Highly recommend this tour for so many reasons. Communication from Tim about the details of our pick up were great. The day was well explained before we got to Injalak so we knew what to expect. Our guide, Sean, was amazing and took time to answer all our questions. The location itself has huge amounts of rock art and great views of West Arnhem Land. The tour was great value for money also. Do yourself a favour, stop reading my review, book a tour and experience it for yourself.

Cannot recommend this company enough.Tim is fantastic with communication and is so friendly and professional.The tour itself was excellent . We were picked up on time, learnt a lot on the chat up to Jaribu where more passengers boarded and we changed to an all wheel drive. We were fortunate enough to see some of the wildlife On the drive to Arnhem Land.At Cahills crossing we were lucky enough to Spot some crocs on the riverbanks. There were plenty of stops On the way to Get food drinks etc if we wanted.Our stop at Injalak art centre was great we had time to look at some amazing Aboriginal artwork and on the way home was able to purchase some art directly from an artist. Lunch of wraps with a variety of fillings available ( variety of meats, salad , falafel,condiments provided to make your own lunch to have after the walk at the top Of Injalak mountain. Morning tea was also Provided along with ice cold water.Definitely recommend bringing big water bottles as you will drink a lot as it is quite warm on the walk up.One thing I loved with this company was that a local Aboriginal guide, Shaun , Took us up the mountain and shared his knowledge of the land, told us about amazing artwork and the dreaming stories associated with these. Shaun was great as we just asked so many questions and he was happy to answer .Photos were welcome of most areas and again would let us know what areas were and weren’t able to have photos for specific cultural reasons which was totally understandable.When we finished our walk down from the top, we were greeted by Tim with cold water and small towels that were in ice they were the best thing ever after the walk.I walked away from the tour today with a Smile on my face. Not only Have I seen some beautiful country and artwork, I have met some fantastic people and gained much knowledge from being out on country and Shaun talking about his Ancestral knowledge and discussing the amazing artworks as we walked.If there is a tour to go on when in the Northern Territory i absolutely recommend this as a must. If ever I am up this way again I will definitely rebook.

Extraordinary and wonderful experience. Tim is a great tour manager. Shaun was our brilliant guide who gave us a unique and inspirational visit to see the beautiful rock art. It was incredibly moving to hear him tell his stories both in his language and ours. Well organised day. Many thanks!

Amazing unscripted experience. Lovely driver who did our pickup and drop off in Darwin and a unique experience with an indigenous tour guide showing us around sacred sites. If you are willing to see the real NT, this is your chance!

Please don’t miss the opportunity to see Arnhem Land, with traditional land owners. Our tour guide Tim was amazing and has built a unique experience for visitors. Our traditional land owner Craig spoke about culture, land and the history of the rock art. The injalak art centre and the painting I bought by Larry Bangaar is a beautiful piece. Beautiful art to enjoy at the gallery. We will return as Arnhem Land leaves a lasting impact. Tim assisted my friend to have a unique tour as she had twisted her knee prior to the tour, wow. Cannot thank Tim and Craig enough.

I loved this tour. I was a bit concerned beforehand that it might be too much to fit into one day, but I don't regret it for a moment.Unfortunately the art centre wasn't open during our visit, but we were fortunate to meet some traditional weavers nearby and see their beautiful work firsthand.The walk is very manageable, but there is no formed path, so you need to be comfortable keeping up the pace and staying with the group.Crag, a Djungkay for this Country, was incredibly generous in sharing his knowledge. I could easily have spent longer there, not because the visit felt rushed, but simply because I loved every minute of it. It was a privilege to visit such a special place and learn from those who care for it. I hope I am able to return one day.

An early day if you start in Darwin but the experience was personal, intimate and exclusive. My friends and I learnt so much and so deeply about the nation, land and culture from our indigenous guide Shaun and I still marvel at this generous access. A must for art lovers and anyone who wants a deeper connection and understanding with the land.

What a stroke of luck to have been able to take this fabulous tour of Arnhem Land with an Aboriginal guide. Surprising and exciting!

The Injalak cultural tour rates as one of the best experiences ever! We were treated to down to earth insights into the traditional life in West Arnhem Land. Our tour organiser Tim ensured the day was a huge success and our cultural guide Craig shared his culture openly. The rock art was anazing. This experience will last with me forever!

This is the best tour to Arnhem land! The price and the quality are very good. Our guides Tim and Shaun were both great! They promised to send an sms the night before the tour with our pick up time and it came indeed with all the instructions. I was so happy, because we had some bad experiences with two other tour operators for aboriginal cultural tours in NT. These guys are the best! Transfer, permit, breakfast tea and lunch were included, which is great. Lunch was actually very tasty. Also they gave us ice cold towels after coming down the Injalak hill which was totally unexpected and such a nice touch. The tour was amazing. I felt very privileged to participate and to be on Arnhem land. Injalak hill was magical and rock art we saw will forever stay in my memory.

A huge thank you to Tim and to Craig for sharing the time with us in our first visit to Arnhem Land. After an early start (and excellent Bacon and Egg Roll en route) we had a comfortable drive to Jabiru and then a change of vehicle for the bumpier drive on the Arnhem Highway to Gunbalanya. It was fantastic to spend time with Tim to hear about his experience growing up in the Northern Territory and learn more about this amazing part of the country. A visit to the Northern Territory isn't complete without a trip to Arnhem Land especially with a local indigenous guide, in our case Craig. We were keen to see the Injalak Hill Rock Art and seeing it with Craig was a really special experience. We really appreciated his openness and ability to share the stories of his land and his ancestors. The Rock Art is incredible but it was the whole experience that day that was really memorable and gave us a much better understanding of life in Arnhem Land. All the best Tim, your ability to connect across cultures is really special and thanks for sharing with us.

If you want an authentic Arnhem land experience then this is hard to beat. Tim does a great job showing and explaining life up here. Sean our indigenous guide was friendly and happy to pass on his knowledge about all aspects of his homeland. He also has a good sense of humour.

There are not enough words to effectively describe what an incredible experience this was. Tim picked us up from our hotel in Darwin and we drove down to Jabiru then stopped off at Injalak Art Gallery for a look and also to collect our Aboriginal Guide Craig. Then off to Injalak Hill where we were held spellbound for the next few hours while Craig led us up the hill on a tour of the amazing rock paintings that have been there for many hundred and sometimes thousands of years. Craig gave us detailed insights into the meanings of the paintings and also the culture of his people. We were also very privileged to be allowed to visit the most sacred & spiritual area of the hill. The view from the top is nothing short of spectacular. Tim is a great tour host, friendly and happy to have a chat, a laugh, and impart his knowledge on the areas we went through on the journey down, and he made us a darn good lunch as well! We absolutely loved this trip and everyone visiting up here should do it. If I could give it a thousand stars I would!

An absolutely brilliant experience from the moment I was picked up until I was dropped off. Tim, the tour guide, was wonderful ensuring the experience wasn’t ruined by time constraints. This meant we were able to enjoy everything and not worry we were moving onto something else before we were ready. Being guided by Shaun up Injalak hill was so special and the stories he told were both wonderful and disturbing and we climbed up during a controlled burn, in no danger whatsoever. Sadly the arts centre was closed (Kings birthday!) but the Art around the building was sensational. A lot of driving, but this really didn’t matter…I had never been to Kakadu or Arnhem land before so was in awe of everything I saw. Don’t miss this tour…it’s wonderful…..and lunch was delicious too especially sitting looking over the land below us.

I went on the tour on 3rd of June and I had an awesome experience. Tim was absolutely fantastic and made me feel extremely welcome and went out of he's way to provide a once in a Life experience. The Aboriginal guide Shaun was unreal and provided an amazing and exceptional tour of his homeland. The total experience moved me deeply. I highly recommend this tour to everyone it's highly unique and life changing. Thanks Tim .

What an amazing day with Tim and Shaun on Country in Arnhem Land. Well organised and great communication from the outset. Plenty of stops along the way. As an Aboriginal person, as soon as we got to community I could see the connection and respect between Tim and the Traditional Owners. You can't fake that stuff. Shaun, our Traditional Owner guide, was amazing, sharing stories and information about his Cultural, Country and life. If you want a REAL cultural experience in the NT, this is for you. Big love Tim and Shaun, until next time my brothers, stay strong 👊💪
