Welcome to the outback! Central Australia is a rugged land of Dreamtime legends, endless vistas and immense beauty. Intrepid Travel's exploration of this mythic land takes in a slice of Aboriginal history and culture. Travelers will discover the stories surrounding the multihued monolith of Uluru, will experience life in the outback on an overnight bush camp and marvel at the pristine beauty of Kings Canyon.

There is a 4-Wheel-Drive camping safari that takes adventurers to see the sights of Uluru, Kata Tjuta (Ayers Rock, The Olgas) and Kings Canyon known to the locals as Watarrka. They will also get to experience the Australian outback, visit cattle stations, use bush tracks, and camp under the stars in exclusive 'permit-only' areas. Explorers will have the chance to experience the vast landscapes and beauty of the Australian outback.

Travelers will discover the rich diversity of the Alice, and will experience Uluru's mythic beauty, all while learning about the land from an indigenous point of view. After enjoying bush hikes through dramatic landscapes, they will embark on a 4WD trek across rolling plains and discover a Garden of Eden in the desert.
