Just returned to the US after my 8th trip Down Under. Added the Ghan and Uluru to my list of accomplishments. I've done the Indian Pacific, Great Ocean Road, Fraser Island, snorkeled the Reef, done wine touring, visited all 8 states, have seen wild crocs (the freshwater kind) and have been to Phillip Island to see the penguins. Didn't drive the course there but have driven Bathhurst. That leaves me with another 11 items on your list. Oh gee. I guess I'll have to do another visit. How awful - NOT!!!!
You might want to add Kangaroo Island to your bucket list. Awesome place!

Bucket list for the wife and I is to see the quokkas on Rottnest Island

[roslynjonsson]

Swimming with the Whale Sharks in Exmouth WA, right beside Ningaloo reef ? Visiting Karajini national park, or Geke gorge, The Horizontal falls of the Kimberley, The Bungle Bungles, 4WD down the Canning Stock route. Esperance WA has 2 pink lakes, a Stone Henge identical replica, the only producers of fish skin leather in the world, go on a off shore deep sea fishing charter, get on MacKenzies's cruise boat over to Woody Island - which is only 1 of 104 islands in the Recherche Archipelago - then head north to Kalgoorlie and go gold prospecting. Oh, and you missed Coober Pedy on your way over the nulibor plain, to go opal mining and stay in an under ground house....and the list goes Maz, it looks like you're gonna need a bigger boat mate 🤣🤣🤣

[lorna]

Hey guys, first off, glad you're feeling better Maz and came through your ordeal and surgery ok! The dolphins bringing gifts, that is soooo precious, those precious babes! Fraser Island is awesome, I loved it there! Yes, the barrier reef is very delicate and amazing! I went to Lady Musgrave Island and before everyone could get off the boat we all had to put on special shoes before we were allowed walk on the Island - if I remember correctly, the island is all reef. Very cool experience! Also enjoyed the Tilt train - do they still have it? The picture of that pink lake was stunning!! What makes it pink? Another awesome video, keep 'em coming.

Helicopter ride over Katherine Gorge, Northern Territory and landing on the top is epic

[judileeming]

I am too old now, but if I was 20 years younger I would love to follow the Silo Trail throughout the States and Territories while caravanning. The beautiful paintings of grain silos, water tanks etc looks brilliant.

I have been to Tasmania and driven most of it and the standout “tourist” spot for me was “The Wall in the Wilderness”. This is a fantastic art project and I may not describe it correctly, but there are multiple, long, back to back walls of carved wooden panels portraying the history of the forestry industry. Each panel at the time was in various stages of carving (for example, an element such as a man’s arm and hand complete with veins might be finished but the trousers were still being carved) so it was very interesting to see the wood carving process and the artistic talent of the carver.

My family and I took a bus tour of The Great Ocean Road last May and it was amazing!! Such beauty along the coastline, and surprisingly, a lush rain forest nearby. Someday, I’d like to try the train trip you talked about. Australia is a wonderful country. From Connecticut, USA.

I've been fortunate enough to have done everything on your bucket list with the exception of visiting palm Beach and bungee jumping . Another must from my own bucket list was to go ballooning up where you live, we did it about 5 years ago and it was spectacular, another achieved bucket adventure was a sunset camel ride on Cable Beach when went to Broome . I'd be all up for visiting all the vineyards in Australia but I've had to settle for the ones in my home area The Hunter Valley . The only thing that I'm sorry that I haven't done on my bucket list was to take a ride through the .horizontal water fall in western Australia , and now that I'm unable to travel due to my health I won't be able to but I'm not complaining I've been lucky enough to have seen and experienced far more than most people . Glad your all better , now you can go skydiving, just make sure you get a shute with a money back return policy in case it doesn't open .

… and, as you drive along the Great Ocean Road toward Apollo Bay, in Victoria, why not stop and organise to be a passenger on a dual-ride hang glider, running toward, and then gliding off the edge of the cliff, and flying out over the thermals and ocean wind hitting the cliffs, gliding over the ocean before landing on the beach.

Trust me… an experience not to be missed. Time to experience varies on thermals… I went up with a work colleague who owned a glider… and we were up for more than 30 minutes before he landed it. Spectacular!

One of the wineries here in Queensland, Sirromet around 50km south of Brisbane in the Redland area hosts a lot of great acts from time to time Sting is playing there in February 2023 and Robbie Williams is doing two shows in November 2023 (both sold out), great weekend get away.

[grahamejohn]

Your idea of camping is my idea too Maz Poor Ben his snapping joke fell flat on its face. Never mind mate I get the same reaction all the time to my attempted humour.

[chriselliot]

Just done a helicopter ride over the Bungle Bungles...fantastic.

[MON-udsw]

If going on the Ghan between Alice springs and Adelaide be sure to organise a tour where you get off the train in the middle of the night in the middle of the desert and visit the opal mining town of Cooper Pedy. A really wondrous experience.

[tiaelina]

I would love to go to Kakadu national park, also up past Townsville there is a rainforest resort that is on my bucket list.

[gillianfahey]

Great to see you back again! A safe way to see crocs in the wild is to do a river cruise in Kakadu .. in fact just visiting Kakadu is an amazing experience ..and yes I would add Broome to the list

[grandmothergoose]

You could combine the caravanning and outback visit and add in the bonus of attending a huge classic Aussie music festival by going to either the Big Red Bash or Mundi Mundi Bash, both are held annually. Mundi Mundi is more accessible than The Big Red if accessibility is a problem.

One of my bucket lists is to ride the Indian Pacific from Sydney to Perth. I've ridden on that train dozens of times in my life but never did the entire journey across the whole country.

[miniveedub]

Some more for your list. Go to Tasmania to see the Aurora Australis, the southern lights. Go to Coober Pedy in SA and stay in the underground hotel. Visit the Bunda Cliffs along the Great Australian Bight, 60+ km of cliffs that are a sheer drop from the edge of the treeless Nullarbor Plain straight down to the ocean below. You can also see migrating whales from the cliff tops. The Superpit in Kalgoorlie is worth a visit, the sheer size of the hole is mind boggling. Visit corner country on New Years Eve, the corner where NSW, QLD and SA meet. Each state is in a different time zone so you can welcome the New Year in 3 times.

I actually went to Palm Beach when I was 12 for a school excursion. We got to see the filming of Home and Away. We saw Ray Meagher and Melissa George stepped onto our school bus to talk with our class. We were offered to play extras at the diner but we had to refuse due to schedule 😪
I also want to do the Sydney Harbour Bridge climb but my husband is afraid of heights too.

[stephanieyee]

Ben, climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge is not steep, scary or difficult. You are hooked to the railing all tge time. The scariest part for me was walking on the catwalk out to the ladder to start the climb. Once you've climbed a couple of ladders and ard on the arch it's easy. You're too busy looking at the view to worry about anything and it's a far easier climb than you'd expect.
Bungy jumping ✅️
Skydiving ✅️
Fraser Island ✅️
Maz, Go for it!
I want to go to Uluru and hope thst will happen in the next couple of years.
Thanks for giving us your Bucket List.
