Spanning more than 20,000 square kilometres, Kakadu National Park is a land of immense natural beauty and cultural significance. Its landscapes shift from sweeping wetlands and ancient woodlands to dramatic escarpments and striking rock formations that have stood for millennia. With a third of Australia’s bird species and a fifth of its mammal species calling the park home, Kakadu is a living sanctuary where the wonders of nature can be experienced like nowhere else on Earth.
Your journey begins in tropical Darwin, travelling across lush floodplains into the heart of Kakadu. Along the way, choose to join an optional Jumping Croc Cruise on the Adelaide River or explore the wildlife-rich Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve, cared for by the Limilngan-Wulna people. After a quick stop at Corroboree Park Tavern to pick up lunch and refreshments, we continue to the Bowali Visitor Centre to discover the deep Aboriginal culture and history of the region. The adventure then takes you to Cahills Crossing, one of the park’s best crocodile viewing spots (subject to weather and season), before visiting world-renowned rock art sites. Depending on accessibility, you’ll explore either Ubirr Rock with its sweeping views over the Arnhem Plateau or Burrungkuy (Nourlangie Rock), where ancient rock shelters display some of the most extraordinary Aboriginal art, alongside birdlife and unique species found only in this remarkable part of the world.
