ITINERARY:

Darwin - Kakadu National Park

Join us on the adventure of a lifetime as we uncover the very best Kakadu has
to offer. We leave tropical Darwin travelling through the rich floodplains
towards Kakadu National Park, this 20,000 square kilometre area is teeming
with wildlife, important Aboriginal rock art sites, and diverse landscapes.

Our first stop on this 1 Day Kakadu Tour is an optional Jumping Croc Cruise on
the Adelaide River or a visit to the Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve. The
traditional lands of the Limilngan-Wulna people (who are active in the
reserve’s management), one of the most spectacular places to explore the
diverse wildlife of the Top End, home to numerous species of birds, turtles,
water pythons and of course the iconic Saltwater Crocodile.

We’ll stop in at the Corroboree Park Tavern where you are able to support
locals and purchase your lunch and snacks for the day ahead, and continue on
to Bowali Visitor Centre to learn more about the rich Aboriginal culture and
history of this special place. We’ll visit the famous *Cahills Crossing in
search of crocodiles at this eye-opening stretch of water, the only road
access point between Arnhem Land and Kakadu National Park.

Visit the home to some of the oldest and best-preserved rock art galleries in
the world, Ubirr Rock, and marvel and the amazing rock formations of the East
Alligator region of Kakadu as it meets the West Arnhem plateau. Depending on
seasonality and accessibility to Ubirr, we may instead visit Kakadu’s other
main rock art attraction at Nourlangie Rock, traditionally also known as
Burrungkuy, where we can marvel at the art along the shaded rock shelters,
appreciate the colourful birdlife and hope to catch a glimpse of a number of
species found no-where else on the planet.
