Camel Tours & Experiences
Beyond the walks — ride a camel across the dunes at sunrise or sunset, dine under the desert stars, or take a scenic flight, all with respect for Anangu Country.
Camel Tours & Desert Experiences
There is more to Uluru than the walks and the viewing areas. Riding a camel across the red dunes at sunrise or sunset, with the great rock glowing on the horizon, is one of the desert’s most memorable experiences — slow, quiet and cinematic. Add dinner under a blaze of stars at a Sounds of Silence feast, or take to the air on a scenic helicopter flight for a view of Uluru and Kata Tjuta few ever see. All of it, always, enjoyed with respect for the Anangu and their Country.
