Itinerary

On arrival at Ayers Rock Airport you'll be transferred to the resort (flights to arrive prior to 3.00pm). Travel to the Uluru sunset viewing area.

You'll be overwhelmed by its incredible size, presence and inherent spirituality. Stay: Outback Hotel & Lodge, Desert Gardens Hotel or Sails in the Desert Hotel, Ayers Rock Resort (4 nights.)

Watch the spectacular sunrise over Kata Tjuta from the western dune viewing area. Your Driver Guide will then escort you on a 2-3 hour walk to the Valley of the Winds. Marvel at the unique flora and admire the view of the central valley of the domes of Kata Tjuta. (B)

Travel to Kings Canyon and make the rocky climb to the rim of the canyon for marvellous views of Watarrka National Park. Or, you may wish to take an easier, shorter walk to explore the boulder-strewn canyon creek bed. Return to Ayers Rock Resort. (B)

Join your guide on the 11km walk around the entire base of Uluru from Kuniya Piti. The Mala Walk includes a visit into Kantju Gorge. At Mutitjulu Waterhole view Aboriginal rock art. This afternoon travel to Kata Tjuta and take in an outback sunset while enjoying sparkling wine. (B)
