We took the 60 minutes flights on Lake Amadeus, Olgas and Uluru. It's definitely worth the price and gives you a nice view of the desert and the area. If you take a flight make sure Lake Amadeus is included. It's the most spectacular part, with all the salt formations, the camel tracks and the real camels crossing over.

We did the Cessna 172 (fixed wing aircraft) flight and it was excellent. Our pilot was very professional and gave us a great guided tour of both sights. The flight gave a unique perspective of both Uluru and the Olgas, and the great vastness around them. The Olgas are even more impressive from the air. A really nice way to... More

Do the Helicopter ride. It's expensive, but a real treat. This was my 4th time to Uluru and first time in the air. An awesome experience to see the entire area, the relationship of the 3 geographical structures in the area.

The flight we took was Lake Armedeus, Uluru and The Olgas. It was well worth every cent we paid and gave us a real sense of what we had been seeing on the ground. It put everything into place. Adesh was informative about the area and took the time to make sure we had seen everything there was to see... More

My wife and I had the pleasure of taking a to hour flight from Ayers Rock, flying over Uluru, the Olgas, Lake Armadeus and Kings Canyon. Our pilot picked us up from our resort on time and we drove five minutes to the airport. We had our own plane, a small but modern Cessna 172. After some formalities, we were... More

We flew Lake Amadeus / Kings Canyon / Kata Juta / Uluru, starting in the late afternoon and finishing with sunset at Kata Jjuta and Uluru. We were fortunate to have excellent flying conditions, and the whole experience was fantastic. It is costly, but excellent value, and choosing the fixed-wing Cessna over the helicopter gave us much more time in... More

Decided to splash out on a flight - chose a plane rather than a helicopter as it was a bit cheaper and gave more time in the air. We took the Uluru/Kata Tjuta combined flight and it was fantastic. As they were a bit quiet they recommended we took the flight at Sunset. Our pilot, Adesh, picked us up from... More

I opted to do the scenic flight rather than the full walk around Uluru. Never regretted the idea since up there, I got to see the magnificent aerial view of the Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Mt Conner in one line! As well, the huge Salk lake can be seen from the distant!

We splurged and flew over Ayers Rock and the Olgas - worth it to see how spectacular and grand they are from the air. You can see Ayers Rock when you fly out from the airport if you are on the right hand side of the plane.
