Read about spectacular Ayers Rock, Uluru and more amazing things to do in Alice Springs.

The beauty of Uluru

It’s hard to explain how beautiful Uluru is unless you’re standing in front of it (particularly at sunrise or sunset…with a bevvy in hand). This huge red rock really blows you away, particularly when you get a chance to understand the cultural significance of it and learn stories from the Indigenous Australians.

Most overland Alice Springs to Uluru tours will cover the chance to experience Uluru, in fact, the majority camp very close to this magical landmark so you can sit back, enjoy a glass of champagne and appreciate it’s magic in no rush!
