Outback Ballooning
Surely, the most iconic image of Australia is the blood-red dust
of its sere and sparse Outback - and what better way to experience
it than from a hot air balloon, in the dawn hours, with the sky
full of a million colours? Alice Springs' Outback Ballooning
company has been offering this once-in-a-lifetime experience to
eager visitors since 1986, and has built a solid reputation for
itself as a high-quality, and dependable tour operator (with an
impeccable safety record). You'll be accompanied on your hot air
balloon ride - which also includes refreshments and a light
breakfast - by an informative guide, to ensure you get the full
effect of the unique landscape spread out beneath you. Visitors of
all ages, sizes, shapes and fitness levels are welcome, and are all
bound to leave with a memory they'll cherish for the rest of their
lives. Don't forget to pack your camera.

The Australian Dollar (AUD) is divided into 100 cents. Banks and
bureaux de change exchange most foreign currencies. Travellers
cheques are also welcome everywhere, but banks take a small
commission and it is better to take cheques in major currencies
(e.g. US dollars or Euros) to avoid additional charges. Credit
cards are widely accepted and ATMs are freely available throughout
the country. Banking hours are generally 9.30am to 4pm Monday to
Thursday, and 9.30am to 5pm on Friday, but some banks offer
extended hours and some are open on Saturday mornings.
