Booking Flights to Alice Springs:

Qantas is currently the only airline flying to Alice on a daily basis. Tiger flies from Melbourne only and not on a daily basis.

You will need to fly in the day before the camp or earlier, as we will pick you up from your accommodation around 10am
We don’t get back to Alice in time for out- bound flights on the day we return from the Camp.
So book your flight home for the day after we return, or stay longer as Alice has much to see.
You will need at least 2 nights accommodation in Alice Springs

Booking Accommodation In Alice Springs

It’s hard for us to personally recommend accommodation as we don’t know what you expect and there is heaps to chose from.

We strongly recommend however that you stay right in town so you can get around easily, safely and inexpensivley.

Some possibilities in the CBD are:
YHA for good cheap accommodation right in heart of town (they have a limited number of single rooms) Ph: 8953 4165
Desert Rose for middle range and in town Ph: 8952 1411
The Aurora Ph: 8950 6666 or The Diplomat 1300 65 6565 are more expensive, but right in town

Alternativlely go to the Central Australian Tourism website as they have a listing of all accommodation.
