Home to the most evocative and instantly recognisable of Australia’s landmarks, the Northern Territory has more to offer than majestic Uluru (Ayers Rock) alone. From the immense rocks and vast open expanse of the Red Centre to the wildlife, natural wonders and billabongs of the Top End, this is where you will find the quintessential Australian experience.
One of the best ways to explore this vast territory is by rail – journey on The Ghan from Alice Springs to Darwin or vice versa and admire the many sights of the Outback in style and comfort. You could pair this with a self drive around Australia’s Top End exploring Darwin, Katherine Gorge and Kakadu National Park.
Choose to focus on the Red Centre and take to the skies and soar high over the MacDonnell Ranges and World Heritage Listed Kata Tjuta National Park or admire Australia’s iconic monolith Uluru from the ground with the southern night sky shining bright above you.
It’s not just about where you go, but how you experience it. I’m here to turn that trip into an adventure you’ll cherish.
