The horizon ahead; a single road that could lead anywhere in the world
Cooee Tours · Brisbane, Since 1974

Exploring Australia, New Zealand & Beyond

Australia. Aotearoa New Zealand. The world.

One Brisbane-based specialist team creating escorted group journeys and bespoke holidays for travellers who want depth, connection, and discovery — not just another coach tour.

Where will Cooee take you next?

'Cooee' is a Dharug word from the Eora Nation of Sydney, meaning 'come here.' A call carried across Country long before us.The story of our name
The Cooee Promise

One specialist, one plan

The Brisbane specialist who quotes your trip designs it, books it, and stays your contact through it.

Groups of every size

Solo travellers, couples, families and full-coach charters are all home here. Some tours carry group-size restrictions to protect the experience — intimate cellar doors and lodgings simply can’t host a crowd, and we never force them to.

Tailored is standard

Start with one of our itineraries or with a blank page. Bespoke design is the default, not a luxury upcharge.

Australia · The country we know best

From Brisbane, with depth.

We've been showing travellers Australia for more than fifty years from our home in Brisbane. The Reef and Red Centre, yes — but also Tasmania's east coast, the Kimberley by 4WD, Margaret River's cellar doors, the Whitsundays under sail. Country woven through with First Nations voice, kept small enough to meet the right people. Start where we do: our Queensland travel guide covers the home state in the same depth — Brisbane, the islands, the reef and the wine country between.

Aotearoa New Zealand · Land of the long white cloud

Two islands. One unforgettable arc.

Where alpine theatre meets geothermal fire and the longest, most photogenic ten thousand kilometres of coastline you'll ever walk. We've been threading both islands for travellers from Brisbane and beyond for more than three decades, working with Māori-led operators wherever culture is the lens.

What travellers say

Sandra knew every guesthouse owner by name. When we arrived at Margaret River the cellar door was opened for us alone, half an hour before public access, and someone had already laid out the wines we'd asked about three months earlier in a Brisbane meeting. That's the difference between a tour and a Cooee trip.

Quick answers

Before you call us

What does Cooee Tours specialise in?

Brisbane-based tailored small-group tours across three regions: Australia (Reef, Red Centre, Tasmania, coastal), New Zealand (both islands, alpine premium), and the world (Europe, Asia, Africa, the Americas, Middle East, Pacific). Groups of every size welcome; some tours carry group-size restrictions. 50+ years of operation. One specialist plans and runs each trip end-to-end.

What size are the groups?

All group sizes are welcome — solo travellers, couples, families, social clubs and full-coach charters. Some tours carry group-size restrictions where the venues require it; each tour page states its limits clearly, and private custom tours run at whatever size your party actually is.

Can I book a custom or private tour?

Yes — private custom tours are a core part of what we do. Fully bespoke design around your dates, party, interests, and pace.

How do I get started?

Browse our three regional hubs — Australia, New Zealand, or the world — or send an enquiry. A Brisbane specialist will be in touch within 1 business day. Or call 0409 661 342.
