Wonderful experience - Hired a car in Darwin to see the park during the rainy season. It’s an experience to visit at any time of the year and we really enjoyed it. Stayed in Jabiru and visited the wonderful rock art in the area. Nanguluwurr and Nourlangie are both fascinating. Jabiru as a town was pretty quiet but the Mercure Hotel provided a good base and restaurant for us.

Once in a Lifetime Experience - Incredible experience! Tim was knowledgeable, entertaining, and informative throughout the tour, A+ 10/10 guide! Everything was as advertised and described. It is a long and bouncy ride but well worth it. Rock art, breath taking landscapes, crocodiles, wallabies, birds, massive spiders, ants (shown to us safely by Tim), fun Aussie road houses with delicious food and drinks. If you've got a day in Darwin, must do! Too cool! Keep on rockin it!

A wonderful experience - We had an awesome day going to Kakadu with Becks. She is very knowledgeable, has a bright personality and made the day a lot of fun.
Kakadu is an amazing area and is well worth the trip.

Awesome Kakadu experience - My family and I did this tour in September and Daryl from Autopia was fantastic. He was super helpful and engaging. Kept us informed of what we were seeing, including wildlife and expert knowledge of the area - he really knows his stuff. He was very respectful of culture and the needs of our varied tour capabilities (small children, disabled/older persons) highly recommend this tour - some great sights, and experiences to be had! Be prepared for a true all day tour - it is a long day (ours was about 12 hours) but well worth the experience.

Kakadu in a day - Ubirr rock art and scenery from the top were to die for. Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve was well worth the trip, heaps of birds and some freshwater crops.

Disappointed- Guide saved it - I recently participated in a day tour to Kakadu National Park and found it to be quite expensive for the limited activities offered, especially considering that many parts of the park were closed during the off-season. We spent a significant amount of time on the bus without engaging in many activities, making the experience feel overpriced. In contrast, the Litchfield tour,provided a greater variety of activities and was more worthwhile for the same price, even during off season. Fortunately our incredible guide Dani saved it, as she made the most out of the only few things available and was extremely knowledgeable. The price of the tour should be realistically adjusted regarding the only few activities during off season.

Disappointing! - Our tour guide Daryll was very nice and motivated and told a lot of interesting things especially about the indigenous people and went to great lengths. He couldn’t help it that we are very disappointed with the tour. It's not exactly cheap and you should be able to expect more. In the description were various things we should have looked at and we also booked based on the photos we saw there, but everything was closed due to flood due to plane crash, etc. We booked ok in the offseason because we didn't know that much of it would be underwater. But the organizer knows that and should be fair enough not to offer these tours in the first place at this time of year, or if he realizes that he can't show people anything because everything is closed, cancel the tour and give people their money back. There was a plaque in the Visitor Center that had about 14 sites listed and only 3 of them open!
