Tour Highlights
Itinerary
Day 1: Darwin to Mary River
A refreshing start to your day; the waterfalls of Litchfield National Park, followed by the spectacular Mary River Wetlands.

A secluded campsite at Point Stuart Wilderness Lodge is where we'll stay tonight. (LD)
Day 2: Mary River to Kakadu
Discover ancient Aboriginal rock art at Ubirr, our first stop this morning. Clamber to the top of a rocky lookout for fabulous views over the Nardab floodplain.
