    at 7:10 the scenery is so damn majestic. It's funny how you say it was boring but the footage tells a story of the most insanely beautiful colours. I know it must be hard to fully appreciate it when flys are annoying the hell out of you.

    It is a desert and you don’t appreciate it . I love how empty Australia is . I think that it is spectacular. It is sacred to the Aboriginal people . The Olga’s is more impressive . Did you visit Kings Canyon ? Since deserts don’t suit your taste then just go to Europe and visit the over crowded touristy areas , especially the beaches that are full of sun beds which spoils the natural beauty of the beaches .

      I was there 2 months ago there are still scars on one rock face from the visitors who used too climb it and then show their respect by using it as a toilet once they got to the top. No wonder the indigineous people who have regarded that as their traditional land for 40,000 years complained about the disrespect that was being shown by tourists for their sacred places and the govt. stopped it.

But honestly, i think banning climbing it is more about Aboriginals throwing their weight around which is something they seem to enjoy doing allot these days. They are out to prove they are number 1 in the land and everyone else are beneath them.

    I understand why you are disappointed with this feature of Australia because there are too many restrictions placed on visitors. I went there in 1982, and the experience was very different from yours because I was able to walk around the rock (approx 9klms) without restrictions and absorb the majesty of the area. The rock does change colour, but you need a combination of cloud cover and hopefully rain to get the best results. There was also a post box at the top of the rock for visitors to send post cards and letters around the world with a special Ayers Rock date stamp. Unfortunately, this is no longer possible, which is why your experience was not what you expected.

      I,ve been to the top of Table Mountain I've also seen it both with and without its table cloth. I also recently visited Uluru with my wife while travelling around Australia with our caravan they are 2 completely different experences. One is about incredible scenery and breathtaking views (with the risk of being mugged before you go up there) and the other is about immersing yourself in an ancient culture that goes back 40,000 years in a landscape that stretches to the horizon in every direction. In South Africa I actually prefered spending time in the high veldt of Mpumalanga around Graskop and the Game Parks of Kwa Zulu during the 3 years that we spent living and working in Richards Bay. These Utube reactors are cluless when it comes to travel they continually produce this type of clickbait just to get an audience. The ones who believe them are mostly those who have never been anywhere.

    It is boring. Went there twice bc my brother worked there and seriously you can go look at any hill or dirt or rock and get the same experience. Its a tourist trap with too much woke bs attached to it. Dunno about being called majestic. The castles in Germany are majestic, a big rock in the desert is just a big rock thats bigger than other big rocks.

    1 - In the middle of nowhere, flat landscape all around, car flips over in the middle of the road... you couldn't just drive around it? I mean, even if the bus has to turn around it still has to go off road to do so... or was soft sand a concern?
    2 - it might only be just a big rock in the middle of nowhere, but honestly being an amateur geology enthusiast, the thought of the time scale involved in that rock being there gives me shivers. I could do without the tour guide stories, and just sit there gazing, contemplating the enormity of the passage of time involved.

    • @Levispicze

      Yes, a tour guide's job is not to make people bored to death, get them excited about the topic, get them involved with the subject whatever it is. When i was in Sumatra my guide's passion was contagious, it was awesome. I never really complain about stuff but this one was simply off for me. Make your way to Alice Springs, drive/travel like 8 hours there and back, pay a lot of money to see the rock with all the restrictions while flies are raping their way into your body thru your eyes, nose, ears, mouth, not plesent lol
