Key lesson You can’t rely on a valid ticket issued for a SEIT tour. The tour may be already full and you will still receive a ticket which SEIT will then ignore. This behaviour is like the recent QANTAS Airways scandal when QANTAS engaged in false, misleading and deceptive conduct, by advertising tickets for more than 8,000 flights that it had already cancelled but not removed from sale. My experience I booked a month in advance the SEIT Kata Tjuta Small Group Tour at Uluru and received a valid ticket. I relied on my valid ticket and incurred costs to stay overnight at the Desert Gardens Hotel in anticipation of the tour starting at 5.45am the next morning. SEIT did not honour the ticket. I was left waiting at Desert Gardens reception for 60 minutes after getting up at 4.30am. Small processes You are much better going with one of the big tour groups like AAT Kings that have more robust processes. Process failures by SEIT: 1.When my tour didn’t arrive at 5.45am the Desert gardens reception didn’t have an out of hours contact number for SEIT. The office at Uluru doesn’t open until 9am. 2.In the lead up to my tour I tried to contact SEIT twice – a month before the tour (no response) and the day before the tour (only responded after the tour). So having a valid ticket and proactively contacting SEIT beforehand is still no guarantee they will turn up. 3. As mentioned above, I was issued a valid ticket for a tour that was already full. Small heart I had to wait until 9am on the day for the SEIT Offices to open. By that stage the tour had already been underway for 3 hours (the tour finished at 10.45am). Their approach to my complaint seemed a ‘legal liability’ approach rather than a person centric approach. They offered at 9.30am to rush me out to Kata Tjuta eventhough that would have resulted in approximately 1.5 hours travel time (it’s about 40 minutes one way to Kata Tjuta from the resort). I would have literally stood at Kata Tjuta for 5 minutes before having to return to catch my plane. But for them that probably meant they could have claimed they had no need to give me a refund! I declined their offer to drive to Kata Tjuta. So far I have not received a refund or any offer of compensation for the day I lost relying on a valid ticket. Responses to this post Be wary about any responses to this review. This is a truthful account of my experience. Responses may be from people with a vested interest – SEIT employees etc. I have never complained about anything in my life and feel reluctant to do so. Yet SEIT’s conduct was so poor I feel compelled to warn others.

Actually did 2 tours with this company, this sunrise tour plus evening sunset tour of Ulara. Both were very good with knowledgeable and experienced guides. Would highly recommend this company for their small group tours vs. large bus tours.

The hike to the Kata Tjuta is marvelous. We enjoy it very much. It would be much better if the food for breakfast could be improved a bit.

Very scenic sunrise, a bit too "herded" for my liking, with many groups vying for best position on the, way too small, tourist sunrise lookout platform. Nice breakfast, walk n talk about Kata Tjuta. Overall an effortless tourist trip/trap with spectacular views.

Steph_R

The sunrise was gorgeous as it came up beside Uluru and then reflected beautifully on Kata Tjuta. We enjoyed a good breakfast of Muesli, cups of fruit, toasted English muffins and raisin bread. There was tea, coffee and hot chocolate, as well as juice to drink. The guides were informative and friendly. They added personal stories to make the information that much more interesting. This was a fabulous way to spend a morning in Yulara!

The tour was excellent only because Hayley our tour guide made it so. Excellent knowledge of the area and its history, a great education. The Walpa Gorge was spectacular, the sunrise awesome and a good breakfast . Would definitely recommend this tour and the tour company.

Caught sunrise at Kata Tjuṯa. Tour was well organized and informative. Ben, our tour leader for this trip with SEIT was full of information about the land and the history of Kata Tjuṯa. Hike to the gorge was easy with a slight incline.

Saffy4151

Sunrise in Central Australia and a very inspirational, informative and respectful walk in Waḻpa Gorge. Thank you to Andrea for guiding me through history.

This is worth getting up early for. Michael was our primary guide. Marianna was a novice - we were her 1st group after orientation. They make a fabulous team. They picked us up so need for a rental car. Kata Tjuta is within the National Park along with Uluru. Michael & Marianna explained the geology and geography of the place. We came to understand the cultural & spiritual significance of these rock formations. The sunrise over Uluru was spectacular. We had a delicious breakfast before heading out for a hike to Wolpa Gorge. Get your walking sticks & head out for a great hike & an outstanding morning.
