Trip Itinerary:
Day 1:
Departing Alice Springs bright and early, we hit the road on our
adventure of a lifetime (For those commencing the tour at Uluru,
we will collect you from the Outback Pioneer Hotel or the airport).
Our journey begins heading south through the Waterhouse and James
Ranges with a stop at the Camel Farm for a Camel ride if you're
keen (own expense). Visit Mount Ebenezer Roadhouse where you can
view or purchase Aboriginal artifacts. Stop to view Atila (Mount
Connor), a mesa tableland and the first significant rock formation
of our trip. After a stop for lunch and our arrival at the Uluru-Kata
Tjuta National Park, we travel to the base of Uluru where your guide
will lead you on an interpretive walk, hearing of the Aboriginal
law and religion (Tjukurpa). Continuing on, we meet our local Aboriginal
Guide who will provide a once in a lifetime authentic Indigenous
cultural experience with an interpretive walk to Mutitjulu Waterhole
where you will hear the stories of the unique landscapes, art and
culture of the local custodians, the Anangu people. We conclude
at the Cultural Centre, where you may explore the displays and learn
of the flora and fauna of this unique area. Experience the famous
changing colours of Uluru at sunset, away from the crowds, complete
with sparkling wine and nibbles. It's a great time to kick back
and contemplate the day and the vastness of the desert. Afterwards
settle in at our remote private camp, complete with our signature
Endless Star dining experience before retiring to your swag under
the amazing night sky or your comfortable safari tent complete with
beds.

Day 2:
Rising early, watch the sunrise over Uluru and Kata Tjuta from a
lookout close to our campsite and well away from the hustle and
bustle of the public viewing area. Afterwards depart for Kata Tjuta
and a hike through the "Valley of the Winds". Enjoy lunch before
heading to Kings Creek Station and our private campsite, miles from
the crowds where the feeling of wayoutback starts to take hold.
After a campfire dinner, kick back and be mesmerised by the millions
of stars on display

This morning take a guided walk to see the towering walls, crevices
and plateaus of Watarrka (Kings Canyon). Visit the Amphitheatre,
Lost City and the tranquil Garden of Eden. After Watarrka we 4WD
along the famous Mereenie Loop Road looking out for wildlife along
the way before arriving at our permanent camp at the small Aboriginal
community of Wallace Rockhole.

Day 4:
Spend today exploring the mighty West MacDonnell Ranges. Travelling
to Ormiston Gorge, keep your eyes peeled for Perentie Lizards lazing
along the banks and take a swim in the rock holes. Hike the Ghost
Gum Walk, a 1.5 hour loop that takes in views down through the
majestic Ormiston Gorge, before following the trail as it descends
down close to the gorge and along the rocky floor and Ormiston Waterhole.
Enjoy a BBQ lunch at Ormiston Gorge. We journey on to the Ochre
Pits, a registered sacred site offering a unique experience to view
the Ochre deposit still used to this day by the Traditional owners.
See the natural ochres that have provided materials for Indigenous
people for thousands of years. Afterwards, we travel on to Ellery
Creek Big Hole, one of the most picturesque swimming and walking
spots in the West MacDonnell Ranges. Surrounded by high red cliffs
and the sandy Ellery Creek, the waterhole has been carved out by
thousands of years of massive floods and is an internationally significant
geological site. The permanent water here made it a special meeting
place for the Arrernte people and is known to them as Udepata. Late
in the afternoon we travel back to Alice Springs, arriving at approximately
5.30pm. After a hot shower, join your fellow travellers for a farewell
meal, some laughs and a few cold ales.
