In Alice itself there are quite a few good things to go to, many of which are quite unique and aren't the same as the type of thing you might find in other cities. One of my favourites was the Alice Springs Desert Park, where you get to see lots of the different animals from around the area. The Alice Springs Reptile Park is also quite good, but not as good as the Desert Park.
The Royal Flying Doctor Service Visitor Centre is quite interesting, and then next door is the old gaol, which also has a museum dedicated to women, mostly pioneers.
On Larapinta Drive is the Araluen Cultural Precinct, which has lots of different things within it, including art galleries, a memorial cemetery, an aviation museum and the Museum of Central Australia.
There is of course also Ayers Rock, but that is actually over 400km from Alice Springs, and will probably need to be seen on a multi-day trip from Alice.
