About this tour
Five days exploring Australia's Top End by 4WD, camping in the remote wilderness of Kakadu, Katherine Gorge and Litchfield National Parks. You'll navigate off-road tracks, swim in natural pools beneath waterfalls, examine ancient Aboriginal rock art, spot saltwater crocodiles, and sleep under canvas at private campsites. The tour includes all meals, guided bush walks graded from easy to moderate-hard, and a billabong cruise. Expect early starts, physical activity most days, and shared camp duties each evening.

What to expect
Days alternate between driving, walking and water activities. Mornings start early; you'll travel to lookouts, rock art sites and walking trails, stopping for lunch on the road. Afternoons often include a swim or creek exploration before returning to camp. Evenings involve helping prepare and cook dinner together—a routine that bonds the group. Nights are warm; camps are equipped with proper kitchen facilities and safari tents or swags. Fitness matters: walks grade from short and easy to steeper, rockier 3km treks. The pace is steady and manageable for those with moderate fitness, but not leisurely.
