Delve deep into Coober Pedy to discover a unique outback town where more than half the residents live underground. Visit the underground church, the underground hotel and, of course, the Umoona Opal Mine and Museum that give the town its reputation as Australia’s Opal Capital.

Watch the sunset over Uluru and indulge in an unforgettable ‘Sounds of Silence’ dining experience. Traverse Kata Tjuta’s Valley of the Winds. Hike the Kings Canyon Rim Walk. You’ll arrive into Alice Springs having experienced the very best of the Heartland.
