Hi Guys,
Im not far away from getting married now and they honeymoon will be shortly after that. Tegan and I were doing some final pre planning last night and i wanted to run the itinerary by you all to make sure that we arent missing out on anything. ANY input would be greatly appreciated. Also, should i carry much cash out there? i usually just use card for everything but would assume that having a small sum of cash on hand would be handy?
We're going to Central Australia, here is the itinerary:
Day 1: Fly into Alice Springs, were just gonna wander round town (although i dont expect there will be much around on a Sunday?)
Day 2: Pickup Campervan, Leave Alice on Namatijira Drive. Drive to Stanley Chasm and Simpsons Gap Camping along Hugh River 51KM
Day 3: Visit Serpentine Creek and Ellery Creek Big Hole. Staying at Ormiston Gorge 93 KM
Day 4: Still in Ormiston Gorge
Day 5: Staying near Tylers Pass( we cant find anywhere halfway between kings canyon and ormiston gorge, yes if roads are open we will be travelling down the back/dirt road) 32KM
Day 6: Kings Canyon Resort
Day 7: Kings Canyon Resort
Day 8: Kings Canyon Resort
Day 9: Uluru & Surrounds 321KM
Day 10: Uluru & Surrounds
Day 11: Uluru & Surrounds
Day 12: Visit Mt Connor Lookout Stay at Curtin Springs 102KM
Day 13: Redbank Waterhole (near Owen Springs Reserve)
Day 14: Last Night in Alice
Day 15: Fly to Darwin
Day 16: Darwin
Day 17: Darwin
Day 18: Flying Home to sydney
In the central oz part were thinking of doing a few touristy things,
- Helicopter ride in kings canyon
- Camel ride over the Macdonnell Ranges
- Possibly a hot air baloon ride around Alice
- Lots of walking
Now Darwin was a last minute add-on to the trip, but were thinking of going to Litchfield NP, Berry Springs and a river boat cruise. For anyone that knows the area are those places worth seeing? Or are there places that are even more worth seeing? lol.
Like I said, if any of you know any of these places and think i have missed anything important or worth seeing i would appreciate the input greatly.
Cheers
Nic
