What people love about Uluru / Ayers Rock Tours for Seniors
- 3 Day Uluru Kata-Tjuta Kings Canyon (Camping) - From Alice Springs
Although it might be a crazy decision to go to the desert in summer (Feb is tooooo hot), I still think overall the tour was great - beautiful scenery, captivating aboriginal culture, knowledgeable guide (thanks Michy, he did driving, cooking, leading the hikings, and looking after everyone). As a Chinese, the food was not that tasty to me but ok enough. The hikings were a bit challenging but my daughter said she enjoyed them. The only thing I disliked was having to get up at 4:00am in the morning, but understood that's to see sunrise and do the hiking as early as possibly.
