Alice Springs to Uluru (Ayers Rock) Coach Transfer

The coach was comfortable. If you're a disabled traveller like me, though, check ahead whether the rest stops have accessible toilets. Unfortunately, the toilet on the bus wasn't working.

The coach was comfortable and the driver was very friendly and knowledgable. I didn't realise the coach transfer and the day tours were combined together on the same bus, though in retrospect perhaps that should have been obvious and I fault myself for not checking. If you're just wanting the coach transfer, by aware you'll be getting a knowledgable but loud tour talk parts of the way down. If that sounds appealing, by all means, you'll love it. If you were after a quiet ride or wanted to listen to an audiobook like I did, perhaps consider renting a car instead. Naturally the tour talk is over the loudspeaker, and the volume is up pretty high, probably because the average person just doing a day trip rather than wanting to experience Uluru over several days is pretty senior and possibly hard of hearing.

I have mobility issues and had to do extensive research to ensure that I was able to undertake this trip. Some of the competitors made it very plain that I was unlikely to be able to travel with them without being a burden. Emu Run Experience were extremely helpful and put my mind at rest. Consequently it was a great trip with enough breaks to be able to give us room to move around and see some Aussie icons, as well as arrival at Yulara with coach transfer to my hotel which I was not expecting. Sheldon was very friendly and informative with the anecdotes and history he was able to share with us. While I do not expect to be back in the region any time soon, I would highly recommend Emu Run - particularly if you have any concerns, they will tell it to you like it is.
