Day 2.
Uluru (Ayers Rock) Sunrise, Kata Tjuta (Olgas), Guided Mala Walk, Uluru Sunset Drinks

Rise early and enter Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Enjoy a cup of tea or coffee as you witness Uluru at sunrise and see the desert come to life. With the sun climbing in the morning sky, travel to the western section of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park to the immense 36 rock domes of Kata Tjuta, thought to have once been a single rock many times the size of Uluru. Enjoy a guided walk into Walpa (Olga) Gorge. Marvel at the sheer walls that flank you as you enter the gorge. Learn of the domes' formation and of the wildlife of the region. Some of the plants you will see here are so rare that they are only found among these rocky domes. Keep an eye out for petroglyphs (stone carvings) that can be found on the floor of the gorge. Return to your hotel before an afternoon visit to the Uluru-Kata Tjuta Cultural Centre and Maruku Arts and Craft Cooperative, dedicated to interpreting Anangu culture and law. Travel to the waterhole of Mutitjulu for a guided walk, viewing ancient cave paintings and learning about the Aboriginal legends of Kuniya Tjukurpa (Python Dreaming). Join the guided Mala Walk to learn the story of the Mala (Hare Wallaby) people who once lived at Uluru. See painted caves and learn of the region's geology and flora. As you tour the base of Uluru, visit Kantju Gorge, a waterhole and old hunting ground. Late in the day, watch the sunset over Uluru, admire the ever-changing colours of the monolith while the sun sinks below the horizon. Enjoy a complimentary glass of wine and canapes as the dusk deepens into night. Tonight perhaps enjoy the Uluru Aussie Barbecue (Additional charge. Contact Us for details).
