Why Australia?
Australia is a destination that truly has it all - world-class cities, pristine beaches, ancient rainforests, the otherworldly Outback, and wildlife you won't find anywhere else on Earth. It's a country that rewards exploration, whether you're snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef or watching kangaroos hop across the landscape.
For Indian families, Australia is particularly appealing. English is spoken everywhere, the infrastructure is excellent, and there's a large Indian community. It's safe, clean, and incredibly family-friendly with activities for all ages.
