On this tour guests move to a quiet gorge at the base of the great monolith for a very personal, very dramatic view of sunset from 'within' Uluru. During sunset, Uluru changes dramatically and the size and scale of the formation is best gauged from a close up perspective. Another spectacular tour in the core program is the Kata Tjuta Sunrise tour where guests watch the sunrise from a special location before commencing the famous Valley of the Winds walk through the majestic domes and unparalleled scenery of Kata Tjuta.
