Overview

Experience the World Heritage Kakadu National Park on this interactive day tour from Darwin. On this small group Kakadu day tour, your Offroad Dreaming Guide will interpret for you, the Ancient Artworks at the Ubirr Rock Art Sites, spend time with the Artworks at ground level, or climb to the top to view the 360' lookout over the Wetlands from the Nadab lookout, join the Guluyambi Cultural Cruise on the East Alligator River, to hear about the history and culture of the people and the land and take up their invitation for a step into Arnhem Land, where there will be a cultural demonstration. Your professional guide will take you through the day, sharing with you knowledge and stories as you go.

During March and April, we will revert to our equally in depth wet season itinerary for the Kakadu Day Tour. This will include visiting the Rock Art Galleries at Burrungkuy, Nourlangie Rock, instead of Ubirr and we will take the Yellow Waters Billabong Cruise instead of the Guluyambi Cruise.

Thank you for a truly memorable day trip. The river boat cruise and the rock art was amazing. Annie the driver was fantastic!

The trip got off to a great start, as I was literally picked up at the exact time I was told I would be by Offroad Dreaming, the tour organizer. I was also fortunate to have Annie as the group guide, as her passion for her work and knowledge of the area made for a great day. While visiting during wet season “limits” what one might see compared to dry season, this trip was still exceptional in every way. Upon arrival to Kakadu, we started at Burrungkuy (Nourlangie). After a bit of mild uphill hiking, we visited a series of rock shelters at which we were able to see the amazing rock art, some of which is estimated to be up to 20,000 years old. It is hard to wrap one’s head around it, and not wonder what messages the drawers were trying to convey. A truly remarkable experience! The second part of the trip was a boat cruise along the Yellow River. Very pleasant and enjoyable. Beautiful water lilies everywhere. It was also great to see some crocodiles along the way! In spite of all the driving she had to do, Annie never lagged in her enthusiasm for what she showed us. The trip was well paced with plenty of rest stops. A tasty lunch was also made available to the group, as well as other snacks along the way, topped off by a refreshing cool towel. This trip makes for a long day, but it is worth every second.

The views were amazing, Kakadu is really special. Our tour guide Brooke was very kind! She was respectful and informative while showing and talking to us about the history behind the aboriginal art. We had time to explore some areas by ourselves for a bit which was nice. Lunch was yummy and the snacks throughout the day were good too. Bus was very comfy with perfect temp air con. I was in a group of 8 which was great and made it a very comfortable and personal tour. Would recommend for solo travellers. It is quite pricey but I think it’s worth it for the quality of the tour.
