“We had an amazing time during our trip, which was not just thanks to the beautiful locations but also due to our amazing guide Aron. He loves this country and every plant and animal on it and shared that with us while also providing plenty of information about Darwin and its human and non human inhabitants. We learned a lot and enjoyed great sceneries. The highlight was definitely the Florence waterfall, where we had a lot of time to swim.”

The waterfalls were beautiful, and jumping crocs were worth paying to see! I changed my plan and the company had phoned me within an hour when I’d emailed - very impressed. I’m a solo traveller and it was mostly couples but had a blast. Would strongly recommend.”
