Overview

The Top End runs on contrast, and this day is built around it: mornings spent floating in Litchfield's famous waterfall pools, afternoons watching huge saltwater crocodiles launch themselves out of the Adelaide River. In Litchfield National Park you'll swim at Wangi Falls, Florence Falls and the cascading pools of Buley Rockhole, and pull over for the park's other giants, the magnetic and cathedral termite mounds. It's a small group capped at 24, travelling in an air-conditioned bus with Darwin hotel pickup, a bush lunch of wraps, and fresh drinking water all day. Then comes the finale: a private wildlife cruise where the river's jumping crocodiles do the thing they're famous for. You're back in Darwin by late afternoon, just grab your Litchfield park pass separately through NT National Parks before you go.

"My highlight of the trip was the chill vibe of Wangi Falls and the mango icypole, delicious and so worth it. It was also great meeting the crocs at the Adelaide River and getting very up close and personal!"
