With plenty of attention to detail when it comes to your comfort in the harsh environment, the tours and trips are scheduled in the early morning or at sunset and are jam-packed with interesting snippets and local cultural stories to make you feel like you’ve actually learnt a thing or two by the time you depart.

The tents themselves are totally air-conditioned with awesome uninterrupted views of Uluru, and 5-star amenities which make you feel right at home from the get-go.
