7 Days of true Top End adventure!
DAY 1 | DARWIN | 1 NIGHT
Arrive in Darwin and overnight in a luxurious waterfront hotel, ready to launch into the Top End early tomorrow morning.
DAY 2 | KAKADU & ARNHEM LAND PRIVATE CAMPING SAFARI | 2 NIGHTS
With your driver, in a private vehicle, head ‘out bush’ to your tented safari camp – your base for exploring Fogg Dam Reserve, the Mary River Wetlands by airboat, to cruise on Yellow Water Billabong and visit Gunbalanya and Injalak, Maguk Gorge and Gunlom Falls. You will enjoy the company of a local Aboriginal guide who will weave magic into the stories of the land and share their traditional, quiet life with you. This is not a ‘canned tourist performance’ but an exploration of the land with the people whose ancestors have walked it for millenia. This will be nothing short of outstanding.
DAY 4 | BAMURRU PLAINS | 3 NIGHTS
Transfer to the stunning wilderness lodge, Bamurru Plains, on the edge of the Mary River floodplains. Explore this region of exceptional natural beauty and unique biodiversity on an airboat skimming through a wilderness of clear water and tall grass, or on a 4WD adventure or walking safari through the savannah searching for wallabies, buffalos and dingos in the company of an expert guide. Return to the lodge each night for gourmet dining and pure bush luxury.
