parks such as Vic high country, Wilson's promontory, Grampians, Flinders ranges and Stirling range, highly recommend. The 1 week drive back was 6hrs driving every day and done to just get home, it's a very long way if you do it day after day.

A great follow-up to your recent New Zealand tour. Australia is one of my favorite places, though its distance even from California makes it a less frequent place to go than I would like. The wombats of Tasmania really are great. Speaking of cute Australian mammals, did you go to Rat Island and to see the quokkas? They only like there and are famously cute, almost a cartoon animal. That was really dedicated going out to Lord Howe Island, a place i have never heard of. As usual, it's always great to get a new video from your travels.

@RyanShirley Ай бұрын

Thanks so much John! Since I was so close in New Zealand I had to go to Australia as well. I didn’t see any Quokkas but I’ll have to visit Rat Island next time. And you’d really love Lord Howe, easily one of my favorite places I’ve ever been. So peaceful and absolutely beautiful 🇦🇺🏝️

I am so glad you came to our beautiful country. I am sure you found out how big it is! On your next trip I would recommend Kakadu (Northern Territory) and Broome (Western Australia) as two good options. I have never been to them but I know many people who have and I would love to go when I get the chance. Another great place that I have been to is Wilson's Promontory (Victoria). The 20km walk to Sealer's Cove and back is recommended. I have done it a few times. You can do it all in a day (about 6-7 hours) or you can camp at the cove and then walk back the next day. The city of Melbourne is a great place to visit too. It has been voted the world's most liveable city on many occasions.

Love your videos, so professional :-) Im australian and always watch your videos in Europe. I don't understand however how you can put a top 10 to a country just shy of the size of the US. You do realise our country is that big? I have lived in Queensland my whole life and would love to see the rest of OZ. Not sure you went there, but Mossman Gorge & Port Douglas north of Cairns before cape trib, its one of my favourite places. The tablelands in the north and the waterfalls south of cairns. Also off the Gold Coast is lamington/springbrook national park. The Sunshine Coast hinterland, Noosa and Frazer Island is one of our big tourist destinations as well. Then numerous Islands off the Great Barier Reef that aren't even near Cairns. This may not be on a top 10 list, but if you really want to see places in Queensland that are a little different and understand the culture and vastness. Id suggest Cooktown, Torres Strait Islands, remote communities, inland ouback country areas. Just coming from a good place as I worked in tourism for queensland for many years and grew up in Cairns, Brisbane 12 years, now on the Goldy. I'd suggest North Western Australia as well, massive country, much to see.

As a 33yo Australian unfamiliar with your channel, I clicked on this video expecting it to miss out on some of the best (in my opinion) places in the country. Not only were my top picks (such as Whitehaven Beach and Daintree Rainforest) in there, but I had never even heard of Ronny Creek or Cape Huay. Now I'm looking into Tasmania for my next family holiday. Well done for exploring the real Australia and not the cities! By the way, the drive from Sydney to Perth is immensely boring, unless you went right around the coast of Victoria and South Australia which has some great overnight stays, and I would not recommend it to anyone who can fly instead.

Ah that makes me so happy to hear! You’ll move those places in Tasmania especially cradle mountain! What part of Australia are you from?

Tasmanian here. I go to Cradle once or twice a year. Ronny Creek is the second last shuttle bus stop before Dove Lake which is in front of the Cradle. I visit Ronny Creek every time as wombats are guaranteed. Best to catch them around 8-10am or later in the afternoon. Cape Huay is on the Tasman Peninsula. Highly recommend overnighting near the Port Arthur settlement, doing the Pennicott Wilderness Cruise departing from Stewart's Bay, next door to Port Arthur, and exploring these waterways. The coastline there is amazing. This area is a whale spotting area in the right season, so a good idea to visit when they are migrating, between May and December. I think I did it in October and I saw whales.

Great places see there amazing view but sad could not be said for the history of indigenous that were hunted till extinction there

@@danielsonn3046 The current Tasmanian Aboriginal people would question your 'hunted till extinction' narrative. Their culture is alive and well, as are they.

@@carokat1111 all the aboriginals in Tasmania are all descendants from the original Tasmania Aboriginals there are no original Tasmania full bloods left there, if you see a fullblood there their family came from the mainland and yes I know the culture is still alive but alot of it is lost
