There is a reason that this unique and simply breathtaking Kakadu National Park is world-famous. With almost 20,000 square km of diverse terrain encompassing wetlands, ancient woodlands, and stunning and age-old rock formations, not to mention being home to a third of Australia's bird species and a fifth of its mammal species, there is nowhere else on earth to experience the true wonder of nature quite like Kakadu. On this One-day Kakadu Wilderness tour, prepare to discover a deep connection to the environment as you travel to the lands of the Bininj and Mungguy People. Their continued management of this park in association with Parks Australia is the key to why this region thrives and supports unparalleled wildlife and ecosystems.

Running on a fault line, this straight river is a haven for native species. Here we visit the beautiful King Cascade, a terraced waterfall. Falling from a considerable height and around 50m across, water tumbles down a staggered terrace of Kimberley sandstone, surrounded by grasses, mosses, and ferns. See the National Heritage Listed 'Mermaid Tree' at Careening Bay. It still bears the name carved by the carpenter of Phillip Parker King's ship HMC Mermaid when the ship was repaired here in 1820.

Montgomery Reef is a biologically diverse area covering over 300sqkm. Twice daily, as the sea recedes in mammoth tides, Montgomery Reef rises from the ocean in a cascade of rushing water, revealing a flat-topped reef. Opportunistic birds take advantage of the marine life left exposed in rock pools, while turtles and larger marine life may also be spotted. Get up close to witness the spectacle, as our Expedition Team share their knowledge on the reef and wildlife that surrounds you.

Due to the mammoth tides for which the Kimberley is renowned, the Horizontal Falls are created as the ocean thunders through a narrow gorge in the McLarty Ranges. As the tide changes, water is forcibly pushed through the bottleneck, creating a rushing horizontal waterfall of swiftly flowing seawater. Experience a heart-pumping ride through the rapids aboard our Zodiacs. Talbot Bay is at the heart of the Buccaneer Archipelago, where rocks on the 800 or so islands are estimated at over 2 billion years old. At Cyclone Creek, you will see evidence of massive geological forces in the impressive rock formations and cruise through the Iron Islands, past Koolan Island, before enjoying sunset drinks at Nares Point.
