Day 1 - Darwin to Kakadu National Park We head towards Kakadu stopping to view birdlife in its natural habitat on the Marrakai Floodplain. Keep a watch for ‘crocs’ and other wildlife on a private crocodile and wildlife cruise on Corroboree Billabong, which is part of the Mary River system. Ubirr Rock is recognised as one of the most famous Aboriginal rock art and cultural areas in the world and a climb to the top will reward you with a 360° view over floodplains and the Arnhem Land Escarpment. (LD) Camp: Minimal Facility Campground (Toilets/no showers)
Day 2 – Kakadu National Park There’s 4WD action today as hit the track into Twin Falls. Here we’ll take an informative boat cruise with an Aboriginal guide through Twin Falls Gorge. Our 4WD traverses through sandy creeks into mighty Jim Jim Falls, where you’ll have the opportunity to cool off with a swim in the plunge pool. We’ll decide during the day which climb we take, but you’ll get to the top of either Twin or Jim Jim Falls today – it’ll be a rugged climb but worth it for the stunning views!

Next up is a visit to Barramundi Gorge where you can spend time exploring, rock climbing, relaxing or swimming in the waterfalls. We begin our journey back to Darwin, with one last stop at White Lily Billabong to admire the congregation of birdlife and the water lily covered floodplains. (BL)
