How you can win $20,000 towards the overseas holiday of your dreams

What could $20,000 do for your travel bucket list?

Perhaps you'd finally see the glaciers and wildlife of the Arctic, search for lemurs and chameleons in Madagascar, or wander Tokyo's streets before heading for Mount Fuji.

One lucky reader will get the chance to turn that daydream into a real holiday, with a $20,000 Bunnik Tours voucher up for grabs this September.

The competition is being run by The Senior, part of the ACM network, and the voucher is valid for 36 months, giving the winner plenty of time to plan where that $20,000 could take them.

And Australians certainly aren't losing their appetite for overseas travel.

Australian Bureau of Statistics data shows Australians took 12.7 million overseas trips in the last financial year, up 4 per cent on the previous year and 32 per cent compared with a decade ago.

Around three in five overseas trips were for a holiday, while Indonesia has overtaken New Zealand as Australia's most popular international destination, accounting for 14 per cent of trips.

Older Australians are particularly enthusiastic travellers.

According to Bunnik Tours' 2026 Baby Boomer Traveller Trends report, Baby Boomers planned an average of 1.3 international trips a year, compared with a national average of 0.72.

Japan topped their travel wish lists, followed by Italy, Egypt, Spain and Sri Lanka.

Bunnik Tours specialises in small-group travel, with itineraries designed to combine major sights with local experiences and cultural immersion.
