Leave Darwin behind for a full day in the Top End on this guided tour to Katherine Gorge and Edith Falls. Your day starts with an early hotel pick-up in Darwin at around 6:30 am, then a drive south in an air-conditioned coach with comprehensive commentary from your English-speaking driver-guide. Along the way you stop at Adelaide River War Cemetery, a WWII memorial where you can pay your respects to the many men and women who lost their lives during the war, with time for an optional morning tea. At Edith Falls you can relax by the natural pool or take a refreshing dip in the waterhole beneath the falls, weather permitting. The highlight of the day is Nitmiluk National Park, more than 292,000 hectares of rugged landscapes and waterfalls, where a two-hour cruise on Katherine Gorge lets you get up close to freshwater crocodiles and the wildlife of the region. You can also admire Aboriginal rock art that reflects the area's rich cultural heritage. Lunch is included, and at the Nitmiluk Visitor Centre you have time to browse souvenirs and local handmade artwork before the return journey to your Darwin hotel at around 8:30 pm.
