  • Anzac Hill, Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia
    Our first visit of the day is at Anzac Hill, where you will be able to take in panoramic views over the town of Alice Springs and the surrounding MacDonnell ranges. You may be able to capture one photo to cover the entire town. Anzac Hill is a memorial dedicated to those who served in Australia’s defence forces during all international wars.
    20 minutes
  • John Flynn's Grave Historical Reserve, Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia
    Your next stopping will be at Flynn’s Grave Memorial, the resting place of Reverend Flynn, the founder of Royal Flying Doctor Service. We make short stopping to relax and enjoy the changing colours of the magnificent West MacDonnell Ranges and get some photos.
    20 minutes
  • Simpsons Gap, Burt Plain NT 0872, Australia
    Simpson Gap features the towering cliffs of Simpsons Range, a permanent waterhole and opportunities to spot resident wildlife, ancient Red River Gums with a taste of Central Australia. Simpsons Gap is a significant site to the local Arrernte Aboriginal people and was the mythological home of giant goanna ancestors. We will take you on a short, easy walk alongside a picturesque dry creek bed that leads to a dramatic gap in the MacDonnell Ranges and a waterhole rich in native wildlife, flora, and geology. Sometimes, you may even spot you might see Black-footed Rock-wallabies along the walking track into the rocky slopes gap. After your bush walk, your guide will invite you to complimentary bush Tea and Coffee at Simpsons Gap.
    40 minutes
  • Standley Chasm Angkerle, Northern Territory, Australia
    The next stop on your exploration of the West MacDonnell is a picturesque walk at Standley Chasm. After Mrs Ida Standley, who in 1914 became the first school teacher in Alice Springs, this place was named Standley Chasm. Walking access to the dramatic 80m sheer rock-face of the chasm is along a well-maintained trail (1.2km/15mins each way), following the natural creek bed with seating & interpretative signage. Angkerle Atwatye, “the Gap of Water”, is a striking geological formation with significant botanical, bird-watching & wildlife photography appeal.
    60 minutes
  • 875 Ilparpa Rd, Arumbera NT 0870, Australia
    Temple Bar Gap/ Honeymoon Gap is a small gap south of Larapinta Drive opposite Simpsons Gap, 14km west of Alice Springs. The gap is of great significance to the Arrernte people, the traditional owners of the land. Temple Bar Gap fell out of favour following the site becoming the honeymoon location for Robert (Bob) and Victoria (Vicky) Darken who married at the Alice Springs Methodist Church on 25 June 1942. Bob Darken was given a week's leave from the army and the couple planned to camp for a week at the gap and borrowed a car and a tent. The couple had repeated issues with the car and it rained for most of the week so, concerned for their safety, friends decided to visit them regularly; they said they were "going to see the honeymooners" or "going to honeymoon gap". It was not until 1981 that the name of the pass was officially changed to Honeymoon Gap and, in 2004, the NT Place Names Committee agreed that, the official name of the gap should remain Temple Bar Gap.
    20 minutes
  • Ilparpa Rd, Ilparpa NT 0873, Australia
    After Tempe Bar Gap/ Honeymoon Gap on our way back, you will enjoy unusual features of the natural landscape; the unique micro-climate in this valley has created some distinctive features, such as ancient Cycads and a myriad of rock types and pebbles that are thousands of years old, washed down from miles upstream. On your return journey, relax and enjoy the changing colours of the magnificent West MacDonnell Ranges. Finally, you will conclude with your trip and drop you back at your hotel.

We had a great half day tour with Mahesh. Our tour was funny as well as very informative. We had plenty of time to do the walks as well as capture memories with his help ( We have some great photos thanks Marshmallow! :-)) ) Mahesh also supplied some snacks & drinks mid tour. The group was small which made it easier to take in all the various places as well as information. Thanks for a great day

The whole experience was awesome. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely entertaining. We packed in plenty of sites but were never rushed, and the refreshments/nibbles were great. Both my wife and teenage daughter loved it as much as me. I highly recommend this tour.
