About This Experience

This is the simplest way to see Uluru at sunset with transport sorted. You leave the resort in the late afternoon by air-conditioned coach, and your driver/guide gives commentary on the drive as Uluru comes into view.

At the sunset viewing area you get sparkling wine and a cheeseboard with nibbles. You can stay by the coach or walk around the viewing area to find your own spot to watch the light change on the rock, which rises 348 m above the plain.

The color shifts gradually, so the operator suggests taking a photo every few minutes. Your guide will also take a picture of you with Uluru behind.

After sunset the coach heads straight back to the resort, in time for a dinner booking. The national park pass is extra: adults pay A$38 for 3 days and under-18s enter free.

Good to Know & Caveats

No real walking is needed; you can stay near the coach or stroll around the viewing area.
Coaches watch from the Uluru bus sunset viewing area, as the car sunset area is for cars only.
Departure is late afternoon and moves with the sunset time through the year.
Cloud or rain can mute the color change; the tour is a sunset outing, so the light is down to the weather on the day.
Buy your park pass online before the tour; it is required and not part of the price.

Meeting Point

Pickup and drop-off at your accommodation in Ayers Rock Resort, Yulara.

Andy is the bestest guide who turned our frowns upside down. With torrential rain, we were surprised AAT did not cancel the tour ( when e everyone else had). From 25 people in group we were only 4 women & we continued with our not-to -sunset tour. Andy saw our dissatisfaction and since was informed the rock was full with waterfall, initiated to take us there and we all jumped. It turned out to be magical evening past that point, rainbow, waterfalls . Incredible effort by Andy to save the day. 100 stars

Sunset at Uluru is simply amazing (if a sunny day). Wine (sparkling and regular) and nibbles were plentiful. Guides and team at the site were wonderfully friendly. I could recommend this.
