Kakadu National Park
Kakadu National Park is a vast and breathtakingly beautiful protected area located in the Northern Territory of Australia. Covering nearly 20,000 square kilometers, it is Australia's largest national park and is renowned for its stunning landscapes, rich biodiversity, and cultural significance.
The park is characterized by its diverse ecosystems, ranging from wetlands and floodplains to savannah woodlands and sandstone escarpments. The ancient escarpments, which border the park, reveal a geological history spanning hundreds of millions of years, providing a unique backdrop to the natural wonders within.
What sets Kakadu apart is not only its natural beauty but also its cultural significance. The park is home to the Bininj/Mungguy people, who have lived in the region for over 65,000 years. The Indigenous people of Kakadu, with the oldest living culture on Earth, have a deep connection to the land and its stories. Visitors have the opportunity to learn about their ancient traditions, Dreamtime stories, and the rich cultural history that has shaped the landscape.
In addition to its natural and cultural wonders, Kakadu National Park is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognizing its outstanding universal value. The park's unique blend of biodiversity, ecological processes, and cultural heritage make it a must-visit destination for those seeking an immersive experience in the wonders of Australia's Northern Territory.

Tours
Kakadu National Park is a World Heritage-listed and the largest national park in Australia, covering almost 20,000 square kilometres. It contains one of the highest concentrated areas of Aboriginal Rock Art sites and wetlands in the world. Some of the art sites date back 50,000 years. The most famous sites are Burrunggui (Nourlangie Rock) and Ubirr, which most of our Kakadu tours visit. The landscape provides all the ingredients for an Aussie outback adventure holiday, from rugged gorges and escarpments to pristine wetlands. This habitat is home to a staggering 1600 plant species and over 200 species of birdlife.
Kakadu also boasts several picturesque waterholes perfect for swimming in and cooling down on a warm day in the outback. Maguk, in the southern region of Kakadu, is a magical combination of a waterfall and a serene plunge pool shaded by native gums and paperbark trees.
Enjoy wetland cruises, such as the Yellow Waters Billabong Cruise, with beautiful paperbark forests and the odd resident crocodile, or for those wanting to get away from the crowds, we offer lunchtime cruises on the Corroboree Billabong just outside the boundary of Kakadu National Park.
