It is in the vast reaches of the Outback, that you’ll truly discover the essence of the amazing place that is Australia. In the Red Centre, you will journey through some of the most astonishing landscapes on earth. You will marvel at the spectacular landforms of the region, learn how these landmarks were formed, see the expansive night sky awash in the blaze of a million stars and discover the amazing range of flora and fauna that survive out here in the often harsh lands of the outback.
Uluru is situated near the centre of a semi- arid desert, which most people would associate with a hot and dry climate. However, it surprises most that the temperature can vary so dramatically. Temperatures can range from 5° C in July to 37° C in January.
What classifies a desert a desert is the amount of rainfall it receives. On average Uluru-Kata Tjuta receives approximately 308mm (12 inches) per year. Not much at all. So you should consider it lucky if you get to see Uluru in the rain.

Longitude 131° offers the best of contemporary Australian cuisine, emphasising fresh, quality produce to mirror the tranquil, spiritual surrounds.
Communal dining in the Dune allows guests the chance to meet their fellow ‘campers’ and exchange stories of their desert encounters.
Breakfast features a mouth-watering selection from the continental buffet or an a la carte menu.
At lunch, guests choose from a buffet of cold meats complimented by an array of homemade gourmet salads.
Dinner comprises a three-course set menu, which changes daily and is based on the fusion of modern French cooking methods with fresh, Australian produce enhanced by indigenous flavours.
Morning and afternoon tea includes a selection of gourmet cakes complemented by Devonshire Tea or Andronicus Coffee.
Activities & Tours
