Red Centre Luxury Holidays

Uluru (Ayers Rock) is one of the leading icons of Australia. Once you've witnessed the magic of a sunset or sunrise, you'll see why. Take time to learn about the cultural importance of Uluru and you'll soon feel part of this mystical region. What's more, for some real outback indulgence, book a stay at one of the best luxury wilderness hotels in the world, Longitude 131. Enjoying uninterrupted views of Uluru, this is a unique and romantic experience not to be missed.

Uluru's cousin Kata Tjuta is just 40 kilometres away and you'll find the awe-inspiring Kings Canyon not far from Alice Springs. You might not realise that this landscape has green vegetation and lush waterholes as well as dusty red roads and huge slabs of rock. And what you won't really understand until you get here is the magic, majesty, silence and splendid isolation of Australia's Red Centre.

Make sure you don't miss out on visiting Kings Canyon and Watarrka National Park. Trek to the rim of Kings Canyon for breathtaking views across the rugged bluffs and gorges of Watarrka National Park. The canyon's towering rock walls shelter palm-filled crevices and pockets of lush green in otherwise inhospitable desert. See rare plants from a lone-gone wetter age and swim in the tropical pools of the Garden of Eden. Explore the weathered rock domes of the Lost City. See sunset at Carmichael Crag, take the Kathleen Springs Walk to a pretty waterhole or trek overnight on the Giles Track.

A visit to the Red Centre will stay with you long after you return home.
