Ayers Rock Campground is the ultimate destination for roadtrippers, campers, and caravanners to experience the magic of Uluru like never before - by offering the freedom of outback camping and caravanning together with the comfort of full resort amenities. And it's just been voted Jayco's 'Greatest Escape' for couples according to a national poll.
Located 20km from the iconic monolith and part of the famous Red Centre Way driving route, Ayers Rock Campground offers the ultimate 2024 Uluru experience for savvy travellers. To celebrate the new year, travellers can stay four or nights or more and save 30% when they book before 29 February 2024.*
Matt Cameron-Smith, CEO of Voyages, says: "We keep hearing from campers and caravanners that they wish they'd booked a longer stay at Ayers Rock Campground - they don't realise how much there is to do until they arrive. It's a camping holiday that gives you the best of both worlds, perfectly blending freedom with comfort in the spiritual heart of Australia - Uluru."
