Itinerary At the Sounds of Silence experience you can dine under the canopy of the desert night, while your very own storyteller shares the tales of humanity as told in the stars.
Entered into the Australian Tourism Hall of Fame, Sounds of Silence offers the best of the Red Centre distilled into four magical hours. An unforgettable evening, eating beautifully prepared food under the sparkling outback sky.
Your journey begins on a lone sand dune. A meandering path takes you to an uninterrupted, three hundred and sixty degree view of this vast landscape. In front of you is the fabled Uluru; behind you are the domes of Kata Tjuta and, possibly the most spectacular sunset you have ever seen. Here you enjoy sparkling wine and a selection of delectable canapés.
As the sun sets in a blaze of reds and oranges, and well into the starlit night, you feast on a gourmet barbecue buffet of authentic Australian delicacies including barramundi, kangaroo, emu, crocodile, bush salads and classic desserts, complemented by some of Australia's finest wines.
Attention then turns to some of the world's best stargazing, as our resident astronomer takes you on an unforgettable tour of the spectacular southern night sky. As you wind down after a delicious dinner, you are offered a choice of tea, coffee or port. In winter, guests gather around a campfire to savour a special treat of hot mulled wine.
We cannot recommend the Sounds of Silence experience highly enough, and we certainly encourage every visitor who comes to Voyages Ayers Rock Resort to join us for this unique event.

I had been told not to miss "Sounds of Silence" and this was the best advice I had. The evening was sensational - food fantastic, great service, galaxy talk fun and informative. We were lucky to have such a clear night so we were able to see all the stars after seeing the sunset over Uluru. A night to remember.

Wonderfully peaceful experience! Memorable. Shared the night with some interesting people from all walks of life. Well worth it. Captivating astronomy talk and excited to see the planets through telescopes. Crystal clear sky!
