Following the cruise, we begin our drive to Kakadu National Park.

Stop for a picnic lunch near the East Alligator River, where you may see crocs and flying foxes!

Then it’s on to the world-famous Ubirr in the park’s north. This area contains some of the best examples of northern Australian rock art. Learn about the art and the meaning behind these special paintings from your guide.

Breathtaking 360-degree views over the Nardab floodplains and into Arnhem territory are the reward for the climb to the top.

We spend the night camped out at our secluded safari camp at Mardugal Billabong in Kakadu. Enjoy sipping a cold beverage or toasting a marshmallow while relaxing around an open campfire.
