See the quintessential Australian beauty of the sun-scorched Red Centre in a whole new light during this five-day luxury small-group tour (max. 16 travellers). Challenge everything you thought you knew about the Northern Territory as you rise with the sun on a hot air balloon ride over Alice Springs, soar over Uluru-Kata Tjuta via helicopter and delve deep into the sacred secrets of the outback on an intimate 4WD tour and Mt Conner sunset visit.
Travel into the Northern Territory's ethereal core and discover its rich Indigenous history and geological wonders, from Alice Springs to Kings Canyon and Uluru. Hike the Kings Canyon Rim Walk — 440 million years in the making — and find a new appreciation for the breathtaking magnitude of your own backyard. A powerful and ancient experience awaits as you connect with the spiritual land of Uluru-Kata Tjuta and watch the sunrise over Bruce Munro’s Field of Light art installation — made up of 50,000 spindles of light, breathing and swaying in beautiful ochre, deep violet, blue and gentle white. Learn about life in Australia's remote outback via local guides and feel the earth of the country's most sacred sites beneath your feet as you connect with the very heart of the Red Centre.
