Picked up from your Darwin accommodation between 6:30 and 6:45am, you’ll head straight for Corroboree Billabong for a wildlife cruise, an incredible chance to spot crocodiles and an extraordinary variety of birdlife up close in their natural habitat. From there, it’s into Kakadu National Park proper, with a stop for a picnic lunch near the East Alligator River where crocodiles and flying foxes are regular visitors.

Continue north to the world-famous Ubirr rock art site, where your guide brings thousands of years of ancient paintings to life. Climb to the top for jaw-dropping 360-degree views across the Nardab floodplains and into Arnhem Land.

Tonight, settle into your exclusive safari camp at Mardugal Billabong, right in the heart of Kakadu.

Accomodation: Shared permanent Safari Tents

Head south through the park to Gunlom Falls, a large emerald-coloured waterhole tucked among eucalypt and melaleuca trees (seasonal). Then it’s on to Ikoymarrwa (Moline Rockhole), an exclusive-access gem that requires special permits, meaning you get the place largely to yourselves.

With the best of Kakadu ticked off, head back to Darwin, arriving around 6pm.
