I paid in Australian Dollars. One of the guides will likely be Australian so I think local currency would be easiest.
Thanks

Do you have any suggestions for the gratuities for the Adventure Guides? Australian dollars? US dollars? A prepaid Visa card? I'm at a loss on what to do.
It is now listed on the ABD website ...great news!Got an email from ABD last night stating our resort in Ayers Rock has been changed from Desert Gardens to Sails in the Desert.

I didn't get my email Is that a good change, Cousin Orville?
I believe Pixiepirate's Australian ABD is in a couple of weeks if I remember correctly and probably received an email because of the last minute change.
Yes, it's a good move by ABD. I ranted about the previous hotel towards the end of page 3.
Same here. Very much looking forward to your report!Pixiepirate... Have a GREAT time! I would love to hear about your experience with the weather. Since they typically run the adult trip this time of year, that is the one I'd probably go with. Although, I would consider a December trip for the summer weather. Base on Cousin Orville's report, the trip is bound to be spectacular!!!

Awesome! Have a fantastic time! And what a great time of year to go. Any plans for the New Year?? That would be amazing. Crazy and expensive, but I did do Times Square one year, so I guess I'm all about crazy and expensive
Wow!! What a great way to spend New Years!For NYE, we're actually going to see La Boheme at Sydney Opera House and then stay for the Midnight party and see fireworks on the North balcony. Should be amazing!!
OMG - we are leaving in less than 4 weeks for a 3-week trip across Australia and New Zealand (2 weeks in Aus and 1 week in NZ).
We're not going with ABD, so I did all the planning and arranging and it has been busy and stressful. My hubby and kids get to relax and enjoy while I'm in charge of all the details and am the acting "Adventure Guide".
I would give anything right now to have James and Dusty step in take all this madness away from me! I know we'll have a great time and while there may be a few issues, overall it'll be great.
I guess I just realized how spoiled I've been with ABD and how the premium is worth it! (we didn't sign up for this particular ABD since NZ wasn't included)
