Our Red carpet to do list for King Charles and Queen Camilla

The pair are reportedly planning an Australian visit in late 2024. It will mark the couple's first trip to our shores in six years, and their first as King and Queen.

So, what are the must see stops they should add to their itinerary? From high tea to high tide, The Senior looks at some Aussie travel destinations that are truly fit for a king.

If the royal couple are peckish for some tea and pastries, they won't be short of options when it comes to high tea - or afternoon tea, as they call it in England.

Whether it is Melbourne's Appartement 26 by Anton Venoir, Sydney's Amora Jamison, or Spicers Balfour at Brisbane, there are great places to enjoy a sip and scones all over the country.

The Queen of Adelaide or Fleur at Perth's Royal Hotel are especially highly recommended due to their regal names.

The High Tea Society has an extensive list of Australia's best high tea destinations on its website. For more information visit highteasociety.com.

Surrounded by stunning coastline, Australia's beaches are the envy of any tourist, so a day in the sand and surf is a must.

Sydney's Bondi Beach is no doubt the country's most famous, while Surfer's Paradise's Main Beach is another tourist hot spot and Byron Bay is a great place to rub shoulders with other celebrities.

If they want to go somewhere a little less crowded, the King and Queen may want to enjoy the pristine blue waters and soft silica sand of Whitehaven Beach in the Whitsundays, or a spectacular sunset while watching the camels stroll by at Broome's Cable Beach.

One beach Camilla might want to steer well clear of is Perth's Cottesloe Beach. Bikini clad model Jane Priest famously stole a kiss from the new King after a morning dip during his visit in 1979.

These days there's nothing more peaceful than cruising down the Murray River, but much like the Thames, it used to be a bustling hub of industry, transporting passengers and cargo.

A trip on the paddle steamer PS Marion - based at the Mannum Dock Discovery Centre, is a great way to take in the river's beautiful ecosystem while learning about its working history.

The fully-restored heritage-listed vessel was built in 1897 and is one of the last operational, steam driven, wood fired, overnight passenger carrying side paddle steamers in the world.

Throughout its history it has been used as a hawking steamer (floating store), passenger ship and cargo carrier. It now offers both short cruises and multi-night adventures.

We know King Charles likes a good drop, and is it any wonder? It must be nice to be able to spend time in the company of a high class red without having to worry about it writing a tell all autobiography!

Charles was spotted in French wine country as recently as last September, so a trip to McLaren Vale's wine region in South Australia is a must.

The region offers a chance to enjoy Shiraz the way it should taste, as well as some delicious Grenache grapes.

The spectacularly designed d'Arenberg Cube boasts five levels that have been carefully designed to entice the senses, including a wine sensory room, virtual fermenter, 360 degree video room and much more.

Charles and Camilla are well-known green thumbs, so a trip to Perth's Kings Park should definitely be added to the to-do list.

Charles famously attended Geelong Grammar's Timbertop Outdoor Adventure School when he was 16, and loved every minute of it. On weekends he would stay at the High Country farm of the Tozer family.

On the day Charles left the farm, he told 11-year-old Jane Tozer he had a special gift for her and thinking it was the bike she had long wanted, Jane was overwhelmed with excitement. It turned out to be an autographed photo and Jane was so cranky she ripped it to shreds.

But time heels all wounds, and if Jane is still around, some sort of reunion might be in order. We just recommend Charles make one stop first - to Australia's biggest online new and used bike marketplace Bike Exchange.

It might not be possible to visit the old farmstead, or the Timbertop Adventure School, but there are still plenty of reasons to visit the High Country.

The region's stunning mountains, valleys and lakes offer breathtaking scenery and adventure opportunities, while the region also boasts fantastic restaurants, wineries and craft breweries. farm gates and provedors offer a great chance to fill your basket with delicious produce.
