Uluru Day Trip from Alice Springs Including BBQ Dinner
Your full-day tour starts early with morning pickup from Alice Springs by comfortable air-conditioned coach. Travel through the West MacDonnell Ranges heading towards your first stop at Erldunda Roadhouse where you can purchase breakfast. You'll take rest stops during the 6-hour drive and your guide provides a packed lunch to eat during the final 10 miles (18 km) that lead to World Heritage-listed Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. (Effective to all bookings traveling from 01 April 2024 and onwards, lunch will no longer be included) Upon arrival in the national park, head to Walpa Gorge for your first walk. View the dome-shaped rock formations of Kata Tjuta from a close vantage point as you walk about 1.5 miles (2.6km). Then learn more about the Aboriginal Pitjantjatjara people and Central Australia at the Uluru-Kata Tjuta Cultural Centre. (Effective to all bookings traveling from 01 April 2024 and onwards, Kata Tjuta will no longer be a part of the itinerary) Next, go to the base of Uluru (Ayers Rock) for the Mala Walk, which features fine examples of Aboriginal rock art, plus sheer rock walls and important sites for the Aboriginal people. Then drive to the other side of Uluru for a short walk to the Mutitjulu Waterhole. As you marvel at the shimmering water and red rock, learn from your guide about the legend of the ancestral water snake named Wanampi. Before sundown, go to the Uluru sunset viewing area for the highlight of the day: watching the sun set over Uluru. Sip a glass of bubbly and appetizers as the sky changes color, then feast on a classic Australian barbecue dinner buffet. When night falls, start the drive back to to Alice Springs where your tour ends with hotel drop-off late at night.
