Four days, exploring four iconic locations (Uluru, Kings Canyon, Kata Tjuta and Tjoritja West MacDonnell Ranges) all wrapped up in one tour. This small group adventure encompasses the very best the Red Centre has to offer. There is a very good reason why Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. In 1987, the international community recognized the park's spectacular geological formations, rare plants, and exceptional natural beauty. A few of the highlights include exploring Ormiston Gorge, Ochre Pits and Ellery Creek Big Hole, hiking through the Valley of the Winds or Walpa Gorge, and exploring Mutitjulu Waterhole, Kuniya Piti, and Kantju Gorge.
We provide two different sleeping options at our permanent campsites, with twin share safari tents, or you can try out a traditional swag experience. (canvas-covered bedroll)

Our group had an atypical experience in that there was "unprecedented"rains resulting in flooding of trails and dirt roads. A blessing for the land, challenging for the guide and group. Our guide, Jordan, is amazing. Personable, patient, knowledgeable, and skilled in the outback. Our group was also small, 6, instead of usual 20 that helped given the weather; and they were a great group that flowed with the events. This was a summer excursion in december. Suppose to be very hot. There is plenty of fresh water and healthy snacks, 3 meals/day provided by company. Guide is driver, trail guide, chief cook; group helps w clean up. The camps are equipped w running water for shower and toilets-greatly appreciated at the end of a hot sweaty day. Cots in tent-cabin are clean and adequate. The van is very comfortable and 4wd which got us through some very muddy dirt roads. The hikes are in beautiful areas, the choices well thought out. Guide is safety conscious. Added kudos to Francois another guide who helped out the 2nd nite when our original camp was too flooded and we used his camp and he cooked a delicious curry. Jordan, your BBQ w beef, kangaroo, and camel with salad while watching sunset over Uluru was amazing. The company is responsive to messaging. I think it has done a great job putting this trip together with appropriate equipment, safety practices, and guide.

We found this tour to be very comprehensive in its coverage of the areas we were visiting. Alex, our driver & guide was brilliant and made the experience one we will cherish for a long time. Her knowledge of the sites visited, including their history and significance to the indigenous people of the area, was comprehensive and revealing. Her enthusiasm for the area was infectious. All 22 disparate travellers pitched in willingly to ensure that the 'chore' element of the camping adventure ran smoothly and we were always ready to GO after every stop. I would strongly recommend this tour as the way to see Australia's outback where you actually get to experience it in a way more closely resembling the days of old.

Seeing the magic of the outback was incredible. It can be a challenge with the heat and flies, but the trip is worth it

This was a beautiful four day tour showing the best of the sites that this area has to offer. The camping sites were great and the outdoor atmosphere enhanced the experience. Mitch, our tour guide, was funny, engaging , a great driver and cook and cool under all circumstances. But what made him exceptional was his in depth experience and knowledge of this part of Australia including personal stories of his interaction with some of the indigenous people. A great experience that I would recommend everyone experience in a life time

WE had an incredible trip - I guess the best moment was sitting in the silence of Ormiston Gorge watching Black footed Rock Wallabies, as a squadron of budgerigars shot through, the sun glinting off their wings... but the whole trip was amazing. Not for the faint of heart if you like your home comforts, but if you love the wild this is the trip for you.
