Building An Authoritative Travel Blog

Authoritative blogs seem all the rage at the moment but what exactly is an " Authoritative Travel Blog ?" Well my understanding of the matter is it is a blog that is not only very informative to the readers but that the information comes from authoritative type people in connection with what they are writing about.

Hopefully my articles below will give an insight on travel and travel related experiences from all over the world from many authoritative writers as they have been there and done that.

Articles will be and are published often and this means current travel experiences and up to date places to visit. If you have also visited these places or wish to comment then please do so remembering this blog is intended to family orientated visitors so please be respectful.

I have seen many fears raised through my article site and feel that any traveller today that, for one reason or another, decides against travel insurance then they are possibly being a little short sighted. We do not want our boats to sink but are happy to carry life rafts. travel insurance is a similar idea. We do not wish to ever claim on it but if things go wrong as they sometimes do it is a benifit to have the insurance.

Australian Luxury Cruises Rock

By Midje Ette

You might have heard about the luxurious and fascinating experiences you could have on an Australian cruise. However, you might not have a good idea of what a cruise really has to offer. Here are some of the activities you might experience during an Australian cruise.

If you've ever wanted to experience the amazing variety that Australia has to offer, but don't want to deal with adventure in your accommodations, an Australian cruise is a great choice. You'll get to immerse yourself in the wilderness while you enjoy surroundings similar to the most exclusive hotels in the world.

Take advantage of the sun deck, ship's lounge, al fresco bar, and forward observation lounge. You'll be able to see useful and interesting information on the ship's plasma screens, and communicate conveniently with the world outside via Internet cafe.

Enjoy the best wines that the McLaren Vale has to offer as well as a fantastic seafood lunch, full of local treasures. Then, return to the ship for a short journey to Kangaroo Island itself. Called one of the last unspoilt refuges on Earth, this island has a lot to offer.

Choose a cruise that offers multiple expedition boats, allowing you to do what you want, when you want to do it. Some boats, like the Kimberly True North, even sail with their own helicopter!

Australian cruise ships built for wilderness exploration are a little different than the average ship. Purpose built to be able to explore even the upper parts of shallow river systems, they'll take you further than an ordinary cruise, allowing you to experience true Australian wilderness merely by stepping out of your cabin.

Cruises are famous for their food, and most Australian lines are no exception. You'll enjoy amazing and exotic dishes you'd never encounter anywhere else, including fantastic local wines and seafood from several of the ports you'll visit.

Of course, shark diving won't appeal to everyone. If you'd rather do something a little quieter, consider fishing in a secluded Australian bay. Whether you're an expert or a beginner, you'll have a guide who can help you and can work with your skills. Pink snapper and King George whiting are delicious catches frequently found on an Australian cruise.

Enjoy fishing expeditions to catch the finest in Australian edible fish. From mangrove jack and coral trout to barramundi and monster golden snapper, you'll enjoy this great sporting opportunity. In cooler waters, enjoy catching pink snapper, emperors and whiting.

SCUBA diving is another popular sport you might engage in on an Australian cruise. However, you should take care to make sure it's included on the cruise you pick. Some cruises involve crocodiles as a viewing highlight, and they don't mix with divers!

You'll continue to travel through the beautiful and amazing islands of Australia, enjoying the sights, environment, and unique wildlife. Fishing opportunities and great dining options are everywhere. You'll even be able to join a chef to see how the blue manna crab is caught, cooked, and prepared.

After a long, fantastic cruise, you'll head to the final port, where a morning disembarkation takes you to light aircraft transfer back to your port of origin. You'll be amazed at everything available as part of an Australian cruise.
