Overview

This 12-hour wildlife escape begins with pickup from selected locations in Darwin’s inner city by air-conditioned mini-coach. The tour travels through floodplains toward Kakadu National Park, a World Heritage-listed area covering 20,000 square kilometers known for its wildlife and ancient Aboriginal rock art. The first stop is at Adelaide River, where participants choose between an optional Jumping Crocodile Cruise on the river or a visit to Fogg Dam Conservation Centre, located on the traditional lands of the Limilngan-Wulna people. At Fogg Dam, visitors can observe various birds, turtles, water pythons, and saltwater crocodiles. The tour then continues to Bowali Visitors Centre for a 45-minute break, during which guests may purchase lunch at their own expense. After the break, the group enters Kakadu National Park to view wildlife and visit rock art sites. The itinerary includes a 75-minute visit to Ubirr rock or, during certain seasons, Nourlangie, where ancient rock galleries dating back approximately 20,000 years are located. The final stop is Cahills Crossing, a well-known spot for viewing saltwater crocodiles in the wide water stretch. The tour includes Kakadu Park entry fees and hotel pickup and drop-off within Darwin’s inner city. The optional Jumping Crocodile Cruise is available for an additional cost if selected. Participants should have a moderate fitness level to complete the walks, and luggage is limited to one small day bag per person. Meals and transfers outside the designated pickup points are not included.
