Small Group Uluru Kata Tjuta National Park Tour With BBQ Dinner

What your day looks like

Come and join your guide to explore the most profound and culturally significant monolith in Australia. Departing the resort, the tour will travel through the landscapes to the entrance of the Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park. From this point, it is only a matter of minutes before the spectre of Uluru rises from the sand dunes to demonstrate its enormity and presence in this country. Our first stop allows you a photographic opportunity of this amazing icon. With Uluru looming in front of you, you journey toward the base. As you drive around the base, your guide will take you to the entrance of Mutitjulu Waterhole, a semi-permanent watercourse nestled in the contours of Uluru. Here you will learn the Creation stories of Liru (venomous snake) and Kuniya (woma python), as well as other stories associated with prominent Tjukurpa (Creation) narratives. You will see the rock art of the Anangu people and learn how Uluru was, and still is, a significant location for teaching young Aboriginal people. We then adjourn to the new Talinguru Nyakunytjaku viewing area, where you will observe an uninterrupted view of Uluru with Kata Tjuta in the background as the sun sets. Revel in the peace of the desert as you enjoy a chilled sparkling wine. After sunset, an SEIT Guide will transfer you to the AAT Kings’ exclusive barbecue site. The site is within Uluru National Park, set amongst red sand dunes and desert oak trees, providing a peaceful desert setting. The site is located far enough away from the resort lights to provide a clear view of the stars in the southern sky (weather permitting). Once at the site, you will enjoy a variety of Australian meats and salads, accompanied by a glass of wine, beer, or orange juice (menus are subject to change). After dinner, tea, coffee, and dessert will be served. Your guide will then conduct a tour of the night sky, describing and pointing out some of the visible constellations with the assistance of a high-beam spotlight (weather permitting). The guide will also explain some Aboriginal stories that relate to the stars before you return to Ayers Rock Resort. **Special dietary requests must be advised before 2 pm on the day of joining the tour.
