Description:
Let 5 days in the Outback show you how the landscape captured the imaginations of the continent as you take a guided tour to its most spectacular sights. See Uluru and Kings Canyon, explore the history of Alice Springs, and see rare endangered animals at the famous Desert Park.
Day 1:
Spend some time in the afternoon exploring Walpa Gorge as you follow a walking trail that takes you between the immense domed rock formations of Kata Tjuta. As evening sets in, travel to a sunset viewing area and watch the deepening reddish hues on the giant rock face of Uluru as the landscape dims to twilight.
Day 2:
Visit the Uluru sunrise viewing area of Talinguru Nyakunytjaku to see the morning light fall across the Red Centre, take a tour around the base of Uluru, and stop at the charming Mutitjulu Waterhole to view Aboriginal rock paintings and learn about the area. Visit the Uluru-Kata Tjuta Cultural Centre, where you can see a collection of Aboriginal arts and crafts.
Day 3:
Hike out to Kings Canyon to learn about the geology and history of this amazing formation. You can either hike around the canyon rim for marvelous views of Watarrka National Park or take a more leisurely walk along the boulder-strewn canyon floor. In the afternoon, you travel to Alice Springs.
Day 4:
Rise early for your transfer to Alice Springs Desert Park, where you can witness free-flying birds at the Nature Theatre presentation and meet rare and endangered animals. You have time to explore the park until noon, when the return transfer brings you back to your hotel.
In the afternoon, tour the historic sights of 'The Alice,' including the Telegraph Station, the Royal Flying Doctor Service, and the School of the Air. See unique central Australian reptiles at the Alice Springs Reptile Centre and enjoy panoramic views of Alice Springs and the surrounding mountains from the top of Anzac Hill.
Day 5:
Depart Alice Springs for a transfer to the city's airport as your tour comes to an end.
