Day 1:
Alice Springs to
Uluru
Our adventure begins travelling through the James and Waterhouse
Ranges to the Outback Camel Farm where many passengers will
have their first opportunity to ride a camel (at own expense). We
journey onto Uluru (Ayers Rock) viewing the unique scenery along the
way. After lunch at Yulara, we set out to explore the wonder of
Kata Tjuta (Olgas) and hike the Valley of the Winds. We return to
watch the desert sun set over Uluru.
After a hearty dinner at our permanent campsite, enjoy the
brilliance of the outback sky then curl up for the night in our
tents or if you prefer, under the millions of stars in an authentic
Aussie bedroll (swag). (LD)
Day 2:
Uluru to Kings Canyon
An early start is required for one of the highlights of the tour -
the Uluru sunrise. You can choose to climb the rock or enjoy a
walk around the base, exploring the mysterious rock formations
and Aboriginal art sites while watching the changing light on the
desert. A visit to the Cultural Centre offers the chance to view
and purchase Aboriginal arts and crafts. After lunch, we head to
Kings Canyon for our overnight safari accommoadation and some delicious camp
oven cooking. (BLD)
Day 3:
Kings Canyon to Alice
Springs
Climb and explore Kings Canyon, viewing the impressive formations
of the ‘Amphitheatre’, ‘The Lost City’, the picturesque ‘Garden of
Eden’ and the breathtaking North and South Walls. We then

way. (BL)
