PRIVATE EAST MAC'S EXPLORER

On this very personal, relaxed day tour, our first stop just outside Alice Springs is beautiful Emily Gap. The ideal time to view her glowing cliffs is in this perfect, early morning light. Relax and enjoy a geology spiel and a little cultural background information on this once bustling Arrernte homeland.
We then head down the track to stroll around majestic Corroboree Rock; an impressive limestone and dolomite formation traditionally visited only by Aboriginal men.
Then off to explore the stunning quartzite cliffs of Trephina Gorge, perhaps dropping in to hug the giant Ghost Gum along the way. The gorge itself offers a 2km, moderately challenging circuit hike along the ridge top with incredible views, as well as an alternate, shorter stroll up the sandy river bed between the towering cliffs of the gorge. The vast expanse of Trephina Creek's sandy river bed is the perfect spot to lie down for a spell and soak up the peaceful surrounds, or make sand angels while searching for faces of the ancient ancestors in the rocky outcrops towering perilously above.
After a delicious lunch in the open air, you can sit back and enjoy the scenic drive back to Alice Springs via pretty little Jessie Gap. Here the bird life is usually quite entertaining, and the afternoon light cast shadows of the river red gums over the white sand, making it the perfect time of day to visit.

PRIVATE WEST MAC'S WANDERER

This relaxing day trip starts by dropping into picturesque Simpson’s Gap to catch the early morning light bouncing off the orange cliffs, and perusing the terrain for the elusive black-footed rock wallaby.
Then off to Standley Chasm, which offers a serene cafe with yummy snacks, friendly staff and a lovely little gift shop. A 1km hike leads you to the sheer cliffs of this impressive chasm. This is a sacred women's site, and energy in this place is alive for those who choose to tune in!
Further out into the ranges we'll reach the towering cliffs of Ormiston Gorge to enjoy a delicious lunch and potentially a dip in the icy waters of this natural swimming hole. For those more energetically inclined, don't miss the short but steep hike up to the Ghost Gum Lookout for some impressive views down into the gorge.
Tracking back to Alice, we'll stop in at the Ochre Pits to ogle these bizarre but beautiful mineral deposits. This place is pretty as a picture, and is still actively used by the locals for ochre collection.
Then finally the stunning Ellery Creek Big Hole, offering the potential for another ice bath and some time to take in the incredible bird life and flora of this little oasis. Then it's time to relax on the bus for the scenic drive back to Alice Springs.
