Some areas that we visit have great significance to the local Aborigines and as such are culturally sensitive. Access to these areas (which includes the Uluru (Ayers Rock) climb) may be restricted for cultural reasons for unspecified times and with little prior notice. We reserve the right to amend our itineraries or visit alternative areas in these circumstances and no refunds will be given.
