At just nine weeks old, the newest heir to the throne, Prince George, is soon to embark on a world adventure, as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are planning a special trip to several countries, HollywoodLife reports.

So far, Prince William and Kate Middleton have taken their son to London, Bucklebury, Anglesey and Balmoral Castle in Scotland to meet great-grandfather Prince Philip, but the family is planning on embarking on a much bigger journey soon for an official royal tour, a trip that will mirror the one Princess Diana and Prince Charles took with William 30 years ago.

According to the Mirror, Queen Elizabeth II had to give William special permission to fly with his mother back in the day, as royal protocol "dictates an heir and the next in line should not fly together." Always one to take royal rules into her own hands, Princess Diana insisted that her son travel with his parents, and the Duke and Duchess are expecting to be granted similar permission from the Queen for Prince George, if necessary.

Where will the royal family be traveling to? Plans of visiting Australia and New Zealand for their big trip are currently in the works. On Aug. 14 at the Anglesey show in Wales, Prince William told guests that he hoped to take his family Down Under, and it looks like his dreams of exploring Oceania are coming true.

Since Prince William recently left his job as a search-and-rescue pilot, he's had more time to devote to his family and working with charities such as the Tusk Foundation. Since the announcement, the Duke and Duchess have put their North Anglesey, Wales cottage on the market for rent for at least £750 per month (though it is expected the luxurious home will rent for much more) and in the coming weeks are planning to move into their new Kensington Palace residence, Apartment 1-A.

"[Prince William] will continue to support the work of The Queen and the Royal Family through a program of official engagements, both at home and overseas, with The Duchess of Cambridge," the Palace announced in a press release. "The Duke will work closely over the next twelve months with the Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry. He will expand his work in the field of conservation, particularly in respect of endangered species. The Duke will continue to work with his charities on issues relating to children and young people, veterans and serving members of the Armed Forces."
