Detailed itinerary

Stop 1 Pass by

The incredible aerial view of Uluru is a must-see. On this flight we also take you across to the spectacular domes of Kata Tjuta for a view that will leave you speechless. Due to the sacredness of this area so much of it is off limits from the ground, so the only way to really appreciate these amazing formations is to see them from above. You will not be disappointed.

Stop 2 Pass by

After admiring Uluru and Kata Tjuta, fly over the Northern Territory’s largest salt lake, Lake Amadeus, and witness the amazing contrast of colours. Fully experience the Australian desert environment as you search for wild camels amongst the desert plains.
