TRAVEL BRIEFS<\/p>\n

John Crook <\/p>\n

Upgrade to gold service<\/p>\n

Current promotion for the Indian Pacific rail experience offers an upgrade to their brilliant gold service. \u00a0It’s a simple procedure. Just a matter of booking the rail journey at the same time as your accommodation and touring package. \u00a0Conditions do apply, so read the fine print. \u00a0At face value it appears there is a saving of up to $640 person. \u00a0Grab a copy of Australia’s Great Train Holidays brochure to check out the various combinations. \u00a0 To obtain your free brochure telephone 1300 132 147 or visit www.gsr.com.au<\/a> <\/p>\n

Stay five nights pay for three<\/p>\n

This one would be hard to overlook. Staying \u00a0on the French Polynesian island of Moorea, it’s hard to imagine that there could be anyplace to match the five-star Intercontinental Resort and Spa Moorea. \u00a0 Prices start from $1,071 per person twin share and that price includes the five night stay with the two night freeby. \u00a0International irfares are additional. \u00a0 To access the free nights bookings need to be made prior to October 31 2009 and are available for travel from November 1 to December 30 2009. Get to the ‘phone and dial 1800 044 066. <\/p>\n

Equestrian three day event<\/p>\n

Set aside these dates, November 13 \u2013 15. \u00a0On this year’s equestrian calendar Rymill Park is the location for the Australian International Three Day Event. \u00a0To purchase tickets for this major SA event, visit www.venuetix.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n

There is quite a variety of ticketing options, so check out the best option for you. For those who do not know Adelaide, take note that the venue is within walking distance of the CBD, so accommodation anywhere in the city should be of interest. \u00a0There is anther good reason to consider this event, – that being the annual Credit Union Christmas Pageant which is scheduled over the same weekend. \u00a0For general enquiries telephone (08) 8383 6180. <\/p>\n

Go take a walk<\/p>\n

With almost 3000 kilometres of managed walking trails on hand, and 880 separate walks, Tassie just has to be the most walked state of the nation. Take your pick!<\/p>\n

Cradle Huts Walk, the Bay of Fires Walk, \u00a0the South Coast Track, the Freycinet Experience and the Maria Island Walk. \u00a0It’s a secret no longer, but before the hordes arrive, check out the walk destinations on the most beautiful island in the world and go for it. \u00a0Tasmania ! \u00a0 \u00a0The best advice I can pass on is to go visit www.greatwalkstasmania.com<\/a> and you are practically on your way. <\/p>\n

Cruise aboard heritage replicas<\/p>\n

Pandaw River Cruises operates remarkable vessels which are replicas of yester-year. Join like minded travellers aboard the river boats \u00a019th century style, on an\u2013eight day Mekong expedition cruise in Vietnam and Cambodia in January and February next year. \u00a0 \u00a0You get to travel in back-water village areas that can only be accessed by the shallow-draught Pandaws and local ‘country boats’. \u00a0As part of the package in January and February guests have two nights free staying at the five-star Sofitel Plaza in Ho Chi Minh City, normally valued at $248 per person. \u00a0For details contact (02) 8080 5622 or email Australia@pandaw.com<\/a> <\/p>\n
