? Natural wonders of the Northern Territory
? Trek the dramatic Katherine Gorge
? Cruise the waterways of the Yellow Water Billabong

Sydney & Uluru/Ayers Rock
After a day in vibrant, confident Sydney we fly across the vast Outback to Yulara. From here we take in an awesome array of natural wonders: the red domes of Kata Tjuta/The Olgas, the "amphitheatre" at Kings Canyon, plus of course the imposing majesty of Uluru/Ayers Rock itself. Heading north we come to the Devil's Marbles, where erosion has created enormous spherical granite boulders - the eggs of the Rainbow Serpent, according to aboriginal legend


Katherine Gorge & Kakadu
Next we drive on to Katherine, where we can explore the dramatic gorge on foot or by boat. In Kakadu, famous for its wildlife and aboriginal rock paintings, we learn about the extraordinary culture of Australia's first inhabitants at Nourlangie, and take a boat trip on the Yellow Water Billabong, home to the native crocodile. Finally we travel via Litchfield National Park to Darwin where the tour ends. See red route on map.
