Due to the extensive planning and costs associated with touring, the following cancellation fees will apply in the event you should cancel for any reason.

<ul>
	<li>Within 15-30 days of departure &ndash; 50% of total price</li>
	<li>Within 14 days &ndash; 100% of total price</li>
</ul>

Due to the remote places, you visit and the adventurous nature of the&nbsp;safaris, Travel Insurance is highly recommended. The tour&nbsp;accepts no responsibility for lost, stolen or damaged property.

 
Note: During these uncertain times, the tour operator will offer a 100% refund up until the day prior to travel for cancellations due to border closures inhibiting your ability to travel - we may ask for proof of residency in this situation. Refunds will be processed within 7 days of cancellation. &nbsp;For flight cancellations and all other cancellations our standard terms of cancellation apply, we strongly recommend you take out travel insurance. 
&nbsp;

At times the operator may&nbsp;have to cancel a tour or service. In the event they&nbsp;do have to cancel,&nbsp;every effort will be made to offer a suitable alternative. If the alternative is not suitable the tour will refund your tour price in full. The tour reserves the right to cancel a tour and arrange an alternative operator (if possible) if group numbers are insufficient or combine safaris of differing standards in the event that low numbers are endangering a scheduled departure being cancelled. In this instance, passengers will always be upgraded to a higher standard product. Passengers travelling on a tour with upgraded passengers will not be entitled to refunds in these instances. The operator&nbsp;reserves the right to have multi-level pricing on products where it is necessary to ensure passengers&#39; travel plans are not disrupted. In circumstances where the cancellation is due to external factors beyond our control, any potential refund will be less any unrecoverable cost which we may have incurred. Valid for bookings made from 1 July 2020 onwards and for travel until 31 March 2022.

Itinerary: 
 
&nbsp;</h2>

Day 1: Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Cultural Centre and Uluru sunset

 
 
For those electing to start in Alice Springs, you will be collected from your accommodation (or nearest pickup point) for the drive to one of Australia&rsquo;s most famous icons &ndash; Uluru. Guests starting at Ayers Rock Resort will join the group and then travel the short distance to Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. 
 
 
 
The afternoon is dedicated to exploring this extraordinary monolith starting with an interpretive walk led by your guide, who will explain the Aboriginal law and religion (Tjukurpa).&nbsp;You will also learn about the art and culture of the local custodians, the Anangu people, and visit the acclaimed Cultural Centre where you can explore the displays and learn of the flora and fauna unique to this area.

 
 
Experience the famous changing colours of Uluru at sunset complete with sparkling wine and nibbles and plenty of photo opportunities. This is a great time to kick back and contemplate the vastness of the desert while getting to know your fellow travellers.

 
 
Afterward,&nbsp;you&#39;ll have time to settle in at the private camp, complete with a&nbsp;dining experience before retiring to your swag under the amazing night sky or your comfortable safari tent complete with beds. Dinner included on day 1.

Afterward, the tour goes to Kings Creek Cattle Station for the&nbsp;second nights&#39; remote private bush camp, complete with flushing bush toilets and hot showers. With nobody else for miles, this camp has stunning views out over the George Gill Ranges and gives you a real feel for the outback. Dinner around the campfire makes for a very social time with another night out under the stars. Tonight, listen for the sound of dingoes howling in the distance while watching the desert sky light up above you.&nbsp;Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included on day 2.

&nbsp;

Day 3: Watarrka (Kings Canyon) National Park, Tylers Pass, remote private bush camp

&nbsp;

Afterward, the tour&nbsp;travels a short distance to the&nbsp;next stop to enjoy a well-earned lunch followed by a scenic four-wheel drive to Tyler&rsquo;s Pass, which presents majestic 360-degree views of this stunning landscape. From here you will see views of Tnorala (Gosses Bluff crater) a sacred site that scientists believe to be the remnants of an object from space believed to be a comet, that crashed to earth around 142.5 million years ago. Tyler&rsquo;s Pass on the famous Mereenie Loop road presents a great opportunity to spot native wildlife amongst amazing scenery.

 
 
The tour ends the afternoon at our remote bush camp in the Western MacDonnell Ranges. Sleep under the clearest skies with no light pollution. You will think that you can almost touch the stars. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included on day 3.

&nbsp;

Day 4: West MacDonnell Ranges, including Mt Sonder Lookout, Ormiston Gorge, Ellery Creek Big Hole, and the Ochre Pits

Heading further east along the ranges, the tour&nbsp;visits the Ochre Pits, a registered sacred site still used by traditional owners for its Ochre deposits. 
 
 
 
The tour&nbsp;also visits Ellery Creek Big Hole, one of the West MacDonnell Ranges&#39; most picturesque swimming and walking spots known to the locals as Udepata. After lunch, the tour drives&nbsp;to Owen Springs Reserve and 4WD onto Redbank Waterhole bush camp, collecting firewood along the way to keep you warm in our most remote camp of the trip. Enjoy dinner and stargazing around the campfire.&nbsp;Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included on day 4. 
 
&nbsp;

Day 5: Camel Farm, Indigenous Cultural Experience and overnight camp at Yulara

 
 
Enjoy a relaxed breakfast before&nbsp;making your way to Uluru, stopping en-route at the Outback Camel Farm. Here, the tour sees how these amazing ships of the desert are so critical to the fabric of the red centre, as the oldest form of transport.

 
 
Next stop is to enjoy a well-earned lunch followed by the opportunity to immerse yourself in an authentic indigenous cultural experience. Enjoy a leisurely guided walk with&nbsp;indigenous custodians while learning about bush tucker and the healing powers of bush medicine, we also gain an insight into Aboriginal dot paintings.

 
 
The tour heads to Uluru for our final night in the outback. Viewing Atila along the way and stopping at Curtin Springs cattle station for a comfort stop, you&rsquo;ll arrive at dusk at our comfortable camp for a nice hot shower. Due to the short winter days, viewing sunset on Uluru is not achievable this evening. Settle in for the&nbsp;last dinner together around the campfire and marvel again at some of the clearest skies you can imagine.

&nbsp;

Day 6; Sunrise view of Uluru, depart Ayers Rock Resort or continue to Alice Springs
