Travel Review: Luxury Family Trip to Australia, Sydney, Brisbane, Tarongo Zoo Overnight Stay, Great Barrier Reef Snorkeling

We had a spectacular trip to Australia in August, 2017 (family of 4, kids 9-11).  Destinations were Sydney (with side trip to the Blue Mountains), Uluru/Ayers Rock, Cairns/Port Douglas and Brisbane.  The travel agent was easy to work with and very flexible to our needs.  Transportation was prompt and efficient.  The travel agent was helpful in changing the times of some of our taxis as well.  Great mix of scheduled tours and free time.  Hotels were great and large!  We had read some questionable reviews online about one of the hotels but, after speaking with the travel agent, we stuck with it and it was fantastic!  We shouldn't have worried--the agents know what they are talking about.  The tours arranged were excellent.  Wish we could have stayed longer!
