Kakadu 2026 Calendar of Events

Tom, our guide was excellent and very aware of his groups comfort. Super knowledgeable making the day perfect. The crocodile cruise was well worth it. Kakadu is beautiful, a definite must do experience

Tim was a great driver and host, he had a very broad knowledge of of everything and explained it very well

Wow, what an amazing experience we had! From the moment we arrived staff looked after us and pilot James was very knowledgeable and engaging throughout whole flight. Spectacular scenery and fascinating history. Would recommend to everyone.

This tour was fantastic. We were so happy that we got to see the NT with Offroad Dreaming, we definitively would not have had the same amazing experience if we had tried to follow the same itinary on our own. The team were so lovely to work with, from the initial booking, to pickup, meals, equipment etc. everything was executed professionally and confidently yet also with a level of care and friendliness. We were very fortunate to have Nev and Steffi as our guides during our five day adventure, Nev’s knowledges of the region was quite incredible about the aboriginal art sites, the local birds, tress, fauna and of course crocodile stories was definitely an added bonus and it is this detail that you would not get travelling without these guys. We went to bed in our tent each night feeling happy with full bellies, excited for what the next day would bring. I would highly recommend this tour and Offroad Dreaming, so much so that they will be who we choose when it comes to visiting the Kimberley's. Thank you so much team we are forever grateful for the amazing experience. Karen and David NSW, September 2026.

Excellent experience with plenty of crocs and other wildlife. Dennis provided informative, educational and entertaining commentary throughout the trip. Outstanding, thanks.

We did the 6.45am cruise & it was an excellent choice. Many crocs seen one caught a bug catfish in front of us. Plenty of waterbirds as well as in trees Wedgetail eagle, a couple of Sea Eagles, Blue kingfisher. The morning was ideal and perfect in every way. Our boat driver tour guide did excellent job finding so many birds & crocs . Highly recommend this cruise is a MUST DO. Certainly could have done it again .

My partner and I have just enjoyed one of the most interesting and enjoyable holiday tours of our lives. We went with Neville and staff of OffRoad Dreaming to Kakadu, Katherine/Nitmiluk and the Litchfield National Park. The five day camping tour was full-on, but well planned. We saw and experienced an enormous range of flora, fauna and First Nations culture and rock art. Neville’s knowledge is only exceeded by his love of his subject. And he needs no lessons in catering, his Barramundi was better than Darwin restaurants! The countyside was stunning and the rock pool swimming holes heaven. Can’t recommend it enough. It will take weeks to absorb all that we have seen and experienced. Thank you Neville and Steffi. Richard & Vivienne.

The entire crew and the pilot were very nice. The pilot explained a lot. The landscape is unique and truly worth seeing. A great and positive experience. Thanks

Tim, the tour operator, was a great guy and very responsive and Shawn, the local aboriginal guide was super impressive. The visit to Injalak Hill was amazing, with incredible rock art. We also stopped at the Gunbalaya art center which was very small and local. Overall, wonderful introduction to aboriginal culture.

We had an amazing day doing this tour. Our guide, Glenn, made it an awesome trip by sharing his knowledge and passion for the region. We had two great swims in picturesque locations.

Megan was a fabulous, knowledgeable guide and we loved the waterfall she took us to for a swim. Great morning tea and lunch, a good look at Kakadu, and the swimming was magic!!

We had a brilliant day in Arnhem Land with Tim from Top End Day Tours and our indigenous guide Craig from the Gunbalanyah community. Once we arrived at the foot of Injalak Hill, Craig led the way, stopping frequently for us to view the remarkable rock art and the glorious views across the countryside. Craig was happy to answer all of our questions. He learned the stories of the paintings and the lore of the Bininj people from his visits to the hill with his elders as a boy, and he felt a responsibility to pass on the stories and explain the lore of his people. He brought us to a sheltered lunch spot that afforded glorious views across the billabong to Gunbalanyah and the floodplains beyond. We were constantly within metres of some of the finest examples of rock art in Australia - an experience not to be missed. Tim made sure we were well fed and had plenty of water available. His relationship with local guides like Craig ensures that visitors will get maximum value from their time on Injalak Hill

The experience was amazing. Our tour guide Betty was very informative and professional. It was an easy walk to Maguk Falls. The waterfall was great and the water temperature was just perfect. Will definitely consider book another tour in the future.

Amazing experience made even more fabulous by our wonderful tour guide, Betty. Not only was she very knowledgeable about country and culture, she was a delight to talk to and her enthusiasm and passion for her job was infectious. Felt very safe returning in the dark with Betty at the wheel.

Fantastic day. Our guide Tom was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. We learnt so much about NT in just one day.

We have always wanted to experience a visit to the spiritual place that is, Kakadu National Park. Tom, was our tour guide for the day. What an amazingly talented and passionate person! Tom kept us informed about the history of this sacred place and told some very interesting stories along the way. It was a long day but Tom made it interesting, fun and interactive. He was very generous with his time and allowed us time to take photos, ask questions and climb down steep rocks after viewing the summit! We also met some lovely people on the bus tour from other parts of Australia, New Zealand, Asia and Europe. We would highly recommend this tour. If you are lucky enough to have Tom as your guide, you will have an amazing experience.
