Top End Explorer Tours
Join Top End Explorer Tours for a day in a small group of like-minded people on this adventurous 4WD safari to the edge of the impressive Arnhemland escarpment and experience these two world renowned icons of World-Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park!
Your guide will collect you from your accommodation in the township of Jabiru at 06:45, or from Gagudju Lodge Cooinda (Home of Yellow Waters) at 07:30 - it's worth getting up early to see these must-do's on your journey to Kakadu!
Travel comfortably in our air-conditioned 4WD through the savannah woodlands of Kakadu, which might initially appear lifeless, but have more diversity than you’d ever expect! Share your guide’s knowledge about Kakadu National Park with its changing landscapes and distinct ecosystems. Discover the astonishing variety of bush tucker (food supplied by Mother Nature) and potent medicine plants. Let your guide introduce you to the culture of the local Aboriginal people and tell some stories about the history of the area.
Find out some more interesting facts about the native flora and fauna on a bushwalk through the shady monsoonal rainforest along Jim Jim Creek. Be rewarded for hiking 900 metres over large rocks and boulders into the gorge with a refreshing swim in the cool, clear waters under the towering cliffs of Jim Jim Falls, a hot cuppa, and ample opportunity to take that perfect photograph.
Please note: Jim Jim Falls may or may not be flowing, depending on seasonal conditions.
Your journey continues with an adventurous drive on the 4WD track towards Twin Falls. A short boat trip and a stroll along the edge of the creek lead us into Twin Falls Gorge. Try to catch a glimpse of a pig-nosed turtle in the deep water of the creek or the timid freshwater crocodile basking in the sun. Take a break and enjoy your picnic lunch on the beautiful white sandy beach at the base of the magnificent Twin Falls.
Swimming is currently not permitted at Twin Falls.
