Pricing Guide

Accommodation Ratings

Prices featured in accommodation listings are per room for the period specified unless otherwise stated. The “from” price in the property heading has been calculated using the cheapest nightly rate available, ie. in the lead-in room type, in off-peak season using the longest stay (eg. 7 nights). If a free night offer is available, even if for part of a season, this has been included when calculating the “from” price. A minimum stay is generally required. Where prices for more than a one night stay are featured, the prices refer to stays of consecutive nights.

STAR and Diamond ratings are used throughout the brochure to describe the standard of accommodation.

Central Australia

Top End

Rich earth and wild landscapes make for a stunning setting for your journey to the Red Centre. Get ready for an escape to the true Australian outback and all of its natural wonders.

It’s a nature lover’s paradise in the Top End. Kakadu National Park, Litchfield National Park, Katherine Gorge and Arnhem Land – they’re all in the Top End and jam-packed with stunning waterfalls and lush landscapes. Fill your itinerary with walks, fishing and four wheel drive adventures. The tropical weather means warm days to discover the indigenous culture before settling into a brilliant sunset each night.

The moment you first set eyes on Uluru (Ayers Rock) will be a moment you won’t easily forget. Bask in the shadow of the 348 metre high monolith to appreciate one of the great wonders of the world. The place is sacred to the local Anangu people and it’s easy to see why. Take a walk with the traditional landowners where locals will share stories of their culture, wildlife, bush foods and Aboriginal stories. Want more? Head further into Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park to Kata Tjuta (The Olgas). The 36 rocky domes date back hundreds of millions of years. They do things big in the Northern Territory. Take Kings Canyon on the western edge of the George Gill Ranges in Watarrka National Park. Look up at 270 metres of sheer red rock face as it towers over an oasis of palms, ferns and waterholes below. From big to bold, be met by a host of vibrant personalities in colourful Alice Springs. The outback town in the heart of the country is your gateway to Central Australia and rich with pioneering history. Sit down with a local to hear stories of Afghan cameleers, flying doctors and intrepid explorers. Join the fun at a variety of quirky festivals throughout the year in celebration of the town’s heritage. Alice Springs is a true outback experience made easy with modern conveniences. It may be remote, but Alice Springs is surrounded by beauty. The MacDonnell Ranges are a major drawcard and an easy drive from Alice Springs. By day, unlock the unique character of the West MacDonnell’s chasms and gorges. Take a dip in one of the swimming holes or lace up the walking shoes for a trek among the gorges. By night, the ranges take on a red glow in the evening light.

Base yourself in Darwin for a fun break. The Northern Territory capital is a great starting point for trips to Kakadu, Arnhem Land, Litchfield National Park or the Tiwi Islands. The outback meets the tropics in Katherine. Ready for some adventure? Take your pick of cruises through the network of rivers, escarpments and gorges. Katherine Gorge in Nitmiluk National Park is a must see. Love nature? Set your sights on Kakadu National Park. The World Heritage Listed area offers access to Aboriginal rock art and an abundance of wildlife. See rugged escarpments and plunging gorges. Explore lush wetlands and cascading waterfalls. You’ll fall for the charm of tropical Kakadu. Arnhem Land is a place like no other. Time stands still and ancient culture lives on. The Aboriginal-owned 91,000 square kilometre region is one of the last great unspoilt areas in the world. Seek out Aboriginal art to appreciate the area’s cultural significance. Dramatic escarpments, rugged coastlines and rainforests are a photographer’s delight. Spend the day fishing in some of the most isolated grounds or take off in a four wheel drive to test your skills in the rugged terrain. For a holiday with a difference, Arnhem Land is a must see. Plan your trip around the seasons to see the best of the Top End. See the region at its most rugged and make the most of the outdoor activities during the dry season from May to September. The waterfalls and landscape explode into life during the green (wet) season, from October to April. Most tours run all year but some areas are inaccessible between December and May.

By Rail Take the ultimate journey through the heart of Australia on The Ghan. This amazing rail journey begins in Adelaide and traverses the Red Centre, passing through Alice Springs and Katherine before concluding in Darwin in the Top End (also operates in reverse).

See page 56 for details or ask your travel agent about the great specials Avis has to offer.

We offer a selection of suggested driving itineraries, providing you with the freedom to see the Northern Territory at your own pace. Refer to the Self Drive Holidays starting on page 11 for more details. Speed limits apply in all urban areas and highways of the Territory. Travellers should drive at a speed that suits the road, vehicle, weather conditions and their driving experience. Avoid driving after dark, as cattle and wildlife often congregate alongside outback highways at night. Be aware that rental car insurance is void for accidents after dark, outside of built-up areas.

Aboriginal Culture Almost one quarter of the Northern Territory’s population are Aboriginal people and approximately half of the Territory is Aboriginal-owned land. Family business and ceremonies are important for Aboriginal people and these matters take priority, which may alter scheduled tours or restrict access to sites with spiritual significance.

Fees and Permits A national park entry fee applies for visitors to Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park and Kakadu National Park. Many tours do not include this fee so it is essential to purchase a national park ticket prior to commencing your touring. Tickets can be purchased from National Park Entry Stations. Driving over Aboriginal owned land and access into Arnhem Land is restricted. Visitors must apply for a permit from the Northern Land Council or alternatively choose a tour where operators have permission from the traditional owners to enter their land.

Our Local Secrets For a fine dining experience I would head to… Hanuman Restaurant on Darwin’s busy Mitchell Street, a menu of both Indian and Thai cuisine served in exquisite surroundings.

For an Outback Experience I would visit… The Overlanders Steakhouse nestled among the MacDonnell Ranges in Alice Springs, serving up freshly baked damper, emu and kangaroo.

If I had a free day I would travel to… Fannie Bay Gaol, a historic gaol located in Darwin’s Fannie Bay. Visit the depths of the gallows, where in 1952 the last Northern Territory execution took place.

Swimming The Northern Territory has many safe places to swim, including local nature reserves and in some national parks. Salt and freshwater crocodiles are found in most Top End billabongs and rivers, and are occasionally seen on remote beaches. This is generally sign-posted, but if you are unsure, don’t swim. Beach swimming is not recommended from October to April due to marine stingers.

Central Australia Central Australia

Alice Springs and Beyond Welcome to Alice Springs, with it's modern and vibrant atmosphere, it's the perfect destination to explore the best the outback has to offer. The outback town is the hub of Central Australia and is rich with culture and Aboriginal heritage. Make this your first stop before heading out to explore the Red Centre. Through red earth and rugged terrain, the lands beyond Alice Springs await. Marvel at the dramatic chasms and gorges of the MacDonnell Ranges. Take a dip in the permanent pool of Simpsons Gap, where you will spot rock wallabies in the rocky ridges. Catch a glimpse of Standley Chasm light up the midday sky with bright colours. For the ultimate cool down, swimming holes offer a refreshing relief at Ellery Creek Big Hole, Ormiston Gorge and Glen Helen Gorge. Venture to the beautiful rugged landscape of Tennant Creek to discover the giant granite boulders of Karlu Karlu, also known as the Devils Marbles. Scattered through the valley, Karlu Karlu is a spectacular sight to see glowing red in the light of the early evening.

Uluru (Ayers Rock) The massive sandstone monolith of Uluru is Australia’s most recognisable natural icon, rising 348 metres above the desert plain and located about 335 kilometres south west of the nearest town, Alice Springs. Take a walking tour with the Anangu traditional landowners, where locals will share stories of their culture, wildlife, bush foods and Aboriginal Creation stories. Further west, Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) offers more astounding sights. The 36 rock domes date back 500 million years. Tackle the challenging Valley of the Winds Walk. You’ll reap the rewards when you see the breathtaking views over the desert plains of the Red Centre. For an easier pace, take a leisurely stroll at Walpa Gorge and walk through Kata Tjuta’s enormous domes. As the sun rises and sets over Australia’s most famous rock formations, you won’t want to be anywhere else.

Kings Canyon Travel around 300 kilometres from Uluru or Alice Springs and you’ll discover another of Central Australia’s highlights. The 270 metre high chasm of Kings Canyon in Watarrka National Park. Trek through walking trails to palm-filled crevices and along the canyon rim to marvel at views across the desert. Spot native plants and wildlife as you go by foot through Kings Canyon. It’s a must to add to the itinerary!

KINGS CANYON

Kings Canyon

Travel 300 kilometres north east of Uluru into Watarrka National Park and you’ll find some of the most striking scenery in Central Australia. Kings Canyon is on the western edge of the George Gill Ranges and is an impressive chasm plunging to depths of 270 metres, with soaring rocky cliff faces and lush vegetation. It’s rich in native animals and plants sheltering from the desert surrounds, and home to the Luritja people for over 20,000 years.

Our Favourites

Get back to nature and adventure with a walk through the area. For those who are energetic, there is a Kings Canyon Rim Walk with spectacular views of the surrounding landscape and the canyon’s sheer red rock face. See the weathered beehive-shaped rock formations of the Lost City. Venturing down into its depths, see thriving cycads, palms and ferns in the enchantingly named Garden of Eden; a sheltered valley with permanent waterholes.

Take a scenic helicopter flight over Kings Canyon

Looking for a more leisurely pace? The Kings Creek Walk to the centre of the canyon is just the ticket. This shorter walk meanders up Kings Creek to a lookout point. It’s one of Central Australia’s most stunning natural environments.

Explore spectacular Kings Canyon on a guided walk Enjoy a nightly dining experience under the stars

Kings Canyon Climb

Kings Canyon Helicopter Tours

Under The Desert Moon

If you are staying at Kings Canyon Resort, why not experience the rim walk? In the cool of the morning join your driver guide for a three hour guided climb to the rim of Kings Canyon. Marvel at the breathtaking views of Watarrka National Park and into the canyon itself. The rim walk is rocky and steep in places and is recommended for those with a good level of fitness.

The best way to fully appreciate the grandeur of this spectacular canyon and the surrounding rugged region is on an aerial tour. Enjoy a 15 minute scenic flight on the Kings Canyon Only tour and fly over the canyon, the domes of the Lost City, the Garden of Eden and onto the western end of the George Gill Range. The 30 minute Kings Canyon and George Gill Range scenic flight heads along the cliffs of the range to Petermann Pound. Explore the area and take the opportunity to spot wild camels and brumbies before crossing the range and returning to Kings Canyon Resort.

Imagine the romance of a table for two in a wilderness setting under a canopy of the southern night sky. The only light comes from the moon and the flickering glow of the fire. The only sounds is soft music intertwined with the whispering of the breeze through the desert oak trees and the crackling flames.

Litchfield National Park

Litchfield National Park

You will see a landscape that has been formed by water and time with abounding waterfalls, monsoon rainforest, bush walking tracks, swimming holes and amazing Magnetic and Cathedral termite mounds. Enjoy a barbecue lunch with your fellow travellers and relax in this truly amazing part of 'The Territory'.

Litchfield National Park includes several types of typical Top End habitats including lush monsoon forests, termite mounds, unusual rock formations, waterfalls and cascades. The Park encloses much of the spectacular Tabletop Range, which is a wide sandstone plateau mostly surrounded by cliffs. During the green season four major waterfalls thunder from the cliffs to tropical rock pools many metres below. During the dry season, the waterfalls flow more gently, making the waterholes perfect spots for a cool dip.

Leaving Darwin, follow the Stuart Highway via the township of Batchelor to Litchfield National Park. View Florence Falls, Wangi Falls and Buley Rockhole where you have the opportunity to cool down in the series of plunge pools. Visit Tolmer Falls for a magnificent view of the water cascading down to the deep waterhole below. A great day also for taking many interesting photos, including the amazing stand of termite mounds.

Katherine Gorge, Nitmiluk National Park

Set your sights on adventure as you leave behind Darwin and venture into some of the Top End's standout locations. Litchfield National Park has a well deserved reputation as the locals’ favourite. The Tolmer, Wangi and Florence Falls are the star attractions. During the green season, watch the water thunder from cliffs into rock pools. For the rest of the year, cool off in calmer waters with a dip in the waterholes. It’s your own tropical oasis. The Katherine region’s most fantastic attraction is Katherine (Nitmiluk) Gorge in Nitmiluk National Park. A cruise on the river by boat or canoe is the best way to explore its 13 gorges. Stop over at picturesque Katherine Hot Springs, take in stunning waterfalls and see an abundance of wildlife or ancient rock art on overwhelming gorge walls. Katherine is the ideal starting point for a nature escape. With the town as your base, head out for an underground tour to the tropical limestone Cutta Cutta Caves or see the outback way of life at Springvale Homestead. Just over 115 kilometres south of Darwin, the township of Adelaide River is just the spot for a stop when travelling between Darwin and Katherine. The Adelaide River War Cemetery, the town’s main attraction, is a historic reminder of the role the region played during World War II and well worth a visit.
