Day 1 - Darwin to Mary River
A refreshing start to your day: the
waterfalls of Litchfield National Park, followed
by the spectacular Mary River Wetlands. Birds aren't the only
wildlife abundant around here; keep your eyes out for lurking
crocodiles on our private river cruise! A secluded campsite
at Point Stuart Wilderness Lodge is where we'll stay tonight.
(LD)
Day 2 -
Mary River to Kakadu
Discover ancient Aboriginal rock art at Ubirr, our first stop
this morning. Clamber to the top of a rocky lookout for fabulous
views over the Nardab floodplain. Next it's on to Maguk (Barramundi
Gorge), where a hike is rewarded with a reviving swim in the
plunge pools. Tonight we stay at our permanent camp within
Kakadu NP.
(BLD)
Day 3 -
Kakadu to Darwin
Get ready for some 4WD action today on our way to Jim Jim
Falls! Once we get there, we'll hike to the base of the falls
before continuing on to Twin Falls. Feel the beauty of the
stunning gorge and powerful falls from the National Park operated
boat and boardwalk experience. The impressive scenery will
continue to amaze you as we journey back to Darwin in the
afternoon. Overnight motel accommodation included. (BL)
Day 4 -
Darwin City
A day free to relax and enjoy the tropical city of Darwin.
Take a look at the Museum, try fish feeding at Doctors Gully
or visit the Indo-Pacific Marine (day at own expense).
Overnight motel included. (Meals at own expense)
Day 5 -
Darwin to Katherine Gorge
Leaving Darwin, we stop for a break at Adelaide River on the
way to Katherine. We spend the whole afternoon at the majestic
Katherine Gorge (Nitmiluk), which is part of the Nitmiluk
National Park. Experience the striking beauty while canoeing
or cruising (at own expense) through the gorge itself. Tonight
we stay at our permanent camp near Katherine Gorge.
(LD)
Day 6 -
Katherine Gorge to Tennant Creek
Not far to the south is Mataranka, where you can revive in
a sparkling thermal pool surrounded by lush tropical forest.
Next stop is the iconic Daly Waters outback hotel, the Territory's
oldest pub. Nearby lies Australia's first international airport,
but you won't get a flight back home from here these days!
After lunch, we continue south to Tennant Creek where we camp
overnight at Juno Horse Farm.
(BLD)
Day 7 -
Tennant Creek to Alice Springs
This morning we check out the sacred site of the Devils Marbles,
which balance precariously on their rocky perch. From here
we stop in at Barrow Creek Pub, home to the historic Telegraph
Station - catch a glimpse of what Outback telecommunication
used to be like! A visit to Ti Tree gives you the chance to
buy original works of art by Indigenous artists, before crossing
over the Tropic of Capricorn to arrive in Alice Springs late
in the afternoon. Overnight motel accommodation included.
(BL)
Day 8 -
Alice Springs to Kata Tjuta & Uluru
Kick off your adventure on top of a camel! Our first stop
is the Outback Camel Farm where you can choose to ride atop
one of these desert giants (at own expense). From here it's
off to Uluru (Ayers Rock), and a bite to eat. Kata Tjuta will
fascinate you, and you will discover some of the secrets of
this ancient landform on the Valley of the Winds hike. You'll
be mesmerised as the desert sun sets over Uluru, and as the
night grows darker, curl up in your swag (Aussie bedroll)
under millions of stars.
(LD)
Day 9 -
Uluru to Kings Canyon
It's an early start this morning, but you'll be rewarded with
a glorious Uluru sunrise. Stretch your legs with a walk around
Uluru's base (unguided), or climb to the top if you choose.
You'll deepen your understanding of the land and its stories
at the Cultural Centre. After lunch we travel to our permanent
campsite at Kings Canyon. You'll fall asleep contented with
a delicious camp oven dinner filling your stomach.
(BLD)
Day 10 -
Kings Canyon to Alice Springs
Get your hiking shoes on today as we head out to explore the
impressive formations which make up Kings Canyon. You'll be
left breathless by the sheer beauty of the canyon as we trek
through the Amphitheatre, the Lost City, the lush and ancient
Garden of Eden and the North and South Walls. Lunch is a welcome
prospect, before we make our way back to Alice Springs.
