Uluru is universally known as a natural wonder of the world but here locally, it is a sacred symbol of Australia, our red beating heart in the country’s centre that captures the spirit of the nation. No matter how many photos you’ve seen, nothing can ever prepare you for the wave of awe and wonder you’ll feel when you see it up close and personal rising up from the horizon. While the highlight of this trip is a guided hike around the base of Uluru, you’ll also meet new furry friends at the camel farm, explore the 36 domes of Kata Tjuta, trek around Kings Canyon, and sleep under a canopy of glittering stars. Buckle up for a truly life-changing experience.

Get pumped for Day 1! Meet your guide and fellow travellers at Aurora Alice Springs early in the morning before setting off to a working camel farm. Enjoy meeting these beautiful creatures, each with their endearing personalities. You might be lucky get a ride in!&nbsp;
Then we’re headed to Kata Tjuta for lunch and an afternoon hike. Kata Tjuta is lesser-known than Uluru but is no less one of Australia’s most brilliant sights with 36 domes of rock popping up out of the red desert earth. We’ll watch the vibrant shades of colour dancing on Uluru for the sunset with some tasty snacks before making our way to camp for a delicious dinner. Cross your fingers for clear skies to fall asleep under a night full of stars.

Permanent tented camp (with shared facilities) 

Day 1: Alice Springs to Uluru

It’s all about the sunsets and sunrises in the Outback. Rise early to be rewarded with a beautiful Uluru sunrise. We’ll go on an interpretive cultural walk with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander guide around the base of the rock to learn about the land and the local Mala people, and even hear an Uluru Dreamtime story or two! We’ll have lunch here and then explore the Uluru Cultural Centre where you can buy local art and craft. Then it’s onto our next exclusive campsite within Watarrka National Park (Kings Canyon) where we’ll be staying the night.&nbsp;
Note: Total driving time today is around three-and-a-half hours. Total walking time is approximately two hours (or up to four if you do the full 8.5km base walk.)

Day 2: Uluru

It’s already our last day but it’s not over just yet! We’ll be discovering Watarrka’s main attraction, Kings Canyon. You’ll be taken away by the enormous gorge rising 270 metres above sea level and 440 million years in the making. Escape the desert’s searing heat in the canyon’s shady walls with deep gullies and soaring domes and plateaus plummeting to an ancient oasis of rock pools teaming with flora and fauna. We’ll be taken to the most famous sites including the Lost City, Garden of Eden, Amphitheatre and the North and South Walls. We’ll share a final meal together over lunch and return to Alice to say farewell.
