Uluru from above! Just do it. It's fun!
Don_S, May 2024
Tim, our pilot, picked us up on time at Sails In The Desert at 2.30pm, drove us to the airport, and gave us an awesome 20 minute scenic ride around Uluru and the surrounding areas. Tim's commentary was informative, fun, and he is bloody good at his job! It was a smooth flight, and after walking 12km on the Base Walk only hours before, it was great seeing where we had just been from above. Tim dropped us back to our accommodation after the flight, and he's a great ambassador for the company. Highly recommended. Just do it! 10/10.

Unforgettable experience!
Lochlann_A, Mar 2024
Really glad we booked this experience. Our pilot picked us up from our resort and took us to the airport. He put us at ease by explaining everything and seemed very professional. The views of Uluru from the air were just spectacular, a perfect round off to our trip to the outback. (Word of warning, it was quite bumpy due to the thermals, but perfectly safe)
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Thank you for flying with us Lochlan! Early morning or late afternoon departures are best to generally avoid thermals.
Seeing the Rock from the air and being able to get so much closer.
Bev_M, Feb 2024
Seeing the Rock from the air and being able to get so much closer. It was a new experience going up in a light aircraft but the pilot was confident and gave us many interesting facts about the area.

Great Blast over the rock
JasonBurns_B, Feb 2024
Great half day excursion with Captain Eve and her blast over the rock. We were promptly picked up and driven to a small airfield by the main airport, which didn’t take more than about 10 minutes. The plane was a typical plane used for these type of tours and was expertly piloted by Eve herself It was only a 30 minute flight, but this was more than enough to take us to see both sides of the rock (in both directions )so you had a perfect view, No matter what side of the plane you sat on. Once finished, Eve took us back to our hotel And the whole trip didn’t take more than an hour and a half. Fantastic service and value and would highly recommend for a perfect view over the rock.

Thank you for your kind words Jason!

Very nice and beautiful scenery
Venkatarao_I, Dec 2023
Very nice experience. Would love to do it again. I couldn’t give five stars because of the weather. It was burning 45 degrees outside. Couldn’t bear the heat. But once on the plane we had air coming and felt relief. The ride was vey nice and exciting as it was a small plane. The pilot was very friendly. They covered all the pretty sights of the Ayers Rock and vicinity. The rock and surrounding area were beautiful from the sky.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Thank you for your review. Great to hear you had a good experience on our flight. And yes it does get very hot here in Central Australia during summer! We recommend guests fly early mornings or late afternoons if they are concerned about the heat in summer.
You can see as many...
Clive_M, Dec 2023
You can see as many photos or video clips of Uluru as you like, but the scale and grandeur of the Rock as seen as a close up from the air, is breath taking. It is a must do experience. P.S. Pilot knowledge and commentary was excellent as well
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Hi Clive, Thank you for your review! We love flying around the amazing monuments we have in Central Australia just as much as you!
A must do experience whilst visiting Uluru!
