AAT Kings has unveiled its expanded 2026/27 Day Tour collection, introducing new and enhanced experiences across some of Australia’s most iconic destinations, designed for travellers short on time but eager to connect deeply with place, culture, and story.
Ideal for visitors wanting to maximise their time on the ground, AAT Kings Day Tours deliver seamless, expertly guided experiences across Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Alice Springs, the Northern Territory’s Top End and Tropical North Queensland. With everything taken care of, from hotel pick-ups to expert Driver Guides, guests can simply relax and immerse themselves in the destination.
Building on its strong Northern Territory portfolio, and reputation as a trusted specialist in guided touring across Australia’s most remote and culturally significant regions, AAT Kings now offers 17 Day Tours across the NT, including 10 experiences in the Red Centre and seven in the Top End.
New and updated Day Tours for 2026/27
Among the highlights of the new Day Tour offering is the Uluru Culture & Kata Tjuta Trails, an immersive Red Centre experience that explores the sacred landscapes of Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park. Guests visit the Uluru-Kata Tjuta Cultural Centre, walk through Walpa Gorge, and take a guided walk around Uluru’s base, including Mutitjulu Waterhole. From $155 per person.
Also new for 2026/27, the Kata Tjuta Sunset & Valley of the Winds Walk has been enhanced to include sunset drinks and light snacks at Kata Tjuta, offering a memorable conclusion to the 5.4-kilometre Valley of the Winds trek as the outback sky glows at dusk. From $219 per person.
The refreshed Alice Springs Highlights & Nature Escape replaces the former “A Town Like Alice” tour, delivering a comprehensive exploration of Central Australia. The experience includes the West MacDonnell Ranges, Simpsons Gap, Angkerle (Standley Chasm), the School of the Air and the historic Alice Springs Telegraph Station, with lunch included. From $189 per person.
For travellers seeking a relaxed evening experience, the Uluru BBQ Dinner is now available as a standalone experience. Guests enjoy a casual BBQ beneath a star-filled desert sky, with Uluru as the backdrop, while learning about the southern night sky from their guide. From $219 per person.
To make sightseeing even easier to plan and sell, AAT Kings also offers Sightseeing Passes, allowing guests to bundle multiple Day Tours at great value. Options include the Discovery Piti Pass, Wiru Pass, and Manta Pass, covering Uluru sunrise and sunset experiences, Kata Tjuta, Walpa Gorge, sacred sites and Field of Light.
“Our Day Tours are designed for travellers who want meaningful experiences without the commitment of a longer itinerary,” AAT Kings Group CEO Ben Hall said.
“Whether it’s walking through sacred landscapes at Uluru, hiking the Valley of the Winds, or enjoying a BBQ under the desert stars, these tours make it easy to connect with Australia’s stories, culture and natural beauty, guided by people who truly know the land.”
The expanded Day Tour range complements AAT Kings’ broader 2026/27 program, which also includes Classic Guided Tours, Small Group journeys and Short Breaks across Australia and New Zealand.
