Longitude 131 – Yulara, Australia
Located almost directly underneath sacred Uluru (also known as Ayer’s Rock), this amazing vacation destination is a must-see for adventurers looking to explore the history and landscape of Australia. Set in the rolling red hills of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, the Longitude 131 resort is made up of large airy tents that house different gathering and sleeping spaces.
While you’re there, the resort offers plenty of options for custom tours – take a bike or even a helicopter into the desert, then get dropped off right outside your bedroom door. The suites start around $1,060, but you can also rent the luxurious Dune Pavilion, a larger, private suite for around $1,800 per night.
