Day
2: Darwin to Kakadu
You’ll meet your guide & fellow travellers early as we

Entering the Park we visit the spectacular scenery and Aboriginal
rock art of Nourlangie Rock, one of the most significant

aboriginal people and their country. We set up camp for the

Day
3: Kakadu to Darwin
After an early breakfast, we depart on our big day out to
Twin Falls and Jim Jim Falls. These falls are
in a remote area of the Park only accessible by four wheel
drive vehicle, some 70 kilometres off the sealed road via
a dirt track. This is an area of incredible natural beauty,
and the waterfalls are rainwater fed, therefore after several
months without rain (around August and September) it's possible
they may not be flowing. The rock pools and surrounds are
magnificent year round and well worth the journey. Twin Falls
is only accessible by water therefore we take a short boat
ride through the gorge to the beach at the base of the falls.
After a picnic lunch on the banks of the river, we take the
hike (approximately 1 km) through the rainforest to Jim Jim
Falls and its crystal clear waters. We return to the camp
for dinner and overnight.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Stay: Kakadu Permanent Campsite - Mududjurl Dreamtime

4: Kakadu to Darwin
After breakfast this morning, we cruise the spectacular
Yellow Waters, home to a wide variety of bird life and
possibly the lurking Saltwater Crocodile. Next we travel to
the crystal clear rock pool and scenic beauty of Barramundi
Gorge. We then visit the colourful rock art and spectacular
scenery of Ubirr Rock. This is a fascinating site with spectacular
views over Kakadu. We then take the Arnhem Highway back to
Darwin, arriving at approximately 6.30pm.
