Aussie
Adventures
In Northern Territory
The
world heritage listed Kakadu National Park lies
east of Darwin and is a very special place. Discover
within its boundaries an entire river with all
the associated ecosystems and experience an ancient
culture up to 40,000 years old. Anytime is a good
time to visit. Apr-May finds the country side
still fresh from recent rains and alive with growth.
Jun-Sep brings clear blue skies, access to most
areas as rivers recede and the coolest months
to visit. Oct-Dec is the hottest time and is the
best time for wildlife watching. Jan-Mar sees
the most rainfall but to see the landscape come
alive with waterfalls and the spectacular lightning
storms on the horizon is a once in a lifetime
opportunity.

ITINERARY:
This
tour is ideal for people with limited time to give a glimpse
of what Kakadu has to offer. The itinerary has been designed
to allow sufficient time for you to fully appreciate the attractions
visited.
Turning
off the Stuart Highway, we travel along the Arnhem Highway
passing the major river systems and wetland regions into Kakadu
National Park. Located 257kilometres east of Darwin, this
national park covers 20,000 square kilometres of landscape
varying from rocky escarpment that is home to historic Aboriginal
rock art dating back thousands of years, to the floodplains
that are abundant with wildlife.
After
crossing the South Alligator River we head along the Kakadu
Highway to Warradjan Cultural Centre to view its informative
displays then continue to Cooinda to join the fabled Yellow
Water Wetlands Cruise to experience the beauty of the Kakadu
wetlands. After a buffet lunch at Cooinda we head off to explore
the World Heritage Area of Ubirr where we climb up through
the ancient Aboriginal rock art galleries, with informative
commentary from our guide, to the lookout for the view over
surrounding wetlands.
Late afternoon we make our way out of Kakadu National Park,
pausing for a comfort stop at the Corroboree Park Tavern before
arriving in Darwin at approximately 8.00pm.
