The tour fully lived up to our expectations, from start to finish. Very informative guide, transport all the way to the helicopter, it was very convenient and well arranged. Even though it was a short flight, we didn’t feel like anything was missing or cut short. Recommended.

The views of Anangu lands and Uluru from above are spectacular. Seeing them from the trails is one thing. From above you get a birds eye view with the expanse of the Outback surrounding. Thanks to the excellent and skilled pilot and crew who made the time very memorable. The landing, buttered.

Easily the highlight of my Uluru trip! The views are absolutely stunning even if you’ve seen Uluru and Kata Tjuṯa before. The flight itself was very smooth and felt a lot longer than 15 minutes. You definitely get your money’s worth! :)
