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)
This tour starts and finishes in Alice Springs only, please advise us of your accommodation at the time of booking.

Alice Springs
Your adventure begins early as we depart from Alice Springs and head towards Uluru. Along the way, we’ll stop at the Mt Connor lookout (often mistaken for Uluru) to take in the views of this impressive red mountain, followed by a quick stop at Curtin Springs. After lunch, arrivals from Yulara Resort, Ayers Rock Campground, or Ayers Rock Airport (AYQ) will join the rest of the group. The afternoon brings a visit to the Red Centre’s Aboriginal Interpretive Cultural Centre where we dive into the rich cultural, ecological, and geological wonders of the national park. As anticipation builds, we get up close and personal with the mighty Uluru, uncovering its sacred rock art, family caves, and ancient stories on a base walk. Don’t miss the mesmerising Mutitjulu Waterhole or Kantju Gorge with its secret waterfall and the world’s oldest pantry. Finish the day with a knockout sunset and a dinner that’ll fuel those “wow” moments you’re about to have with your fellow adventurers.

Tonight, we’re camping at a super-exclusive safari spot situated on the lands of the traditional Wanmarra community, one of the most remote places on earth (you’re closer to the International Space Station than the nearest McDonalds).

5.00We had an excellent experience on the tour led by Matt (Donk) & Johnny (trainee guide). The tour was very well paced (this is important given the distances and heat!), safe and very informative. We learned a lot and felt like we had an immersive experience of the outback over the duration of the tour. Donk was an excellent tour leader and Johnny will be an erudite and great tour leader when he is accredited.
Fabulous four days!

5.00CJ and Libbi were absolutely outstanding guides throughout my four-day Ref Centre tour. From start to finish, they were incredibly patient, enthusiastic, and impressively knowledgeable. No question was ever too much, and they explained everything with clarity and genuine passion. Their constant smiles, positive energy, and tireless work ethic made the experience not only educational but truly enjoyable. You could tell they genuinely cared about the group and about making the tour the best it could possibly be. I couldn’t have asked for better guides—CJ and Libbi went above and beyond in every way. The food was amazing too!
Perfect

5.00Make no mistake, touring Australia's Red Center in January is a challenging, tough environment. It's hot, requiring early morning hiking through harsh terrain. The outdoor accommodations are remote. Given all that the tour was amazing and it all centered around our tour guide, Mikki. Mikki was absolutely outstanding. Her positive attitude and energy kept us going when the environment challenged us. Mikki would provide insights and stories of Australian history, geological facts, and aboriginal culture. Mikki set the tone everyday at every venue that was positive and inspiring. Thank you Mikki! An amazing tour.
Book this tour and (hopefully) get the best guide of the outback (CJ)

5.00If you really want to know more about the culture and nature in the outback then you are in the right place with this tour! Plenty to eat, great tents and a schedule adapted to the weather! Our guide CJ was really beyond expectations and made the tour extremely good for us. It always remains to be seen what a guide is like and what you can expect from it, but her infectious enthusiasm and real passion for her work was what made the tour truly special. The outback is of course beautiful but for us this experience was unforgettable. The guide really knew everything, was with us for 3 days and you could always contact her. She even organized games on the bus to make the sometimes long rides more enjoyable. She let us sleep in the bus to recover from the early morning and the long walks (while she drove us cheerfully to the next destination with even less sleep and the same walks) how she managed that? Like I said before; real passion for her profession. I used to joke that if she'd told me she'd be Steve Irwin's daughter, I would have believed it. And I think that is the best experience you can have in the outback!! Other guides along the way even said that she might be the best guide of the outback and that we were lucky! So CJ thank you so much and good luck to you!! Sorry for the long review but certainly did not want to sell this short!
Great trip

5.00Our 4-day tour through the Red Centre – Uluru, Kata Tjuta, Kings Canyon and the West MacDonnell Ranges – offered a truly special outdoor adventure and an unforgettable way to experience Australia’s unique beauty in all its raw authenticity. The tour was organised to absolute perfection. Every day was thoughtfully planned, varied, and ran seamlessly from start to finish. Our small group made the experience even more enjoyable, creating a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. A very special highlight was our guide, Adam. His extensive knowledge and genuine passion for the Red Centre brought every location to life. He made sure no question and no wish was left open or unfulfilled. We honestly couldn’t have imagined a better guide – Adam made this journey unforgettable. I would wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an authentic Australian adventure. A once-in-a-lifetime experience – highly recommended!
To really experience the Outback!

5.00We did the 4 days, 3 nights trip. The visits to Uluru and the King’s Canyon were our highlights. We got some insight into the cultural significance of the area. Driving through the Outback helpen us to feel for the immensity of the place. Strongly recommended for people who want to understand the Outback better, both culturally and nature wise. Aaron, our trip leader, did a magnificent job, handled everything from driving, guiding, facilitating food and accommodation, to irradiating a positive atmosphere. He made the trip a trip between friends.
A wonderful experience

5.00On the recommendation of friends, we booked the outdoor trip with Autopia. Adam, a very experienced tour guide with excellent knowledge of the local culture, geology, fauna, and flora, especially birds, left no question unanswered. He knew exactly when and where we needed to be to experience or discover the highlights, such as wallabies. The tour was very diverse, offering spectacular views from Kings Canyon to idyllic lakes for swimming. The accommodation in tented cabins was comfortable, and the food was varied and delicious. The initial group size of 18 people was a bit tight, but the final group size of around 12 was perfect. Mikki, a trainee tour guide on her first tour, stood out with her positive attitude and excellent support from Adam. The two of them already seemed like a well-coordinated team. Mikki will undoubtedly become a very good tour guide in her time, especially one passionate about people and the environment. Thank you for the spectacular nature experiences between Ayers Rock and Alice Springs. Stephan and Anke from Germany
