Day One (Lunch)
We start off the tour and head straight to Kakadu National Park, via Australiana Bark Hut for a quick snack. Once we’ve arrived in Kakadu, we’ll stop for a tasty picnic lunch on the pretty banks of the East Alligator River (keep your eyes peeled for crocs!), and discover the centuries-old rock art that covers Ubirr Rock.
You’ll have the chance to look out over the sprawling plains of Arnhemland before we head to our accommodation at Mercure Kakadu Crocodile Hotel in Jabiru.
Day Two (Breakfast & Lunch)
After breakfast, we’ll head to Jim Jim Falls via a 4WD experience before walking through the impressive gorge and vine forests to take a refreshing dip in the clear pools. After lunch, we head to Warradjan Cultural Centre to learn about the life and culture of Kakadu’s traditional owners.
In the afternoon, we’ll head to our accommodation at Cooinda Lodge where you can cool off with a swim in the pool. As the evening falls, we’ll jump aboard a sunset cruise to take in the stunning colours on the Yellow Water Billabong and spot some of the crocodiles and birds that call the area home.
Day Three (Breakast & Lunch)
First off on day three, we’ll head to Maguk (Barramundi Gorge) for a short hike through the paperbark forest and a dip in the natural plunge pool. Then our final stop is Gunlom Falls for a hike to take in some of the best views in Kakadu from the famous infinity pool. Enjoy one last swim before we head back to Darwin.
Then it’s time to head home, stopping on the way at Pine Creek for our last look back at the beautiful scenery of Kakadu.
