If you’re short on time but hungry for adventure, this Uluru Adventure Yulara tour packs the very best of the Red Centre into four unforgettable days. Starting and finishing in Yulara — just minutes from Ayers Rock Airport — this Australian outback adventure is designed for travellers who want maximum experience with minimal fuss.
Explore the spiritual heart of Australia as you visit Uluru, Kata Tjuta (the Olgas) and Kings Canyon with expert local guides. Walk among the domes of Kata Tjuta, experience sunrise at the base of Uluru, and take in breathtaking views from the Kings Canyon Rim.
Evenings deliver classic Outback experiences — enjoy meals under the stars, relax by the campfire, and stay in comfortable permanent safari-style tents. Along the way, gain insight into local culture with visits to the Uluru Cultural Centre and stories shared by Anangu guides.
This Red Centre tour is perfect for families with older children, active travellers, and anyone wanting an authentic yet easy-going Outback adventure. Prefer a different start point? A similar Uluru tour is also available from Alice Springs.
Start your Uluru Adventure Yulara tour by meeting your guide at the Desert Gardens Hotel at 1:45 pm. Shortly after you arrive, the unmistakable Uluru will emerge from the earth as one giant boulder. Walk off your lunch at Kata Tjuta (The Olga’s), only a short drive from its counterpart. With its 36 various-sized domes, it provides quite a contrast to Uluru. You’ll get to know the landscape pretty well on an afternoon hike between the domes.
As the evening unfolds, enjoy a light snack as the sun slowly sets, casting a variety of earthy tones across Uluru. The perfect end to a remarkable day awaits you back at camp, where you can enjoy a delicious spread of food with your group. If the weather permits, sit outside under the stars.
An early start this morning is rewarded with an Uluru sunrise as the sun hits the icon like a beacon, before it floods across the surrounding landscape. While the morning is fresh, enjoy a walk around the base of Uluru, taking in all of the textures and valleys of Uluru, which isn’t evident from afar.
Once you’ve had lunch, perhaps purchase some art, crafted by First Peoples of Australia from the Central and Western Deserts regions at the Cultural Centre. Travel to our exclusive campsite near the Watarrka National Park (Kings Canyon), where the group will eat and sleep for the night.
The main attraction of Watarrka National Park is undoubtedly Kings Canyon – a huge gorge enclosed by sheer rock walls many meters high. With its porous sandstone, deep gullies and hidden rock pools, it provides shelter to more than 600 species of native plants and animals. Your guide will point these out on a trek that takes in the canyon’s most famous locations – the Lost City, the Garden of Eden, Amphitheatre, and of course the North & South Walls of the canyon. After lunch, we hit the road again for a three-hour drive to Yulara.
In the evening, you have a choice to enjoy one of the following optional activities: a Sunset Camel Cruise, the Field of Lights, Sounds of Silence, the Wintjiri Wiru Drone display, or if you’d like to experience the Uluru sunset from a different perspective (and free of charge), tonight is the opportunity to do it! After dinner, relax at your camp for a night under the stars.
After a short sleep-in, enjoy a hearty breakfast at our exclusive camp. Depending on your departure time, choose to take our free 10-minute transfer direct to Yulara’s Desert Gardens Hotel, or Uluru Airport (Ayers Rock Airport, airport code: AYQ). If you have plenty of spare time before your flight, you have the opportunity to leave your luggage at the Desert Gardens Hotel and spend some time in Yulara Resort shopping at your leisure. Please note: There are regular free airport shuttles from the Desert Gardens Hotel to the Ayers Rock Airport.
