Great wildlife experience! - This trip was amazing I really had the best time! Our guide was Russel, he was super knowledgable and great at pointing out all the wildife and identifying birds. He had great knowledge of aboriginal stories and history in the areas we visited. The group was a good size. Travelling in November at the beginning of the wet season meant everywhere was very quiet, we had most rock pools and waterfalls to ourselves. It was hot and humid but there was plenty of swimming! Highly recommend especially if you want to a lot of amazing birds and other wildlife and beautiful landscapes.

Very professional! - I booked a tour with Territory Expeditions. Because there was not enough people joining, they've arranged to delegate to another company doing the same tour. Because we were not complitely satisfied after the tour, Territory Expeditions proposed to refund part of the amount we paid. Very professional staff.

Amazing trip! - I’m usually not the tour type and prefer doing things on my own. But since I only had a limited time in Darwin and wanted to make the most of it, I decided to join that tour and I didn’t regret it for a second! Amazing experience! Our guide Adam was very nice, funny and his knowledge and passion really made a big difference! I highly recommend this tour! We saw a lot in 3 days: Swimming in natural pool, short hikes, aboriginal art, crocodiles (a lot) and I had to experience sleeping under the stars in a swag. I really learn a lot on that trip!

Well worth it - This tour is expensive but I would gladly spend my money again. The tour was well organized, our guide Russel was very knowledgable in nature and aboriginal history and made sure that everyone was happy. I personnally preferred Kakadu to Litchfield, being maybe less touristic. Be prepared to swim a lot!

Amazing Tour! - Excellent trip. Including a lot of water falls and even a crocodile cruise, wildlife spotting and some rock art. Our guide Russell was amazing. He was informative, kind and really took care of us. He explained us about the aboriginal culture and showed us lovely places in the nature. The only thing that I got disappointed about is that we didn’t get a notice that we can’t visit Jim Jim Falls and Twin Falls because the road was in a bad condition...

Professional, well run tour - Lovely trip taking in the highlights of these parks. Russell was our extremely professional guide for a group of 14. It ran like clockwork. The trip featured swimming rather than walking.

Fantastic Tour - Highly Recommended - Our tour comprised of a small group of 8 wonderful people, as well as our guide Russell, accompanied by Ken. This tour was a wonderful way to experience the Northern Territory, Kakadu and Litchfield. Both Russell and Ken were extremely knowledgeable about local animals, plants, traditional customs, geology, etc, and were always ready with interesting info and to answer any questions we had. The tour was well planned but never felt restricted or limiting. The wetlands cruise on the billabong was great, the rock art in Kakadu was fascinating, and we thoroughly enjoyed all of the hikes/walks and swimming in the beautiful rock pools and waterfalls. Even the long drives between places were kept interesting with frequent stops to view wildlife or scenic lookout points. This was a camping tour, so accommodation and facilities were rustic, but still comfortable, and the food was simple but plentiful and delicious. We had absolutely no complaints about anything on the tour. Definitely one of the highlight of our 3 weeks in Australia.

Incredible and memorable experience of the NT - This recent trip to the NT has been the most memorable holiday to date. I joined the tour solo, only to be humbled by the likeminded and adventurous group of people I met. I contemplated doing Kakadu and Litchfield on my own with a hire car but after spending three days with a fantastic tour guide Chris, learning about the diverse landscape that is the Northern Territory and discovering truths about aboriginal history, his local knowledge enhanced the experience for me by providing an insight into a world I have only read about on Google.
The idea of immersing myself in nature is exactly what this tour was. Swimming in peaceful waterholes and stunning waterfalls and lucky for us, we collectively decided as a group to make an early start on the final day to catch the sunrise at Gunlom Falls in Kakadu making this the highlight of the trip.
In terms of the ammenities, the toilets, sleeping areas and food was fine and after a day out, conversations over dinner with the group were an added pleasure.
I can’t rate this trip high enough. Forever grateful for this experience, my love affair with the Top End continues....
Thank you!

Awesome experience at Litchfield and Kakadu National Park - This was one of the best tours (adventures!) I've ever been on. Our guide Chris went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time, sharing his insight on aboriginal culture and experience in the outback throughout the trip.
There were a few things we did that were different from the original itinerary. However, that was due to seasonal variations and catering for the needs of the group. (Basically if the group was having fun, we would stay at the location a bit longer).
My highlights of the trip was definately swimming at the infinity pool at Gunlom Falls and the hike to Gunwarddehwarde Lookout. At both these locations, Chris took us when there was no one else there which only enhanced my experience and to truly enjoy the moment.
The accommodations at both sites we stayed at over the 2 nights were comfortable. Both the corroboree Park and Mary River Roadhouse had power at their dorms/tents and the amenities were no more than 50m from our beds. The path to toliets/showers were not well lit. However, that was easily managed by either the phone light or a torch (which the tour mentioned to bring).
The food was simple and basic but it was reflective of a true camping experience. Don't expect a continental buffet meal on a camping trip.
Chris made us aware that Kakadu national park is the size of a small European country and the little time we had to explore this area would involve a lot of driving. However the order of locations we visited were well planned and even the longer drives were broken up with regular toilet breaks or pit stops at the servo with no more than 1.5 hours maximum continuous driving.
I highly recommend this tour for anyone to truly experience the wonders of Litchfield/Kakadu national park with little to no camping experience, as everything was sorted for us. Special mention to Chris for being an amazing tour guide and an all round awesome bloke.

Amazing adventure through Kakadu and Litchfield National Parks - If you're looking for a true outback experience, seeing the best Kakadu and Litchfield have on offer, book this tour!
Our tour guide, Chris, was awesome. He showed us real "off-the-beaten-tracks" locations and created a truly unforgettable experience that was tailored to the needs of the group. The highlights of our tour include swimming in Buley Rockhole, Florence Falls, Gunlom Falls and Moline rock hole. Chris guided us through a hike up at Gunlom Falls to catch the sunrise and swim before the sun was too high and pretty much had the entire place to ourselves. This was the most memorable moment of this trip.
In terms of accommodation, we were a group of 3 from Melbourne, with very minimal camping experience and visiting the Northern Territory for the first time. We were comfortable and happy with the basic accommodation provided. The first night we stayed in a tent within a powered camp site. The tent was equipped with a fan, light, power point and 2 beds. The toilets and bathrooms were a short walk away from the tents (approx 50m away) and the pub was about 100m away. The second night we stayed in air conditioned dorms with bunk beds. The rooms were clean and kept cool at night. The toilets and bathrooms were about 20m away and the pub was about 30m away. Overall, the accommodation provided was clean and comfortable.
Prior to booking this tour, we were made aware that the itinerary can change due to seasonal variations. The only thing that was changed on our trip was the Adelaide River Crocodile cruise (we did the Wildlife cruise instead). Albeit, probably not as exciting as a crocodile cruise but a nice experience regardless.
I cannot recommend this tour highly enough!
