3 DAY 4WD KAKADU ADVENTURE - CAMPING (JUNE - SEPT)

Day 1: Darwin – Kakadu
Pick up at 6.30-6.45am from your nominated accommodation in Darwin.

We start our Kakadu tour by heading towards Kakadu to join a wildlife cruise on Corrobboree Billabong. This is a wonderful opportunity to see crocodiles and the prolific birdlife in their natural habitat. After the cruise, we commence our drive toward Kakadu National Park.

Stop & enjoy a picnic lunch near the East Alligator River with the opportunity to spot some crocs and flying foxes!Then, on to the world-famous Ubirr in the North of the park.
Some of the best examples of Northern Australian rock art can be found here. Learn about the art from your guide and the meaning behind these special paintings. A climb to the top is rewarded with staggering 360º views over the Nardab floodplains and into Arnhem land.

Tonight, we camp at our exclusive safari camp at Mardugal Billabong in the heart of Kakadu. Enjoy sitting around an open campfire enjoying a cool beverage or a toasted marshmallow.

Day 2: Kakadu
After breakfast, we do some 4-Wheel driving to Jim Jim Falls. A 1 km walk through the gorge surrounded by towering 200m high sandstone cliffs leads to the impressive plunge pool for a
well-deserved refreshing swim or simply relax on the beach whilst taking in the breathtaking views.

After lunch, we make our way to Burrungkuy (Nourlangie Rock), here, we learn about the Dreamtime stories and the rock art of this region and its special significance to the traditional owners of this land.

A hike up to Gunwhardewharde lookout provides spectacular views across the woodlands to the impressive Arnhem Land escarpment whilst taking in the vista of Burrungkuy and Anbangbang Billabong.

A visit to the Warradjan Cultural Centre is a wonderful opportunity to gain some insight into the traditional owners of Kakadu through interactive displays and demonstrations.
