Planning a Kakadu Tour in 2027

If you’re planning a Kakadu tour in 2027, getting organised early can give you a better choice of tours, accommodation styles and departure dates.

Kakadu Tours & Travel is based in Jabiru, right in Kakadu National Park, and can help you compare the different ways to experience Kakadu, from day tours through to multi-day accommodated and camping tours.

There is no single Kakadu tour that suits everyone. Depending on how much time you have, your preferred level of comfort and the places you would like to visit, there are a number of different ways to experience Kakadu.

Options include:

• Kakadu Day Tours
• 2 Day Kakadu Tours
• 3 Day Kakadu Tours
• Accommodated Kakadu tours
• Camping and small-group tours
• Kakadu and Arnhem Land tours
• Kakadu, Katherine and Litchfield tours
• Scenic flights and cruises

Some tours concentrate entirely on Kakadu National Park, while others combine Kakadu with Arnhem Land, Nitmiluk (Katherine Gorge) or Litchfield National Park.

Why Plan Ahead?

Tour availability in the Top End is very seasonal, particularly during the popular Dry Season months.  Planning ahead gives you more time to compare departure dates, tour styles and the experiences you most want to include in your Kakadu holiday.

These may include:

• Yellow Water Billabong Cruise
• Aboriginal rock art at Burrungkuy (Nourlangie) and Ubirr
• Arnhem Land cultural experiences
• Kakadu wildlife and wetlands
• Scenic flights over Kakadu National Park
• Combining Kakadu with Katherine or Litchfield

How Long Should You Spend in Kakadu?

How long you need depends on what you would like to see and how you prefer to travel.

A day tour from Darwin can provide an introduction to some of Kakadu’s major highlights, while a two, three or four-day tour allows more time to explore different areas of the park and include additional experiences such as Arnhem Land, Katherine or Litchfield.

If you’re unsure which option would suit you, have a look through our Kakadu Tours or contact us for advice.
