Enjoyable and casual small group. Great guide and lovely experience. Slightly spoilt by 2 very verbal toddlers who kept interrupting.
CarlEllis, Apr 2026
Absolutely amazing trip. Mateo and Andrea were very informative and interesting, very friendly too. I would highly recommend it.
SIVARAJAH_J, Apr 2026
Fantastic guide explained the aboriginal stories and believes and took us to the key places and explained so well. Changing colour of the Rock in sunrise was amazing. Breakfast was very ordinary. We loved the early morning cool weather.and the walks
Andrew_M, Mar 2026
Nice up close view of Uluru during and just after sunrise, with a short walk included right up to the rock.
Guides shared information about the area, Uluru, and the local people's throughout the tour.
Small group size is a plus.
Breakfast was very simple: coffee, juice, banana bread, fruit cups, and cereal ... so don't expect a lavish spread.
Susie_F, Mar 2026
This is a great tour to do. Andy & Celia were great guides and very knowledgeable.
You get served a light breakfast which consisted of muesli, cornflakes, banana bread, fruit pots, juice, tea and coffee.
After watching the sunrise you have a short walk to the only watering hole then a bus tour around the rock.

The SEIT tours company is used for the Uluru Highlights sunrise and breakfast. The sunrise was nice but we were closer to Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) than Uluru (Ayres Rock). Breakfast was good. We were escorted to the Mutitjulu Waterhole via Kata Tjuta, this is a long 1 hour walk over rough terrain rocks and gravel and can be slippery. No stories of Liru (venomous snake) and Kuniya (woma python) were conducted by the guides. Our last part of the tour was that SEIT Tours would drive around the base of Uluru (Ayres Rock), THIS DID NOT HAPPEN.
So where were the Uluru Highlights on this tour other than the sunrise.
Overall the driver was excellent and the guide was in training but he did OK.
An overpriced tour that did provide what they said they would in our itinerary. So SEIT tours are ripping off the tourists.

This was a lovely experience, a great way to see the stunning Uluru. Rachel, our guide was so informative sharing so much culture and traditions with us, even some beautiful music. I learned so much and would highly recommend. The breakfast was also delirious.

Seeing Uluru at sunrise was just one part of the experience. Later as we drove to different areas, our guide brought various aspects of the Creation Story to life. The watering hole was a very interesting spot.
Nancy_K, Feb 2026
Knowledgeable guides-Andy was great. Easy walk. Watch the weather report and bring a raincoat if rain is possible and wear waterproof shoes. Breakfast is very light, with limited choices. If rain is predicted the tour company needs to provide towels.
Since our walk was in the rain we saw beautiful waterfalls that only occur when it rains and we waded through calls deep water. All part of the experience.
Arlene_W, Feb 2026
Exceptional! Well worth rising early & closer to Uluru than we thought possible.
Paul, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable, agreeably passionate about respecting the indigenous culture, & personable. Matteus, a new guide, easily offered assistance and commentary.
The breakfast was better than many a buffet, coffee great, congenial small group gathered for sunrise Uluru viewing. Best part, the walk to the waterhole!!!
Laurie_Z, Feb 2026
It was a great tour. Graham was fabulous .Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and we didn't get a sunrise.
skkchui, Feb 2026
The Morning pickup was on time. The Guide, Andy, also the driver was very friendly, helpful and communicative during the trip to the Rock. We were overwhelmed by the natural beauty, and the colour changing of the Rock.
In our walking tour around the sacred sites, Andy provided us with interesting details of the historical site, which had deeply captured our attentions, and connection with the ancient culture.
Amy_J, Jan 2026
A great early start to beat the heat! The constantly changing colours of Uluru as the sun rose was beautiful 🤩
The knowledge learned from our very informative guide helped us appreciate and respect the area more than if we just walked around ourselves.
Deborah_K, Dec 2025
Small group of people. Nice mini bus. Reliable prompt pick up. Knowledgeable pleasant guide. Early start, but worth the timings. Although we really enjoyed the tour, we were a little disappointed as the sun did not rise over Uluru. It did infact rise from the East which was behind us. The breakfast was a little disappointment with not much to choose from. No alternative pastries only banana bread, cereal or peaches in plastic cartons. I did expect more for breakfast especially for the costs involved and the tour was very short. There was no rush from the guide however it was a very short tour. It would have been nice to stop further along for more photos.
Julianne_B, Dec 2025
Was a bit disappointed that breakfast was tea or coffee and a piece of banana cake. I was expecting a Bbq breakfast from what I had read. We were picked up at 4.40am. But the rock was quite spectacular.
Alexandra_S, Nov 2025
Fantastic experience. Professional guide and loved the small group experience. Perfect tour if you want to do a short 3 hour small group tour.
Laura_M, Oct 2025
Our guide, Dimitri, was 5*. I gave the tour a 4* because I think there could be more content to this tour. I was expecting far more stories about the indigenous people. Also was looking for a longer more contemplative walk around Uluru. “Picnic Breakfast” is really just a bag of muesli which for me is ok as I do not eat much in the AM.
Jodie_S, Oct 2025
Thee experience was outstanding . The breakfast was great. Our tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable
Dianne_O, Oct 2025
Well worth the early morning. Spectacular scenery, easy walk nice breakfast and lots of information.
Geralyn_D, Sep 2025
This was a beautiful trip to Uluru, our guide Graham was fabulous, very friendly and knowledgeable. I would have give 5 stars but we missed the early sunrise due to delays (apparently vehicle keys were missing, some passengers didn’t have their park passes and had to deal with that, traffic jam at the park entrance gate due to another car in the wrong lane) but Graham did his best to make up time, set up a nice breakfast and we were there in time to see the color changes. The walk to the waterhole was an added treat as well as the ride around the base. I would definitely do this again.
Micaela_P, Sep 2025
I absolutely loved it—and my friend did too! We totally recommend it! We did the tour with Flo and she was amazing. She shared all the coolest stories about Uluru and took us to the best spots for views.
David_P, Sep 2025
Great guide, lots to see, good food, tons of informative information provided by host and multiple stops and views of the rock.
RON_W, Sep 2025
We were unsure what to expect and then we met Lucy our tour guide. Her knowledge of the area and local people was top grade, she was friendly, knowledgeable and so very funny. Even though we were all seperate booking she created a group of people who got to know each other. Best tour guide I have ever had. Highly recommend.
Stephen_M, Sep 2025
Great short tour. Lovely guide (not grating).
The breakfast is not really a breakfast, it’s a snack served at breakfast time.
Arwel_W, Jul 2025
Great guide (Lucia) who was very informative, having a small group was very nice. Thoroughly recommend.
Deborah_D, Jul 2025
Our tour host Jackie was fabulous!
Breakfast was catered for gluten and lactose intolerances. Much appreciated.
Best trip to see Uluru at sunrise and for those who don't like to walk much and who are short on time.
We liked that it was s small van with max 7 people.
Pat_R, Jun 2025
Can thoroughly recommend this tour.
Peter our guide was great!
Very informative and fun!
Having breakfast overlooking the rock as it changed colour was spectacular!
Pieris_A, Mar 2025
Great views of sunrise and close up to Uluru without having to walk the whole base .
Our guide Tess was very knowledgeable and helpful. The breakfast was perfect for the early start. Highly recommended.
