Uluru Travel Blogs

We, my travelmate Wilma and I, made plans together to see a lot of Australia. The country is so big that we decided to see only a few parts of it. We started in Hong Kong (stop-over), Saw Darwin, Uluru, Cape york to Cairns, Great barrier reef and drove along the coast to Brisbane.

Our second day in the Northern Territory was also spent at Uluru. The sunrise was beautiful. We sat next to each other with hot milo and biscuits, enjoying the atmosphere and each other's company, as Uluru slowly changed to a vivid red colour with the change in light. After the sunrise we …

We left quite early on this trip as we wanted to make the most of our next accommodation. To stay at the resort of Yulara near Uluru (Ayers Rock) isn’t cheap, the room we had cost just over $450, but when you have a 500 kilometre journey there it’s not like you have much of a choice but to …

Uluru holds deep Aboriginal significance to the Anangu people, and many stories are told as you wander around the base. You can also learn about Ayers Rock at the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park Cultural Centre. Anangu Tours is also based here, and can take you on numerous tours around the base, alt…

Early start as we boarded our new Adventure Tour bus with a new mix of people including 2 tour guides.this time...one a trainee and the other the trainer.. Thought we would be well looked after. Lots of driving as Yulara (the "town" at Ayers Rock/Uluru) is over 500 kms from Alice Springs. Many…

At first I didn't intend to walk around Uluru. The bus stoped at the park at the west of Uluru so the light was not so nice for photography. I just tried to find the right place for the nice photo, so I started to walk and walked and walked. I had no idea how far I had walked, it seemed like I was…

Traveled through Australia for 5 1/2 months, 1st month with a friend. After that on my own.

it really is that big. no, actually, it's huge. although it's only ten k's to walk around it, it's very far in the blistering heat. but it's impressive. one huge rock rusting away out in the desert. and of course lots of tourists and even more flies. but oh well. without the tourists there wouldn't…

Road trip throughout Tasmania, Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales, and the Northern Territory. No maps, no bookings, no plans...

After our usual leisurely breakfast we headed off for a day of visiting both Uluru and Kata Tjuta (the Olga’s).   First up would be a climb of Uluru, followed by a walk around it’s base. Well that was at least the plan until we reached the shop at the campsite, where Wendy was informed t…

Of the entire holiday, this was the day we had to get up the earliest: 5:00am! It was for the Uluru sunrise that morning, so with a sleepy head we got up and got dressed and ready for the 6:00am leave to the sunrise watching area. We had bought breakfast earlier that night, as all the stores on the…
