Uluru & Outback Tours

The best way to experience Uluru is on a multi-day Red Centre tour that includes Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon. These tours allow you to see sunrise and sunset at Uluru, hike through Kata Tjuta’s Valley of the Winds, and complete the famous Kings Canyon Rim Walk.

If you’re unsure which tour suits your itinerary, contact our travel team and we can help you choose the best option.
