Tours & activities

Hand-picked GetYourGuide products for Kakadu — Darwin coach days, rock-art and wildlife days, Jabiru / Darwin scenic flights, and multi-day Kakadu + Litchfield or Katherine circuits. Tours help when you want transport and timing handled; they do not replace the Access Report, park pass, heat or crocodile signs. Always check inclusions and cancellations on the product page. Jim Jim and Twin Falls are closed for all of 2026 — skip any itinerary that treats them as open.

GetYourGuide links are affiliate when partner tracking is configured (may earn a commission at no extra cost to you). Park passes, official camping and walk permits are never affiliated — use kakadu.gov.au and the Access Report. See affiliate disclosure.
