What to expect
There is only one Uluru. This full-day guided tour from Alice Springs or Ayers Rock Resort gives you the complete experience — walking the ancient base, understanding the living culture of the Anangu people, and ending the day with a BBQ dinner and cold drinks as Uluru’s colours deepen and shift at sunset.
Travel with Emu Run’s expert guides, who bring Uluru’s stories to life at every stop — from the Mala Walk, where Tjukurpa (Dreamtime) narratives are painted into the rock itself, to the Mutitjulu Waterhole, a permanent sacred spring tucked into the southern face of Uluru.
The highlight is a relaxed BBQ dinner with beer, wine, sparkling and soft drinks, enjoyed as the sun sets on Uluru and an unforgettable day.
Reviews
very relaxing tour with beautiful sunsets and dishes. Our tour guide Yad is nice and responsible.
The guide was very passionate in all day. BBQ was also nice and enough to get full for every people. Our guide explained a lot about this area in even the bus. I would like to say thank you to my guide. Sunset was the most beautiful in my life. I felt I was in the middle of the world. That was so special feeling to me.
Day Tour, No issues. On-time Hotel pick up and drop off. **Australia FLIES are ANNOYING ! ! ! Please Please Please BUY FLYNET / HEAD COVER From Supermarket or shop Before your trip!! Too many ANNOYING AUSTRALIA FLIES... Sunset Dinner was beautiful, BUT TOO MANY ANNOYING FLIES... Very Difficult to Enjoy the Food....
i booked sunset tour via klook too, but this is much better. For those with 2 nights in Uluru, my recommendation is to book stars glazing for first night and this trip for day 2. Enjoy.
Getting to Uluru from Alice Springs is a long journey in itself. Try to experience the uncanny workmanship of nature in the sparsely populated Australian desert, and enjoy the rich Aboriginal mythology shared by the tour guide. It will definitely make your tired mind and body feel more fulfilled~
Tour was fun and informative and packed in many spots within the day. Breakfast provided at a pit stop was yummy. Highlight was the BBQ at the end of the day in full view of Uluru in the sunset. Tip: Bring along cash if you want to buy the Aboriginal art work from the local artists.
This tour is really great and I'm glad I got this tour for my family to enjoy Uluru. We had a blast! what an experience.Highly reccomended.
Hotel pickup was very convenient, and it was a rich and fulfilling trip! The barbecue and Uluru sunset were the perfect ending! I loved it so much! I really enjoyed it.
A great way to see Uluru and kata Tjuta from Alice Springs on a luxury coach. Very friendly and professional guides and a wonderful experience. The only feedback I’d give is a little more time is needed at kata Tjuta to complete the walk as we found ourselves having to turn back and rush to get back to the bus on time.
The confirmation before the activity, the introduction of the tour guide on the day, etc. are all great. The most special thing is that you must experience the outdoor barbecue and Uluru sunset.
