The flight from Alice Springs highlights
the magnificence and vastness of the Australian interior. Marvel
at Uluru from the air before landing at Ayers Rock airport where
you transfer directly to your 4WD and personal guide for your
journey out to Kata Tjuta (the Olgas) passing by the Spinifex
grasslands and Mulga trees. Your first stop is at a dune lookout
which puts you in touch with the environment and lets you delight
in the spectacular panoramic view of Kata Tjuta (the Olgas) -
a very sacred place to the Aboriginal people. Arriving at Olga
Gorge, we walk into this mystic place, to hear how it has evolved
over millions of years.
After exploring the area we leave the
sheer red walls and head to Ayers Rock Resort for lunch.
When
we arrive at Uluru a short walk will bring you close to this
wonderful and powerful place. View rock art, waterholes
and appreciate the unique flora and fauna of Uluru. But
most fascinating is the relationship of the Anangu people to
Uluru,
you will see where the people lived and carried out ceremonies.
As you get back in the plane you now know that from a distance
Uluru is spectacular; from close up it is powerful and
deeply moving.”
We depart Ayers Rock airport at sunset
to enjoy an aerial tour of Uluru and Kata Tjuta in all their
glory before
returning to
Alice Springs. (Itinerary may vary depending on seasonality) |
