Tour Itinerary: Budget 2 Day Uluru & Kings Canyon Package
Day 1 – Operated by Emu Run
Our professional tour guides show you the real outback they love
and enjoy so much.
We collect you from outside your Alice Springs accommodation at
approximately 6am and head to our first stop at Erldunda (home of
the Emu) for a buffet breakfast.
If you choose to start your tour from Ayers Rock Resort, we collect
you from Outback Pioneer Hotel at approx 11:45am.
We then provide you with a freshly made packed lunch to eat on the
drive to the World Heritage listed Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park.
Kata Tjuta
We travel to Kata Tjuta (Olgas) for the first walk of the day into
Walpa Gorge. Embrace the domes of Kata Tjuta on your first walk
of the day, while taking in the views of the open plains on the
return walk.
Aboriginal Cultural Centre
We then visit the Aboriginal Cultural Centre where you will have
time to learn about the local Pitjantjatjara people and buy some
souvenirs. The Cultural Centre was built with 90,000 mud bricks
with the help of the local Anangu people. It is built on a sacred
site and has very special meaning to the local Anangu people.
Uluru – Mala Walk
We then head to the base of Uluru (Ayers Rock), which is next to
the entrance to the Uluru climb. From here one of the two guides
will take you on a guided Mala Walk. The Mala Walk follows the north-west
side of Uluru, where there are many fine examples of Anangu rock
art, and you can experience the wonder of the sheer vertical walls.
The guide will tell dreamtime stories of the Anangu People.
Uluru – Mutitjulu Waterhole
We drive from the front of Uluru around to the Kuniya car park,
which is at the back of Uluru. From here we start our second Uluru
guided walk to the Mutitjulu Waterhole. The guide will take you
along a short track to the Mutitjulu Waterhole – home of an ancestral
water snake called Wanampi. The guide will share stories of local
traditions and explain how the Anangu people traditionally used
the waterhole for hunting. The caves containing rock art were used
in the past by Anangu still alive today.
The Sunset BBQ
The scene has been set, the highlight of the day, the breathtaking
Uluru sunset with a glass of bubbly and a delicious Aussie BBQ.
A spectacular day never to be forgotten. After the sunset BBQ, you
will be dropped off at the Outback Pioneer Lodge where you will
spend the evening in a 4 share dorm room.
Day 2 – Operated by AAT Kings
AAT Kings pick you up from Outback Pioneer at approximately 4am
(Oct-Mar) or 5am (Apr-Sep).
Welcome to Kings Canyon
You’ll get a sense of the remoteness of outback Australia as you
travel to Kings Creek Station. Watch as the local wildlife wakes
for the day – dromedary camels, kangaroos, brumbies and dingoes.
Kings Creek Station
This cattle and camel station covers 1,800 square kilometres. Relax
in the café where you’ll be treated to a cooked breakfast. Their
coffee is said to be the best in the Territory!
Kings Canyon
Located in the heart of Watarrka National Park, Kings Canyon lies
in an ancient Australian landscape that is sacred ground for the
Ulpanyali and Lilla people.
Rim Walk
The six kilometre Rim Walk is a once in a lifetime experience. Climb
up a 100 metre cliff face and walk around the rim of the canyon.
Marvel at impressive views of sandstone walls, grottos, chasms and
cliffs.
The Garden of Eden
Deep down between sandstone cliffs, is the Garden of Eden – a true
oasis. Here is a natural spring waterhole surrounded by local and
exotic plants and trees such as gums, bonsai looking trees and enormous
prehistoric ferns, creating a truly unique landscape.
Creek Bed Walk
The Creek Bed Walk is ideal if you’re interested in something more
relaxing. After leisurely taking in the sights, set off on a two
kilometre stroll along the creek bed that leads to views of the
impressive canyon rim.
Kings Canyon Resort
Now we’re off to Kings Canyon Resort – an oasis in the outback!
Treat yourself to lunch (own expense). To see Kings Canyon from
above, take an optional scenic helicopter flight (creek bed walkers
only), or bring your swimmers if you’d like to take a dip in the
resort’s pool.
Scenic Return Journey
Enjoy amazing outback scenery as we head back to Alice Springs.
AAT Kings then drop you at your accommodation in Alice Springs at
approximately 7:30pm, or Ayers Rock finishes are at approx 5:30pm.
