What is a good Australian travel/tour company?


Travel Info
I'm planning on going on a trip to Australia for a week sometime in summer or fall of 2008, and am trying to find a good company to purchase a tour from. I'm single and in my early twenties, so I'm not really looking for a family-type vacation. I'd like something with some level of adventure to it. I like a lot of outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, and boating, as well as going to parties and bars. Does anyone know a travel company or website that offers some kind of tour? Or should I just buy a plane ticket and plan my own vacation?

Travel Tips
I live in Aussie so personally I haven't taken and 'tours' as a 'tourist'.
Google 'outback adventures' you'll get loads of responses then it's a matter of working out your starting point.
Personally if you are young and on your own I would rather plan my own trip. However if you are looking for adventure come to Cairns! North Queensland

They have good adventure holidays in small groups that might be of interest to you.

There is also Contiki that caters to 18-35 year olds.

If you need help I am a travel agent.

feel free to email me at travellerlcy@yahoo.com
I agree with the previous recommendation, try Contiki. (great for clubbing and parties).
Or look into intrepid travel.

Sorry but you won't be able to do much in week.Limit yourself to one State out of Victoria,NSW,Northern Territory or Queensland.The Northern Summer or Fall(Autumn here)is Winter and Spring here.Nobody likes "gate-crashers" to parties so you'd have to be invited.There is better local knowledge here by the Local Travel Agents.Look up AAT or Australian Pacific Tours on the net to see what they can offer before you leave.Good luck.Have a great stay.
Ps.My fav Travel Agents are HarveyWorld and Flight Centre(usually the cheapest).
