2 Day Kakadu Retreat & Yellow Water Cruise Tour from Darwin

Here is the starting point

Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve

Start your leisurely journey departing from Darwin and heading out the 300 km to the UNESCO World Heritage-Listed Kakadu National Park. Our summer is lush and tropical, so we’ll stop at a few places along the way to take in some of the amazing scenery on offer including Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve where we can see a huge array of bird and wildlife species endemic to Australia’s Top End. Passing through the Wetlands Region we’ll of course ensure we have a photo at the welcome sign to Kakadu National Park - an unmissable opportunity.

Jabiru

The remainder of the morning will see us wind our way through Kakadu to the north of the park, spending some time in the township of Jabiru.

Kakadu National Park

Enjoy a picnic lunch here and browse the art (and great coffee) that Marruwuddi gallery has on offer, before heading south to the hub of Cooinda where we will check in to our accommodation and have a leisurely relaxation.

Yellow Water Cruises

This evening’s sunset will take place on board Kakadu’s famous 2-hour Yellow Water Cruise. This cruise is an absolute must-do for every visitor to the region, with the wet summer season’s rainfall resulting in the billabong stretching much further than it does during the dry winter season. Wildlife abounds and the sky will put on a show as you watch the last of the sun fall beyond the horizon.
