What to Expect

This 4 day, 3 night tour offers an authentic outback adventure travelling with a small group in a purpose built four-wheel drive vehicle, escorted by two professional guides. You will enjoy the wonders of Uluru (Ayers Rock), Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) and Watarrka (Kings Canyon).

This is a journey into the heart of the Red Centre.

Itinerary:

Day 1: Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Cultural Centre and Uluru sunset

For those electing to start in Alice Springs, you will be collected from your accommodation (or nearest pick up point) for the drive to one of Australia’s most famous icons – Uluru.

Guests starting at Ayers Rock Resort will join the group and then travel the short distance to Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. The afternoon is dedicated to exploring this extraordinary monolith starting with an interpretive walk led by your guide, who will explain the Aboriginal law and religion (Tjukurpa). You will also learn about the art and culture of the local custodians, the Anangu people, and visit the acclaimed Cultural Centre where you can explore the displays and learn of the flora and fauna unique to this area.

Experience the changing colours of Uluru at sunset complete with sparkling wine and nibbles and plenty of photo opportunities. This is a great time to kick back and contemplate the vastness of the desert while getting to know your fellow travellers.

Afterward, you'll have time to settle in at the private camp, complete with a dining experience before retiring to your swag under the amazing night sky or your comfortable safari tent complete with beds. Dinner included in day 1.

Day 2: Uluru and Kata Tjuta Sunrise, Kata Tjuta walks, Kings Creek Station bush camp

Rising early, take a short walk to a lookout close to the campsite to view sunrise over Uluru and Kata Tjuta without the hustle and bustle of the public viewing areas before heading off to Kata Tjuta for a walk through the "Valley of the Winds".

Afterward, the tour travels to Kings Creek Cattle Station for our second nights' remote private bush camp, complete with flushing bush toilets and hot showers. With nobody else for miles, this camp has stunning views out over the George Gill Ranges and gives you a real feel for the outback. Dinner around the campfire makes for a very social time with another night out under the stars. Tonight, listen for the sound of dingo’s howling in the distance while watching the desert sky light up above you. Breakfast, lunch, dinner included in day 2.

Day 3: Watarrka (Kings Canyon) National Park, indigenous cultural experience

The tour heads off to Watarrka (Kings Canyon) for a mind-blowing 6km walk through the towering walls, crevices, and plateaus of Watarrka. The tour visits the Amphitheatre, Lost City, and the tranquil ‘Garden of Eden’. Afterward, the tour travels a short distance to the next stop to enjoy a well-earned lunch followed by the opportunity to immerse yourself in an authentic indigenous cultural experience. Enjoy a leisurely guided walk with indigenous custodians while learning about bush tucker and the healing powers of bush medicine, and gain an insight into Aboriginal dot painting.

Late afternoon, the tour returns to Uluru for the final night in the outback, settling in for the last dinner together around the campfire. Marvel at the clearest skies you can imagine for one last night with your fellow travel mates. Breakfast, lunch, dinner included in day 3.

Day 4: Sunrise view of Uluru, depart Ayers Rock Resort or continue to Alice Springs

Enjoy your final breakfast in the Outback and witness sunrise over Uluru before a quick trip into the resort township. Here you will have free time to explore some of the resort facilities before boarding the airport shuttle to meet your outgoing flight or remain on the vehicle for those wishing to travel back to Alice Springs.

You will arrive in Alice Springs at approximately 4.00 pm. Accommodation is not included this night. If you are staying an extra night at Ayers Rock Resort, you may wish to participate in a range of free activities from Museum Tours to Bush Yarns. Breakfast included in day 4.

Due to the remote places, you visit and the adventurous nature of the safaris, Travel Insurance is highly recommended. The tour accepts no responsibility for lost, stolen or damaged property.

Note: During these uncertain times, the tour operator will offer a 100% refund up until the day prior to travel for cancellations due to border closures inhibiting your ability to travel - we may ask for proof of residency in this situation. Refunds will be processed within 7 days of cancellation. For flight cancellations and all other cancellations our standard terms of cancellation apply, we strongly recommend you take out travel insurance.

At times the operator may have to cancel a tour or service. In the event they do have to cancel, every effort will be made to offer a suitable alternative. If the alternative is not suitable the tour will refund your tour price in full. The tour reserves the right to cancel a tour and arrange an alternative operator (if possible) if group numbers are insufficient or combine safaris of differing standards in the event that low numbers are endangering a scheduled departure being cancelled. In this instance, passengers will always be upgraded to a higher standard product. Passengers travelling on a tour with upgraded passengers will not be entitled to refunds in these instances. The operator reserves the right to have multi-level pricing on products where it is necessary to ensure passengers' travel plans are not disrupted. In circumstances where the cancellation is due to external factors beyond our control, any potential refund will be less any unrecoverable cost which we may have incurred.
