Highlights

With a true departure from the ordinary, your journey will begin with an amazing aircraft flight south to the breath-taking Katherine Gorge. You will fly over the rugged Aussie Outback, including Adelaide River and Pine Creek. After landing at Australia's top gun facility you will take a short drive to the gorges. The highlights continue with a helicopter flight taking you to hard-to-reach gorges that are as stunning as they are remote. This life-changing experience culminates with an awe-inspiring 2-hour boat cruise through the gorge, where you will be able to take in every remarkable aspect of the Katherine Gorge and understand its cultural heritage. Take a moment to relax before once again boarding a plane and returning to Darwin.

About Darwin

Darwin, capital of the Northern Territory, is a tropical harbour city on the Timor Sea and the gateway to Kakadu and Litchfield national parks.

Darwin lies on a deep natural harbour on Australia's northern coast, nearer to Indonesia than to most Australian cities. It was bombed by Japanese aircraft in February 1942 and flattened by Cyclone Tracy on Christmas Eve 1974, so most of the centre is modern. The Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory tells that story alongside Aboriginal art and natural history.

Top-ranked sights in Darwin: Adelaide River , Magnetic Termite Mounds, Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory (MAGNT).
