Kakadu has been on our ‘bucket list’ for many years, we thought what better way to begin summer holidays than to escape the cold weather and head to the Top End of Australia.

Kakadu has been on our ‘bucket list’ for many years, we thought what better way to begin summer holidays than to escape the cold weather and head to the Top End of Australia.
Its coming into that wonderful time of the season when major attractions are opening!
My wife and I visited Kakadu in January 2013, this was our third time there in the past three years.
We set off early afternoon from Gagudju Lodge Cooinda heading towards Gubara in search of the famous Leichhardt’s grasshopper that we had heard so much about!
Waking up in the Gagudju Crocodile Holiday Inn was a different experience this Christmas! The pillow menu made it hard for me to make it down to for breakfast!
🎆 Double the reason to celebrate Territory Day! 🌿
Today isn't just Territory Day… it's also the reopening of one of Kakadu's most iconic destinations – Gunlom Falls!
Whether you're celebrating Territory Day with family or planning your next Dry Season adventure, there's never been a better time to explore the Top End. Pack the 4WD, grab your swimmers and add Gunlom to your Territory bucket list! 💦
Happy Territory Day! ❤️💛🖤

Jim Jim Road is closed for upgrades in 2026 but trust us, Kakadu's list of must-sees didn't get any shorter.
Ancient rock art. Vast wetlands. Wildlife in full dry season form. A living culture 65,000 years in the making.
Hear from David on what's waiting for you this year.

The dry season brings clear skies, calm waterways, and wildlife that has to be seen to be believed. And if you'd rather leave the driving, the planning, and the navigation to someone who knows this country deeply, Deb at @ntdriverguide is your person.
Deb runs private, escorted 4WD tours into Kakadu tailored entirely around you - your pace, your interests, your group.
Deb's an accredited Aboriginal cultural guide with over 15 years of experience in the Top End, and her guests tend to leave saying they saw and understood a side of Kakadu they never would have found alone.
Day tours, multi-day experiences, accessible options - it's all on the table.
Visit ntdriverguide.com.au or drop them a message to start planning.
