DEPARTS: 06:30am
RETURNS: 18:30pm
MAIN PICKUP LOCATION & TIME: Travelodge Resort Darwin, 64 Cavenagh St, Darwin City NT 0800. Join us on an exclusive 4WD safari adventure of a lifetime showcasing the very best Kakadu & Litchfield National Park has to offer. Discover some of the oldest and best-preserved Aboriginal Rock Art in the world, and keep a lookout for some of our prehistoric friends (crocodiles) as we cruise the ancient wetlands by boat. We venture off the road and hike through monsoon rainforest to spectacular waterfalls and cool off in some of the most beautiful natural plunge pools imaginable. We'll be exploring some truly spectacular countryside, among pockets of rainforest packed with endemic species of flora and fauna. This adventure tour will have you relaxing in comfort each evening after being on the move all day. Our private campsites are complete with a wonderfully equipped, enclosed camp kitchen, spacious safari tents or bush swags. After action-packed days of exploration, culture, and unmatched vistas you will love relaxing in a brilliant bushland setting under the stars, enjoying your comfortable twin permanent safari tent or your traditional swag experience (canvas-covered bedroll).
Day 1: Darwin - Kakadu National Park
Start your adventure by departing from Darwin and heading out to the Mary River Wetlands region onboard the Corroboree Billabong Wetland Cruise. A great opportunity to spot a huge range of Top End birdlife, not to mention some apex predators… crocodiles!
We journey on to Kakadu National Park visiting the Bowali Visitor Centre which offers a beautiful introduction to the Park's landscape and wildlife. After some relaxation at camp, we will journey north to *Cahills Crossing on the border of Kakadu and Arnhem Land. We will visit one of the best-preserved collections of Aboriginal rock art in the world at Ubirr rock upon sunset. This incredibly significant site showcases many styles of rock art and allows us to climb up high for a sunset that will blow you away looking out over the Nadab Floodplain. After a big day, we head back to our cozy private camp and prepare dinner together, enjoying an evening with our fellow travellers.

We aim to visit one or more of the available waterfalls depending on the group's physical ability to complete the hike(s).

There are many factors affecting accessibility although your guide will ensure you get the best experience possible.
Time permitting, we stop at Burrungkuy (Nourlangie Rock), another indigenous rock art site where archaeologists have uncovered works dating back over 20,000 years old.

- While we endeavour to cater to most dietary needs, passengers must advise dietary requirements to their booking agent at the time of booking. As we are venturing to remote areas we are very limited in what we can source once the tour departs, therefore prior notice is required.

- Children aged between 8 to 17 years old must be accompanied by an adult or legal guardian at all times. Not suitable for infants or children 7 years and under, due to safety requirements and the level of fitness required to complete the walks.
- Limited storage space on our vehicle, baggage kept to 1 x 15kg travel bag, 1 x 5kg day bag. Not suitable for mobility-impaired travellers, wheelchairs, walkers or strollers.
- Itineraries may vary to adapt to seasonal changes and occasionally sites in the parks close or do not allow swimming. As safety is our top priority we plan accordingly to ensure our guests have the most fun and best experience possible while on tour.
- Guests are asked to participate in the preparation of meals, clean up and vehicle unpacking/loading, so everyone can relax together after a long day of touring. It's also a great way to get to know and connect with your fellow travellers.
