What Lonely Planet Says about Kakadu National Park

Lonely Planet

"You’ve probably absorbed many of the images and information that abounds about this NT icon. You would have heard that it’s Australia’s largest national park, sheltering a variety of habitats and wildlife, including saltwater crocodiles. And it’s well known that the park is World Heritage listed. But experiencing the extraordinary natural and human histories kept at Kakadu defies anything you’ve read (including this). Even old-hand nature buffs will find for the first time seed pods, insects and animals unique to the area. The 2000 million-year-old rocks tell 20, 000-year-old stories: of the existence of long-extinct giant kangaroos and thylacines. There are hundreds of square kilometres of park, so allow at least three days to discover a smidgen."

About Travelwild Australia

Travelwild Logo

We are an Australian based tour operator who began running small group Adventure Tours for backpackers and active travelers on Kangaroo Island in 1998. We started with a 2 day 4WD Camping Tour, and today are proud to offer over 30 high quality small group adventure tours from Kakadu and the Kimberley in the north, to the Outback and Ayers Rock in the centre to Kangaroo Island in the South.

Travelwild Tours are either "Travelwild Operated Tours" run by Travelwild, or "Travelwild Partner Tours" run by our partners who share our passion for Small Group, Active Adventure Tours.

Either way your tour will be led by a professional local guide, you'll visit out of the way places the busses and crowds don't go, you will have quality camping equipment and good food. The small groups allow plenty of time to have fun and explore.

Join one of these tours and we guarantee you will have an experience you'll never forget as you camp, hike, swim and canoe your way through the Australian Wilderness.

Small Groups, 4WD Vehicles, Local Knowledge, Adventure Activities and Active People is quite simply a recipe for a great tour, suprising few tour operators understand this simple fact.

  • Small Groups. Our small group Australian tours are kept small because they allow for better access to remote areas, creates less environmental impact and creates a much better tour dynamic. The reality is that big bus groups suffer because guides are too busy organizing a large group rather than guiding. If you want to meet other people and fun as a group, keep it small!
  • 4WD Vehicles. They may not be the most comfortable vehicles around, but if you want to get the best spots in Australia without the crowds you need to divert down some of our 4WD only dirt tracks. If you are prepared to rough it, then you'll be rewarded.
  • Local Knowledge is vital if you expect your guide to know what they are doing. Each Travelwild Tour is owned and operated by local individuals who live and love where they tour.
  • Adventure Activities are the best way to experience pristine wilderness areas, hiking, swimming, climbing, bush camping and canoeing (on selected tours) gets you into the bush and away from the crowds.
  • Active People, most passengers who travel are between 18 and 39, come from all over the world, lead active lives and enjoy the outdoors, (most groups are around 50% males and females). If you want to have fun on tour, it's important you travel with people you can relate to.

Outback Tours Let You Truly See Australia

When most visitors come to Australia, they want to see the country that has been popularised in the media- they want tours of rugged outback, full of man-eating crocodiles, cute kangaroos, and gorgeous scenery. Well, here at Travel Wild, we specialise in outback tours which can give you personal access to all of the things that make our country so great. One of the more popular outback tours is our Kakadu tours from Darwin. These trips will take you through the scenic Kakadu National Park, which is full of all the animals, scenery, and history that you should expect from a high quality tour.

Kakadu 4WD Tours for Everyone

We feature many different types of Kakadu safaris. Whether you want to go on a day trip or get lost in the wilderness for the week, we can make it happen on one of our many Kakadu tours. We also feature a variety of different levels of comfort. If you want a full outdoorsy experience, you can go on our rugged Kakadu tours, sleeping under the stars and travelling as light as possible. For families or people who desire more amenities, we also feature Kakadu trips with tents, showers, and bathrooms.

What You Will See on Our Kakadu Trips

No matter which one of the Kakadu safaris you choose, you will end up seeing a little bit of everything. The tour starts on a river boat, where you might catch a glimpse of a huge crocodile sunning himself. Then, our Kakadu 4WD tours continue by land, where we will stop to eat indigenous plant life and take photos of the breathtaking scenery. We will see cave art that dates back over 40,000 years, and we will get uniquely exclusive access to the well-hidden Koolpin gorge. Our commitment to you is that you have an experience you will never forget.
