Home / Extend the Journey / Optional Upgrade – Coober Pedy: Painted Hills & Lake Eyre Scenic Flight
Enjoy the visual extremities of the painted hills and Lake Eyre, the largest inland Lake in Australia.

$1,299 per person | Limited Availability
Soar above the stunning Anna Creek Painted Hills, where rocky outcrops and vibrant colours create a dramatic contrast to the surrounding desert. From the air, the ever-changing light reveals the beauty of this unique terrain, perfect for photographers. A guided tour on the ground delves into the geology, ecology, and cultural significance of this remarkable site.

Next, visit Lake Eyre, Australia’s lowest point, with vast salt flats that shimmer with a white crystallised surface. When the sun shifts, the lake reflects a stunning pink hue, creating an ethereal landscape.

 

Enjoy lunch at the William Creek Hotel, an oasis in the desert offering a taste of outback life. Then, take a flight over Coober Pedy, a town known for its underground living. From above, see how residents have adapted to the harsh conditions, creating a unique outback community.
