We had a amazing trip mostly because of our totally awesome guide Robert. I ve never seen anyone put as much effort attention and passion into his work.
His detail of the desert and it s history was accurate, funny and Insightful( not bad for a German:)
Robert even brought me my hat to me at dinner after i left it in the bus after the tour.
Highly recommend these guys for a trip. I d give them six stars if I could !
We enjoyed our tour a lot. We did camping with camp fire and wild cooking. The tour guide Ewel is terrific, professional, fun and enthusiastic. This is an amazing experience. Definitely recommend it.
I had an amazing experience thanks to The Rock Tour.
The guide Donk was always fun, caring and willing to help.
He did a really good job to give us better experience in many ways.
I won t forget this trip in my life, majestic places with nice people.
If the places we visited on this tour weren't so incredible, this score would have been lower due to our tour guide Andrew. He treated our group like we were dumb tourists, didn't get to know any of our names and acted like a drill sergeant for most of the 3 days. Despite his attitude, what we saw and experienced was absolutely wonderful and I would recommend this trip highly for the stunning scenery and the experience of sleeping in swags under the stars.
I had a great time on my 4-day Uluru Tour (Ayers Rock to Ayers Rock) with Ken.
While I had to get used to the whole camping experience (the sleeping bags consist of a thin mattress with a rather stiff sack around it that loads of other people slept in before as well as everything being dusty), it was well worth it:
Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon were equally amazing. Ken gave us a lot of interesting background information.
We were 19 people on the 1st day (age 19-around 60), 12 up until noon on the 2nd day and only 10 for the rest of the tour and really bonded as a group which made the experience even nicer.
I can highly recommend this tour.
Just make sure to read the itinerary before you book as it is a camping (not a glamping ) trip, including the collection of fire wood for dinner on the 2nd day, lots of time on the bus (especially the 6 hour drive back to Ayers Rock from Alice Springs) and cleaning up after yourself (washing dishes and setting up your sleeping bag).
First thing you should do when booking this tour is ask how much extra driving and dropping off you will be doing. There are better places to start from on this Tour. I started it from Alice Springs and it is a lot of driving which is fine, but the extra driving is too much. If you are ok with the extra driving time you will be rewarded with a great experience. Our tour guide Donk (Matt) is worth six stars. Not only is he one of the hardest working guides out there, he made sure everything ran smoothly. Uluru, Kata Tjuta, and Kings Canyon were legendary. Camping under the stars was very special. I've never seen the Milky Way galaxy so clearly with my own eyes. I wish I could have spend a few more nights camping outside. Great tour, great guide, great price. This will be a highlight of my trip.
We had an amazing trip thanks to our awesome guide Donk! I ve never seen anyone put as much effort and passion into his work as a guide. He bent over backwards for the group: cooked for us, gave us snacks, told us amazing stories of every places we visited and looked after everyone! An amazing way to visit the outback!! I highly recommend this tour !
I had dreamt about this for my whole life, coming to Uluru and experience the Rock of rocks. I traveled over the whole world to come here, it would have been amazing if it wasn't for our super grumpy tour guide, it was really not fun. She did not say anything about what we saw and she seemed like not wanted to be there at all.
Luckily we had each other in the group and the beautiful scenery and landscape around us. Also, I have to say that the tour company has been good to deal with before the tour and after, they promised to talk to the guide, hopefully, no one else will have the same experience I had.
Had an amazing trip with Donk. Well organized and well paced, it was great to get done long hikes before the afternoon heat came in. Would definitely recommend!
