3 Day Uluru & Kings Canyon Tour from Alice Springs Itinerary

Day One (lunch – summer months only – & dinner)

Can you do Uluru in 3 days? Yes, your 3-Day Uluru Tour from Alice Springs starts with a sunrise departure into the heat of Australia’s Red Centre. After a fresh lunch, explore the hidden paths winding through the massive rocks at Kata Tjuta. This is one of the most exciting and mesmerising walks near Uluru, as you admire the wonder of the 36 steep rocks blushing in the sun. The sense of wilderness, the scrambling up and down cliffs and the wonderful flora edging the rocks is an experience not to be missed. From the heights of the lookouts, you can gaze out across the desert at the mirage of colours the outback has to offer and take some spectacular photographs to capture the moment.

The highlight of the evening will be the first time you witness the staggering sunset that melts over Uluru, with a glass of champagne and nibbles in hand. Uluru in the evening is an unforgettable experience, as you capture the flaming reds, soft strokes of lavender and burnt oranges erupting in the landscape around you. Finish a perfect day with dinner, campfire tales and a tranquil night of sleeping under the stars.

Day Two (breakfast, lunch & dinner)

The day will begin bright and early with breakfast and a sunrise viewing. After, you can spend the morning hiking around Uluru. Start your journey to the iconic Ayers Rock. At the base of the Uluru, you can watch the monolith change colours in the roiling sun and hear fabulous tales peppered with myth and magic from ancient Aboriginal Dreamtime stories. The Cultural Centre is the next place to explore and the perfect chance to immerse yourself in the splendour and simplicity of local life. Find out all about the old ways and ancient rituals, admire the locally inspired art and pick up beautiful handcrafted souvenirs to take back home.

In the evening, we will travel to our campsite near Kings Canyon. Here we will enjoy an outback dinner and share stories around the campfire whilst retiring for the evening with another incredible night camping under the stars.

Day Three (breakfast & lunch)

Day three begins with a hearty breakfast together as a group before camping up our campsite. Once refuelled we will take on the spectacular Kings Canyon Rim Walk. Nestled in the Watarrka National Park, Kings Canyon is a remarkable environment of rugged scenery and carved red cliffs that shelter the lush Garden Of Eden that sits in the gorge below. After lunch, we will have one final meal together before it’s time to make the journey back to Alice Springs.
