Agriculture
Australia is the world's sixth-largest country by total area. There are approximately 134,000 farm businesses in the country and each Australian farmer produces enough food to feed 600 people.
We visit a broad spectrum of farms including dairy, beef and sheep, some of which also have arable.
Time is made on each agricultural visit to talk with the farmers and their families, and sometimes we have lunch with our hosts, providing an even better opportunity to get an insight into the agriculture, and real farming life in Australia.
Weather
Australia will be slightly warmer than the UK during our summer. The unpolluted atmosphere produces sunlight stronger than in the UK. Dubai is warm and humid around 24-26°C

Sydney
Not many people from the UK ever get the opportunity to visit Sydney, and we have an excellent sightseeing tour organised for you, visiting among other famous landmarks, the fashionable Rocks area and Bondi Beach.
A visit to the city is not complete without a guided tour of the iconic Sydney Opera House with its shell-like roof. The Sydney Opera House was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List in 2007.
Extension
Our extended tour offers the option to join a cruise onto the Great Barrier Reef. What a fantastic opportunity for you to experience one of the seven natural wonders of the world.
See the gathering of brilliant vivid coral, of which there are up to 400 different types, over 1,500 types of tropical fish and many other species of marine life which live on or around the reef. There will be the opportunity to snorkel and see this amazing spectacle. (Assistance is given to non-swimmers so they too can join in this experience)

Thank you to all of the Bay Farm Tours team for all you did
to make this holiday of a lifetime such a memorable tour.
We feel we have experienced so much of beautiful New Zealand’s wonderful sights, scenery and culture and visited such interesting farms and met so many interesting people. It was very refreshing to spend 3 weeks with such a pleasant and lively group of like minded people.
The professionalism, expertise and organisation of the
Bay Farm Tours staff were greatly appreciated
