Once again conxity.com is proud to be featuring packages from Rainbow High Vacations - the Canadian company that has been sending revellers from around the world to Sydney for Mardi Gras for over 15 years. This year's packages take advantage of the mutli-weekend format and give you maximum flexibility to make sure that you can enjoy all that Mardi Gras (and Sydney) has to offer.
And because the Atlantis South Pacific cruise will be finishing off in Sydney on the first weekend, Rainbow High Vacations is offering packages designed specifically for Atlantis cruisers who will be disembarking the ship on Sunday, February 28th.
Of course, all of these packages can be customized any way you'd like. We can use almost any other hotel, include airport transfers or parade seating, add special extras like a helicopter tour of Sydney Harbour or a couple of extra days in the Hunter Valley. And we can help you plan your travels throughout the rest of Australia, New Zealand and South Pacific islands like Fiji and Tahiti.

Noosa, on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, is the traditional post-Mardi Gras recovery destination for most Aussies. The Basic Noosa Package gives you downtime on the beach while the Deluxe Noosa Package includes parties, events and a terrific 4WD tour of Fraser Island.
