Billy Connolly's World Tour of Australia is the second in a line of ‘world tours’ that follow comedian Billy Connolly on his various travels across the globe. Filmed in 1995, Connolly takes the viewer on a scenic and informative tour of Australia, intercut with scenes from his stand-up comedy act at various venues around the country. The tour takes in Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin, Alice Springs and Fraser Island. On the way, Connolly also experiences and demonstrates several Australian customs, traditions, and attractions, including swimming with the dolphins in Perth, eating a pie floater in Adelaide, and several museums and galleries, most of which feature some form of Aboriginal art.

Billy Connolly's World Tour of Australia Audience Reviews

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
maz underscore I'm Australian, have lived in Sydney most my life, and after watching Bill Connolly's World Tour of Australia, it's obvious to me that he knows more about my country that I do! Billy takes us to Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Rottenest Island and other beautiful places. He swims with dolphins, climbs the Opera House and Harbor Bridge and has some other amazing experiences which are a treat to watch. This tour is entertaining, inspiring, educational and it's interspersed with segments from his stand up shows, which are, as always, hilarious.Great for fans of Billy and fans of travel.
Yak-6 Billy Connolly is a very funny bloke - always has been, always will be. This travelogue had me glued to the screen - as much for Billy's account of Australia as for his jokes. The only problem I can see with it is that he spends waaaaay too much time in Sydney. (I live in Melbourne!).
