Our Experiences

Immerse Yourself in Culture and Nature

Tjarnintja Birdwatching & Cultural Tours offers a variety of tours, each designed to connect you with the land, the birds, and the rich cultural heritage of the Arrernte people. Our tours are led by William Palmer and other local guides who are deeply connected to the land and its traditions.

  • A unique opportunity for tour operators and private self-drive visitors travelling through Tjoritja/West MacDonnell National Park to engage a highly qualified Arrernte cultural tourism guide and bird knowledge expert.

  • Half, full and multi-day options available for lead guide William Palmer of Tjarnintja Tours to ‘step on’ or meet you at various sites in Tjoritja or the Olive Pink Botanic Garden and share his deep Arrernte knowledge and connection to Country.

  • Our tours offers more than just a journey through nature; our tours provide an immersive cultural experience that connects visitors to the land and its unique birdlife through the lens of ancient Aboriginal knowledge, language and traditions.
