Frequently Asked Questions

The Operator recommends bringing a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, swimwear (under clothes), protective clothing, insect repellant, a towel, drinking water, and comfortable shoes for walking.

There is a walking of approx. 80m during the tour to view the Jawoyn RockArt (each way). This is made up of stairs (with handrails) and uneven surfaces. Please wear appropriate footwear and be aware of your surroundings all the time. Additional walking may be required to access seasonal swimming locations along rocky, natural paths. This tour is not suitable for guests with mobility issues.

Toilet facilities are available onboard the vessels but are limited, so the Operator does advise using the bathroom before joining the tour.

Nitmiluk National Park is a 3.5hr drive from Darwin. Simply head down the Stuart Highway until you reach Katherine. Heading along Gorge Rd, Nitmiluk National Park is located 30mins out of Katherine. There is car parking available onsite.
