Overview

With just the right amount of time to experience the very best of Australia’s Red Centre, this journey takes you deep into its most iconic landscapes.

Stand in awe at Uluru as it changes colour with the light, explore the striking domes of Kata Tjuta, and walk through the dramatic gorges of Kings Canyon. Each day brings a new highlight, with time to truly take it all in, not just rush through it.

As the sun sets, settle into an authentic outback camping experience under a sky full of stars simple, real, and unforgettable, with a soft landing at the end of each day.

Start your adventure in Alice Springs and finish in Yulara, having experienced the Red Centre the way it’s meant to be seen: raw, powerful, and unforgettable.

Day by day itinerary

  1. 1Alice Springs to Uluru⌄

    With its 36 various-sized domes, Kata Tjta provides quite a contrast to Uluru. You’ll get to know the landscape pretty well on an afternoon hike between the domes.

    As the evening unfolds, enjoy a light snack as the sun slowly sets, casting a variety of earthy tones across Uluru.

    Meals: Lunch · Dinner

    Overnight: Powered camp (with shared facilities) (1 night)

  2. 2Uluru⌄

    An early start this morning is rewarded with an Uluru sunrise as the sun hits the icon like a beacon, before the light floods the surrounding landscape. Your guide will take you to one of the significant cultural sights of Uluru, outlining Anangu rock art and passing on one of the creation stories of the site. While the morning is fresh, the time is yours to enjoy the self-guided, full base walk of Uluru, taking in all of the textures and valleys up-close, which isn’t evident from afar.

    Once you’ve had lunch, perhaps purchase some art at the Cultural Centre, hand-crafted by local First Nation Peoples of the Western and Central Deserts.

    Meals: Breakfast · Lunch · Dinner

    Overnight: Powered camp (with shared facilities) (1 night)

  3. 3Kings Canyon⌄

    The main attraction of Watarrka National Park is undoubtedly Kings Canyon – a humungous gorge enclosed by sheer rock walls many meters high. With its porous sandstone, deep gullies and hidden rock pools, it provides shelter to more than 600 species of native plants and animals. Your guide will point these out on a trek that takes in the canyon’s most famous locations – the Lost City, the Garden of Eden, Amphitheatre, and ofcourse the North & South Walls of the canyon.

    This evening, you have choice to enjoy one of the following optional activities; a Sunset Camel Cruise, the Field of Lights, Sounds of Silence, the Wintjiri Wiru Drone display; or if you’d like to experience the Uluru sunset from a different perspective (and free of charge), tonight is the opportunity to do it!
