    We then head to the base of Uluru (Ayers Rock), which is next to the entrance to the Uluru climb. From here one of the two guides will take you on a guided Mala Walk. The Mala Walk follows the north-west side of Uluru, where there are many fine examples of Anangu rock art, and you can experience the wonder of the sheer vertical walls. The guide will tell Dreamtime stories of the Anangu People. We drive from the front of Uluru around to the Kuniya car park, which is at the back of Uluru. From here we start our second Uluru guided walk to the Mutitjulu Waterhole. The guide will take you along a short track to the Mutitjulu Waterhole – home of an ancestral water snake called Wanampi. The guide will share stories of local traditions and explain how the Anangu people traditionally used the waterhole for hunting. The caves containing rock art were used in the past by Anangu still alive today.

Uluru - highly recommended

Published on Feb, 2025

Very happy with the trip to Uluru. Our driver, Miguel, and our guide, Yad, were both great. Especially appreciated the cold towels on the hot day.

Fantastic experience delivered with a friendly professionalism.

Published on Feb, 2025

We were collected from our hotel by a very comfortable, smart coach and helpful, happy driver. Jon gave a commentary during the long journey which was so good that I enjoyed every kilometre. He let us rest in between a wealth of information and story telling of early farmers, explorers, first nation people's, the environment and places of interest. A natural, enthusiastic guide, we felt safe and informed but also entertained. We had a brief lunch then over to the Uluru centre. We could have been longer at the centre, but the tour was next, and the high light of the day. Yad was very organised and led us confidently. His creation stories were well described and even a little acted out! He shared his knowledge with enthusiasm but also with great respect. He was friendly and thoughtful....so polite! We enjoyed our BBQ very much. I am vegetarian so pre ordered my meal and I was surprised at how much care was taken by Yad and the team. Jon drove us back to Alice Springs and despite the late hour we never felt anything but safe and cared for. He laughed with all the guests, as if he had known us all for years. He helped others with their luggage, ensuring they were delivered to their hotels safely. The dedication and attention to detail by these staff members made the trip even more enjoyable. A trip to Uluru is a never to be forgotten experience and we hope to repeat in the future.

Great Way to Visit Ayers Rock

Published on Jan, 2025

This was an excellent way to see Uluru without having to stay in Ayer’s Rock. The 450 km trip, each way, required a long five-and-a-half-hour ride in the bus. Our driver, Miguel, handled the job very professionally. Once we arrived in Ayer’s Rock Yad took over as our driver/guide and kept everyone on track. He was very good at telling us the story about the Aboriginal peoples and their relationship with Uluru. Our BBQ dinner, with drinks, was well organized and delicious. We all had time to enjoy our meal and drinks and take in sunset over Uluru.

Great, But Tiring

Published on Jan, 2025

I was picked up right on time. The drivers and guide were fantastic. Sebastian drove the luxury tour bus to Yulara and back. He's a pro. Imagine how challenging it is to drive 5 hours, in the dark, on a 2-lane road? 3 times we encountered animals. That was scary, but Sebastian handled it well. Yad was our driver in Yulara over to Uluru, our guide around Ayers Rock and the grill master for the sunset BBQ. He was so knowledge and kind. He had apples for the group and even provided us with ice cold towels during our walk. It was so appreciated!!! The food was good and they had good options for vegetarians. I learned a lot about the aboriginal people from that area and seeing the rock up close and from a distance was amazing and rather spiritual. The only problem with this tour is that the drive from and back to Alice Springs is sooo long and tiring - 5 hours each way!!! I recommend spending a couple of days in Alice Springs, take the tour, but stay at least a second day in Yulara.

Beautiful views

It was a good trip just a long day. It was interesting to see the outback. The tour/driver had good information. The tour guide around Ayers Rick was good but sometimes hard to understand because if his accent
