Around Australia

Australia is a wonderful land of contrasts and of great natural beauty. All courses at Lyceum include a significant component on learning about Australia, the environment, and our native animals.

You may also be planning to make the time to include travel to other amazing places in Australia. We can give you advice on where to go on your trip.

People visiting Australia know our great icons, Uluru, the Great Barrier Reef and the beaches but our staff have all travelled extensively in the land and can offer expert advice about wonderful destinations for travellers that are not in the tourist brochures.

For example we can advise you to take the time to enjoy our unique desert lands, and inland rivers. For those who like adventure there are white water adventures, paragliding and hot airballooning, surfing, fishing and diving, all close to the major cities and provincial centres.

Each city in this vast continent is special. From the laidback tropical playgrounds of Cairns and Darwin with its reefs and jungles to temperate and cosmopolitan Sydney and Perth with their European lifestyles, to Hobart with its fields of flowers and welcoming people, you will find and enjoy variety without end.

Australia's large and modern cities are complemented by the colourful and diverse experience of regional towns.

Take your journey from Hobart's stunning 18th Century architecture on the southern island of Tasmania to Alice Springs and the red majesty of central Australia's Uluru with its Aboriginal communities.

Your new language skills will open new vistas and opportunities.

Professional tours with expert guides will take you to remote and beautiful settlements and locations that travellers may not have heard about before.

Imagine waking in the morning in a beautiful campsite in the forest before a day of surfing, walking and sailing, and ending with a barbeque on the beach with music, friends and entertainment - all within a few hours of Melbourne! Other students, your teachers and your new Australian friends will be your companions on these new experiences.

Lyceum is your starting point for these great adventures...
