Your adventure begins with an early departure from Alice Springs or Yulara (Ayers Rock Airport), heading towards the iconic Uluru. Along the way, we will make a brief stop at Mount Connor (often referred to as “False Uluru” due to its similar appearance), offering a scenic viewpoint and a quick break at Curtin Springs. From there, we continue our journey to Uluru, where we’ll have lunch and a meet-up with guests arriving at Ayers Rock Airport.
The next stop is the Aboriginal Cultural Centre, where you’ll gain valuable insight into the rich history, stories, and cultural significance of the land you are about to explore. Afterward, prepare for an awe-inspiring experience as we take a guided walk around the base of Uluru, one of the most famous natural landmarks in the world. As you take in the breathtaking views, your guide will share the fascinating history behind ancient rock art, sacred waterholes such as Mutitjulu, and the Aboriginal stories of Kuniya the python and Liru the venomous snake.
The walk will continue to Kantju Gorge, home to the tallest waterfall in Central Australia (seasonal, depending on rainfall), and sacred caves that once served as nature’s pantry for the local Aboriginal people. As the day comes to a close, enjoy a delicious dinner while witnessing one of the world’s most stunning sunsets over Uluru. While the beauty is beyond words, you’ll have plenty of time to capture the moment and create lasting memories.
