IMPORTANT INFORMATION
START POINT LOCATION & TIME
This trip starts in Alice Springs with a pick-up on day 1 at 8:00 am. It is very important that you are on time as we will be departing for Kings Canyon right away and are unable to delay our departure. We recommend you arrive a day prior to your trip.

CAMPING
The accommodation on this trip is at private semi-permanent tented campsites. Tents are approximately 3x3 metres and are twin-share, unless a single supplement has been purchased. You'll have stretcher beds with a mat to sleep on and pillows are provided. Please bring your own sleeping bag, or alternatively you can hire a sleeping bag at an additional cost. Please ask your booking agent to request a sleeping bag for you if you like to take advantage of this option. Please note that facilities are shared with other nearby campsites, including toilets and shower blocks, which are a short walk from where we camp. There are no power outlets available at camp, so please bring a power bank.
SINGLE SUPPLEMENT
Tents on this trip are twin-share. A single supplement is available if you’d prefer not to share a tent on this trip. The single supplement applies to all nights of your trip and is subject to availability. Please speak to your booking agent for further information. Please note that all tents have single beds. No double beds are available.
SLEEPING BAG
A sleeping bag is recommended for this trip. Please bring your own or request to hire one through us at the time of booking (additional cost).
