Full description
Meet your guides and fellow travelers for the trip at Ayers Rock Airport, then head straight into the National Park. Arrive at the park’s Aboriginal Cultural Center and view an array of authentic arts and crafts from the Anangu People, as well as listening to stories about their culture and history. From here take a short drive to the base of Uluru for a guided cultural walk to learn about the Mala People and their role within the landscape.
Continue towards the other side of the rock next and walk the tracks of the ancient snakes Kuniya and Liru, then finish off at Mutitjulu Waterhole where you can find the best cave art in the region. As the sun begins to set, head to and iconic Uluru viewpoint and watch the magnificent colors of the sky change and glow along the horizon. The day draws to a close with a healthy bush dinner back at camp before you fall asleep in a classic Aussie swag under a blanket of a billion stars.
On day 2 rising early from your swag is rewarded with breakfast and one of the best sunrises you will ever experience. Gaze upon the glow of the sun as light is returned to your desert surroundings, illuminating this magical landscape before your very eyes. After sunrise, take a 50 km drive and see the changing shapes of Kata Tjuta as you approach the National Park's second incredible formation. Follow your guide on a hike between the deep and mysterious valleys and feel as if you've momentarily arrived on another planet. Take advantage of the viewpoint here to capture some of the best photo opportunities the region has to offer.
