 Marathon Tours is pleased to offer special packages for our second trip the 2008 Gold Coast Marathon, Half-Marathon, 10K and 7.5K on July 6. There is an event for participation by everyone. The Gold Coast Marathon is considered by the locals as the #1 marathon in Australia. It is a good one for anyone looking to join the 7 Continents Club. With so many marathoners and half-marathoners now planning to join the 7 Continents Club, this will account for Oceania. We also visited Australia with hundreds of visitors after the Millennium Marathon on January 1, 2000. Thus, we know the destination quite well and can assist you with any extensions for individual travel per your special request. As a vacation destination, Australia offers such a fascinating array of cultures, history and vacation wonders. We offer a basic 8 night trip to Sydney, the Gold Coast, and Port Douglas, which is a one-hour drive north of Cairns in the northern stretches of the Great Barrier Reef. Port Douglas is a resort town with beautiful beaches and all water sports. The nearby rain forests offer an unique opportunity to study the indigenous people and their ancient culture. Each stop will include lots of sight-seeing and more opportunities to explore on your own. Plus in Sydney we offer an optional Climb on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. BridgeClimb is the ultimate experience of Sydney, a guided Climb to the top of the world famous Sydney Harbour Bridge, 439 feet above Sydney Harbour |
