ITINERARY
Day 1:: Darwin to Kakadu
Spot crocodiles (and other wild creatures) on a cruise along the fresh waters of the Mary River Wetlands. After lunch, discover more about the land and its stories at the Bowali Visitor Centre. The whole of Kakadu is spread out before you at Ubirr Rock, where you spend the afternoon. Tonight you camp in Kakadu National Park. (LD)
Day 2:: Kakadu to Darwin
Jim Jim Falls is the first stop today, and it’s a stunner! You’ll feel a bit dwarfed by the towering cliffs as you hike to the base of the falls. By now you’ve probably worked up an appetite for some lunch! This afternoon the spectacular gorge of Twin Falls has experienced onboard a National Park-operated boat and along the boardwalk. Relax for a while on the sandy banks before you trek back to Darwin. (BL)
