Detailed itinerary

Berry Springs Nature Park, which offers beautiful natural pools and a warm springs, surrounded by stunning tropical plants and trees. You can swim or float on one of our swim noodles down a small stream, fringed with pandanas palms and other tropical plants.... A little piece of heaven. The location is known as Laniyuk by the indigenous Kungarakany people and must have been a great place for rejuvenation, then as well as today. The water is very clear, especially in the morning, before the crowds arrive and you might like to bring your goggles to spot beautiful tropical fish or maybe even a turtle.

We make our way to Adelaide River to board our exciting JUMPING CROCODILE CRUISE. Adelaide River has one of the highest concentrations of Saltwater Crocodiles in the world! You will be enthralled by a spectacular display of hunting skills of these apex predators. Before you board for your 1-hour of Jumping Crocodile cruise, you are able to spot some birds in the small Billabong close by or stroll through the local shop for some souvenirs.

We will stop at a magical place called Fogg Dam on our back towards Darwin. The road along the low dam wall allows us to drive through the middle of the billabong and get up close to the wildlife. From various viewing platforms we can spot a great variety of Birdlife, such as the Australian Darter, Jacanas, Brolgas, and many more of the 280 species of birds in the Top End.

What better way to finish the day, full of the wonders of the Top End, than with a visit to a classic outback pub to enjoy a lovely cold beverage? Sit back and relax, before our drive back to Darwin. You will be back to your hotel at around 5:00 in the afternoon.
