For Nature Lovers

Whether you’re a nature lover or a history buff, the Alice Spring tours offer a taster of everything so you can begin to understand the complex narratives that surround it.

Your tour starts in the picturesque landscape of Alice Springs and takes you through a kaleidoscope of colours, views, and stories.

Landscapes

It’s the gateway to some of central Australia’s most stirring landscapes: Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is a four-hour drive away, while closer still, the ruggedly beautiful MacDonnell Ranges stretch east and west; you don’t have to venture far to find yourself among ochre-red gorges, pastel-hued hills and ghostly white gum trees.

Culture

Alice is a key touchstone for understanding Aboriginal Australia in all its complexity and its present-day challenges. The Aboriginal name for Alice Springs is Mparntwe, and the region’s traditional owners are the Arrernte, although many different Aboriginal communities now call Alice Spring home.
