Palm Valley is home to a diverse range of plant species, including the Red Cabbage palm, which is restricted to this area.

Day 2 It's an early start to the day, as we make our way to Kings Canyon. The canyon offers the more active an opportunity to stretch out and hike around the rim where you will see the amazing sweeping views of the Central Australian landscape and the Garden of Eden. For those who want to soak up the spirit and historic side of this ancient land, you can enjoy a shaded walk of the canyon floor surrounds by large boulders and ancient cycad plants. After our picnic lunch we travel on to Voyages Ayers Rock Resort, a long the way we'll stop to view Mt Conner, towering up over 244 metres above the desert landscape. On arrival at the resort we check in to the Desert Gardens Hotel. In the afternoon we travel out to the Uluru/Kata Tjuta National Park and visit the Cultural Centre.

Returning to the resort in the early evening. Overnight: Situated 18 km from Uluru is the Ayers Rock Resort. Tonight's accommodation is at the Voyages Desert Gardens Hotel in a deluxe room. Day 3 At dawn we make our way west to the unusual geological dome formations of Kata Tjuta. Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) rises 546m from the desert floor and in the language of the local Anangu people, Kata Tjuta means 'heads many'. Your guide will explain the local stories and pioneering history. In the midday leave the National Park and return to the resort.
