The red centre showcases a night sky like nowhere else on the planet. Stargazing here is supreme with exceptional clarity allowing diners to spot constellations, the Milky Way, planets, and galaxies. Each table has a resident ‘star talker’ who will take you on a tour of the spectacular night sky, telling stories from the vast expanse above and breathing even more magic into the evening.
Be sure to choose the Sounds of Silence Dinner when you visit Uluru, and perhaps consider combining it with the Field of Light, a phenomenal art installation that pays homage to the wildflowers and ancient landscape of Uluru Kata Tjuta National Park.
Dinner is sure to ignite the taste buds with an authentic array of bush tucker-inspired delicacies on offer including barramundi, kangaroo, emu, and crocodile. Accompanied by bush salads and classic desserts and complemented by some of Australia's finest wines, this is one of Australia’s premier dining experiences.
The Sounds of Silence dinner lasts approximately four hours, with the tour departing one hour before sunset.
The evening includes return transfers, canapes, a three-course buffet, a didgeridoo performance, and a guided tour of the night sky.
