Good trip but unfortunately the journey to Uluru was quite long and also the front entry door sensor was faulty emitted a beeping sound half way through the journey.Tour guide was very knowledgeable and the Bus driver very professional.A lot flies around so please get a fly net.

Rhonda_S

A very comfortable coach ride, through picturesque country, with a world of interesting people onboard, to a destination rich in history and culture…. What better way to spend a day?

Gabriel_A

Sites were great but narration sucked. Ticket price did include Lunch, yet because of the change we did not get any money back.

This was an exceptional day, long but brilliant. Travel was comfortable on an air conditioned coach. I would have rated the day a 5, however our guide Dave was having a really bad day and unfortunately he let this affect this attitude toward some of the other guests, who he was very snappy with. It just made everything feel a bit awkward and was just a bit of a downer. I get it, people who are late and don’t listen, or follow instructions are super annoying, but that’s part of the job. To be fair, Dave had experienced a rough night with an attempted break in to his home. Lots of great knowledge shared by Dave though and sunset at Uluṟu really is something I’ll never forget. The included lunch was disgusting, soggy wraps which sat in direct sunlight in the esky with the lid open for 20 minutes before we got to them, however if I’m not mistaken, they are no longer including lunch from April onwards, and believe me this is a good thing. The day trip is a great option if you want to see the sights (Uluṟu, Kata Tjuta, and then back to Uluṟu for sunset BBQ) but don’t necessarily have the time or want to spend the $$$ staying for days.

A great day seeing and experiencing the phenomenal sites. The day was finished off with a delightful bbq dinner watching The Rock in all its glory at sunset. Yad our tour guide was very knowledgeable and a great guide. Charlie our bus driver from and back to Alice Springs was an excellent driver.

Uluru was beautiful, with Yad providing an excellent tour of the National Park. He’s hospitality was most welcome following an awful experience with the bus driver Dave. Dave had had a horrible evening before and took his frustrations out on the other travellers even screaming at a woman who asked if she could quickly run to the shop to get a drink. Whilst I really hope Dave is ok, his angry deminor had me questioning if I was actually an extra in the horror film “wolf creek” at times. I’d recommend this trip if you can guarantee you’ll get happy Dave and not angry Dave.

My wife and I went on the bus in Alice Springs at 7 am. On the way to Uluru, it was boring as the scenery was the same all the way. Toilet stop was unpleasant due to loads of flies around your face. I regretted choosing the tour. But from lunch time things were getting spectacular, unforgettable and even spiritual. The tour was well organised and BBQ was an excellent experience. The driver Dave was so kind and proud. He made a special trip to our unlisted accommodation at 2 am. These guys are professionals and it is 100% worth our money. Strongly recommend it.

Fascinating day in every way! Dave, our bus driver from Alice, was the best! Knowledgeable, funny, considerate of his guests-if you can get Dave, you are in for a great day! Well planned/organized. Toilet on the bus was out of order but stops along the way helped the situation. Yad, our tour guide for The Olga’s and Uluru, knew the culture and shared interesting stories as we explored the area. He was completely respectful of the Aboriginal culture. Very hot, very buggy-head nets are a must! Meal at the end at sunset was the perfect ending of a must trip in the Outback.

Barry_G

The good - amazing scenery, good food, knowledgeable guides. The bad - the flies (get a face net!), the long drive coming home in the dark, the taste of the water they provided, the range of drink options at dinner

Excellent trip in a comfortable bus with great driver and tour guide. Tour was culturally appropriate. Food and drink during bus trip was great and the sunset BBQ and drinks was fantastic.
