Great review. My 12 year old grandchild and I stayed at The Outback Lodge for 4 days - had our own dorm room - fantastic swimming pool, camp kitchen and shared amenities block a few steps away. Outback Pub was handy all nights - the kids loved playing Pool - fish n chips $10 each - adults loved beer schooner. Made use of IGA for supplies. We made use of the hop on and off bus 3 times and free shuttle connecting to everywhere within Ayers Rock Resort - met the local aboriginal community painting under the trees in Town Square and purchased a lovely $50 painting - arvo sunset trip to The Olgas to viewing platforms and walk through the middle to Walpa Gorge and a mid morning trip to the rock for free ranger led walk. Next time we'll do a specialised day tour with the aboriginals - dig for witchity grubs, painting in bark and camp fire.
@@nanniecath528 Hi Cath, What a fantastic stay you had! I loved that you went there with your 12 year old grandchild and did sooooo many fun things - such a memorable experience for you both! Travelling with kids is wonderful and gives them so many great experiences. The Outback pub is great (I went there too for dinner) and IGA is super useful to get extra supplies. The painting you got must be beautiful. I love that you did sunset viewings and walks and explored the area. It really is a magical part of the world. Just like you, I plan to go there again! Thank you so much for such a detailed comment with so many ideas for things to do and insights for other people who are thinking of staying there. Also, thank you for subscribing - it really helps the channel to grt out there! Happy planning and travels!
It rained last time I was there recently during the night and for part of the morning but I haven't seen lightning storms - must be amazing! Thanks again for your comment.
In the summer months and get spectacular lightning ⚡️ storms in Uluru Ayers Rock and it is a typical summer weather of the dry desert climate and it is beautiful to watch when it rains and the gusty winds will blow during a storm ⛈️ and it fascinating and it can be dangerous. Lightning exceeds over hundred million volts of electricity and it is a nature’s high voltage and the extreme weather can hit with the extreme high temperatures hit in the Australian outback. Please be careful and be safe during a thunderstorm warning with flash floods and the cloud to ground lightning strikes. You need rain gear and umbrellas to protect from rain while watching the lightning flashes and hearing the thunder afterwards. It is a dry desert climate with less rain in the winter to spring months of Uluru Ayers Rock in the Northern Territory of Australia.🇦🇺
Thank you so much for your comment and for your in depth knowledge of Uluru, the surroundings and the extreme weather conditions in this spectacular part of the world. My viewers will really appreciate your comment.
Even summer gets the extreme weather events with the desert heat thunderstorms and the weather events can be dangerous and be safe to watch lightning and the rain falling on the ground and also hear the sound of thunder afterwards from the lightning strikes. The storms can be very severe in the central Australian desert and safe to watch it in Uluru or Ayers Rock in the Australia’s Northern Territory and be safe to watch extreme weather conditions at the Ayers Rock Resort and please be careful during storms hit in the southern part of Northern Territory and lightning is one of most powerful forces of nature and it is nature’s high voltage and the strong gusty winds pick up during thunderstorms and the heavy downpours of rain falling in torrents causes flash floods in the desert. You be prepared for the extreme weather events of the intense thunderstorms during the summer months of heavy rain and lightning and thunder and the straight line winds can blow everything down if it is not secure loose objects and please secure loose objects during storms hit the area of high temperatures and rain cools everything off in the summer. These storms can 😂 very dangerous and not safe to hit the roads with vehicles of traveling in the Australian outback.
Thanks for sharing such detailed information about this really beautiful part of the world. You are definitely correct that you need to be prepared especially in that part of the world. My next video is of my latest stay at Uluru (this time staying at the Desert Gardens Hotel). I'll link it below when it come out. Thanks again for your comment and for subscribing. Your comments will really help our viewers and community who are travelling there!
Hi , loved you video and the way you respected uluṟu and the hotel . just wondering where did you book the actual ride to the rock ? was it on a website or in person 😀 thanks
Hi Shannon, I absolutely adore this part of the world - such a special place. I'm glad it came through in the video. Both times I've been recently, we hired a car from the airport which meant that we could drive to each location. This pic was taken from the Sunset Viewing point of Uluru, located 10kms from inside the start of the Uluru Kata-Tjuta National park. It costs AUD$38 for a 3 day pass (this is the minimum pass you can purchase) so you can drive to the Sunset and sunrise viewing points, go to Uluru to do the walk as well as drive to Kata-Tjuta. I was actually there earlier this week and filmed another video, this time staying at Desert Gardens hotel and more of Uluru so stay tuned for that video! There are heaps of tours that you can do. You can contact Voyages directly as you can pre book tours if you don't have a car. Hope this information helps. Thanks for your comment and for subscribing!
On my bucket list always wondered what the facilities were like
Was always on my list as well - it's amazing! So glad I went.
Sails in the Desert is fantastic!
I'm definitely going again
