When in Sydney, we climb the Bridge, cruise the Harbour, go to the Zoo, visit the Blue Mountains.
In Melbourne, we see sport, dine on Lygon Street, take in a show.

The Gold Coast makes us feel young at heart again at the theme parks or raging through the night.
Far North Queensland is not complete until we have snorkelled the reef or walked a rainforest.

So why is it many people expect to see KAKADU by simply peering out a car window?

Kakadu is the complex integration of masses of wildlife, entwined through a huge and vastly diversified landscape, the rich homelands of Aboriginal occupancy over many thousands of years.
ducks2.jpgVisitors need to seek out the heart of Kakadu.
Plan your visit, read the pamphlets, take bush walks, attend ranger talks and slide shows, visit Bowali and Warradjan.
Take a cruise - flight - tour.

Kakadu rewards most, those who explore her thoroughly!
