Kakadu Wildlife Bonanza

Adventurers who love wilderness will love this trip through Arnhem Land in Australia’s tropical Top End, with visits to Kakadu and Mary River National Parks to see rock art sites and remarkable wildlife.

In this wild land brolgas fly across the sunset, huge crocodiles laze on riverbanks, and the sandstone shimmers with the oldest art in the world. Feel the timeless peace of a landscape full of animals but with remarkably few people, wake to the manic calls of flying-foxes and cockatoos, look out across a billabong filled with waterlilies, and walk on rocks that were created some 600 million years ago.
