Northern Territory Tour
A Once in a Lifetime Experience.
Wantirna College’s annual Northern Territory Tour takes place during the last week of Term 2 and the first week of the school holidays.
The tour provides students with a wonderful opportunity to witness, first hand, the wonders of the Australian outback. From the majestic red centre, to the stunning beauty of the top end, the tour is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Students fly to their first destination, which is either Uluru (Ayers Rock) or Darwin, depending on the direction that the tour will take (touring North or touring South). They then travel by coach through the heart of the country in luxury coaches with the journey, itself, a part of the adventure.
Some of the highlights of the trip include:
- Uluru (Ayers Rock)
- Kata Tjuta (The Olga’s)
- Kings Canyon (Watarraka National Park)
