Kakadu Tours

Travelwild offers 2 sensational styles of Kakadu Tours to Kakadu National Park and the Top End of the Northern Territory, the "Rugged Style" and the "Safari Style" tours. Both tours offer plenty of action and will see you camping, hiking, swimming, 4WDing and exploring the best of the Top End's Natural Destinations like Kakadu National Park, Litchfield National Park and Katherine Gorge (Nitmiluk National Park).

The Rugged Style Kakakdu Tours carries a maximum of only 9 passengers in a 4WD, camps at more remote bush camps most nights, and is one of the most adventurous on the market. Expect to climb to top of waterfalls, travel on rough 4WD bush tracks, sleep under the stars in a swag, and go harder and further then most Kakadu Tours dare to take you.

This 4WD Kakadu Tour suits backpackers between 18 and 35 who are fit and active and have a passion for adventure, participants need to be able to not only participate in the adventure activities and travel in a rough 4WD, but also join together with a small group of like minded travelers in what is an extremely social environment. This tour is not suitable for children.

The Safari Style Kakadu Tours still gets out into the wilderness and pack in plenty of adventure and great activities, however there are a couple of extra comforts for those who don't want to completely rough it, these include larger, more comfortable vehicles with forward facing seats, and a preference for camping grounds with facilities like showers and toilets.

The Safari Style tours are for all travelers who love a bit of adventure and camping, they are suitable for independent travelers, families and children over 8 years old.

Kakadu National Park

Kakadu National Park is amazing, it's half the size of Switzerland, got man eating crocodiles, 40000 year old rock paintings, 4WD tracks and 150 metre high waterfalls.

Kakadu National Park is a Unesco World Heritage listed park and is one of only a handfull of World Heritage Listed areas which is listed for both it's Environmental and Cultural qualities. For more detailed information about Kakadu, see Kakadu National Park

Special permits, issued to only a small number of tour operators by the National Park Service, allows for unique access to Koolpin and Graveside gorges (5 day Kakadu Tour), these hidden destinations are left off most maps to discourage visitors because of their environmentally sensitive and culturally special qualities.

What Lonely Planet Says about Kakadu National Park

"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

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.

All 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.
