The video is a courtesy of Norfolk Island TourismTravel Masters and The Travel Studio invite you to embark on an extraordinary journey with us, a fully escorted small-group tour to the enchanting Norfolk Island—a remote and historic gem awaiting discovery! Nestled in the vast expanse of the South Pacific, Norfolk Island, an external Australian territory, boasts a population of approximately 1,750 permanent residents. Situated over 1,500 kilometres from the Australian mainland, Norfolk Island is universally picturesque and uniquely different, this tiny 8 km by 5 km volcanic outcrop is a haven of lush rolling green hills and dramatic rocky shorelines.
Shaped by centuries of genealogy and isolation, Norfolk Islanders have cultivated a homeland that stands apart from the complexities of modern life. It's a place where time seems to slow, and the islanders proudly proclaim Norfolk as the 'Best Place on Earth.' The children of Norfolk grow up surrounded by the embrace of a strong sense of family and community, a testament to the island's unique culture and history.
