Kings Canyon rim walk and Uluru sunset viewing bring solo travelers together. This adventure suits independent travelers (ages 5+) seeking cultural insights at Simpsons Gap and Mutitjulu Waterhole. Small groups naturally bond in Territory's dramatic landscapes.

What people love about touring Australia Northern Territory solo
- 4 Day Kakadu & Katherine Gorge Cultural Experience (Accommodated)
Have just returned from 4 event packed days in Kakadu with our guide Jay Bichard from Autopia tours. I couldn't be more complimentary of the tour. We travelled lots of kms in the 4WD vehicle with a nice sized group of 9 travelers. The tour brochure accurately covers what you will see and do, so does not need to be replicated here. Tour Guide Jay was phenomenal - pleasant, engaging, energetic, organized, knowledgeable, and a good manager of the group. Its long, hard days being a tour guide like this, and we appreciated she was always bubbly smiling and informative. Hence we stayed on schedule to see all that we hoped to see. Accommodation in motels was fine and comfortable especially given the remoteness. Food was practical, tasty and adequate given where were travelling. You need to have a reasonable level of physical fitness to do some of the walks - especially into Jim Jim falls. However, all our group were able to reach the destinations. Very enjoyable, and I felt good value for money. Highly recommended as a reasonably good 'taster' of the Kakadu national park.
- 3 Day Uluru Kata-Tjuta Kings Canyon (Camping) - From Alice Springs
Really amazing experience with the 3 Day Red Centre Uluru Kings Canyon tour! Everything was extremely well organized, and our guide, Jordan, was incredible. His warmth, kindness and humour set a great tone for the group and made for an exceptional experience! Highly recommended!
- 3 Day Uluru Adventure
Our tour was much better than we expected. Very good experience with many highlights (drinking champagne while Uluru sunset, aboriginal guide experience, sleeping outside under stars, ...). Guides (Lea and Brad) have done a very good job: relaxed, personally, providing many facts and information. Thanks a lot!!
