With 170 different animal species calling Uluru home, our experienced guides will spot them for you along your journey. Keep an eye out for the Thorny Devil, it’s a small dragon covered in densely packed spikes. It walks with an unusual rocking motion which can confuse the birds that prey on them.
"Our tour of just 10 was perfect for us. Ben, our guide was really interesting- knowledgeable and passionate about the history, culture and environment. We had a perfect spot to see the sunrise and enjoy a picnic breakfast and then got up close to Uluru, visiting the waterhole, a cave with paintings and hearing a couple of `stories`. Would definitely recommend."
