Tours, sightseeing tours, activities & things to do | Viator.comKakadu National Park, Katherine and Litchfield 4 Day Camping Tour from Darwin
Duration: 4 days / 3 nights (approx.)
Location: Darwin, Australia
Product code: 2230SKKL4
The area in the north of Australia's Northern Territory is known as the 'Top End'. It's a huge area, big enough to include three world class National Parks. Because the Top End is vast, each of these parks offers a different landscape, different birds and animals, different cultural and ecological history and its own unique feeling - its own spirit.
Your tour guide will show you all this and more while they concentrate on the priority - making sure you have a great time. The atmosphere is relaxed and casual, but highly professional. You'll enjoy great Australian food cooked on the campfire and you're welcomed (but not obliged) to lend a hand.
