Early Season Waterfall Tour in Kakadu

This is a full-day waterfall tour in Kakadu during the early season, when access can vary depending on conditions. The exact route is not fixed, so the day depends on what sites are open at the time and how capable the group is on foot. It suits travellers who are flexible and happy with a more active day rather than a set sightseeing itinerary. At AUD395, it is more of a guided nature day for people specifically keen on Kakadu waterfalls than a cheap add-on trip.

Expect a 7 to 8 hour day with the destination decided around current access and the group’s fitness level. Possible options mentioned include Gunlom, which involves 470 stairs one way, Boulder or Moline with easier walks, or Motorcar Falls and Boulder Creek with an 11km return walk. Because the plan can change, it is worth going in with realistic expectations and being prepared for anything from a relatively easy walk to a more demanding hike. A moderate fitness level is required, and this tour is not recommended for travellers with recent hip or knee problems, spinal injuries, poor cardiovascular health, or for pregnant travellers.
