1 Day Litchfield National Park Tour from Darwin Itinerary

Discover the beauty and abundance of wildlife in Northern Australia with our Litchfield Day Tour. Throughout the day you’ll get to explore a whole host of different landscapes, from dense bush to low valleys, and incredible swimming spots , all whilst learning about the history and culture of Litchfield National Park . Our itinerary is jam-packed full of outdoor adventures and there’s plenty of wildlife encounters to be had.

We start the day by heading to the Adelaide River , where you’ll have the option to get up close and personal with saltwater crocodiles on a Jumping Crocodile Cruise . Cruise around observing the local crocs in their natural habitat and be amazed at their strength and size when they jump out of the water for a meaty snack. Alternatively, we’ll head to the Fogg Dam Conservation Centre where we can view a range of native wildlife that call the wetlands home. After making the most of this once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunity we’ll dive straight into the beautiful scenery of the Litchfield National Park.

On the way, we’ll stop to check out the fascinating Cathedral Termite Mounds . These incredible feats of nature are unique to Northern Australia, and the termites that reside in them are some of the longest living insects on the entire planet. Seeing the 100-year-old structures with your own eyes is a mesmerising experience, and our local guide will impart knowledge and histories of these weird and wonderful creatures. The mighty towers provide a cool home for termites and great photo opportunities for us!

Once we’ve arrived in Litchfield, you’ll have the chance to cool off at one of the area’s famous plunge pools, Buley Rockhole or Wangi Falls , the perfect place to catch your breath and chill out with new-found friends. Enveloped by the lush green canopy of tall trees, you can splash around at the base of the waterfall and soak up the natural scenery.

From there we’ll take a picturesque stroll through the jaw-dropping landscapes of Litchfield, past soaring cliff-faces, alongside green-carpeted valleys, and to the incredible lookout point over Tolmer Falls or Florence Falls . To get there, we’ll take a short bushwalk set against the soundtrack of chirping, colourful birds.

After a jam-packed day filled with lush landscapes and a whole host of Australian Wildlife, we’ll head back to Darwin before the sun sets.

Due to the unpredictable nature of the Top End, the tour itinerary is flexible and may not be exactly as described here. Your guide will take into account a range of factors including weather conditions, water levels and road access to plan a tour that will offer you the best experience in the area. However, some locations may be inaccessible when you travel due to circumstances beyond our control.

I took the Litchfield Day Tour with Rob and I truly had an incredible time! I was worried that since I went in the wet season there wouldn't be anything to see, but I was completely proven wrong when Rob took us to so many beautiful waterfalls and for a lovely swim in the river! Lunch was delicious and Ethical Adventures went out of their way to accommodate for a food allergy of mine as well. Thank you so much Rob and team, this tour was absolutely a highlight during my time in Darwin!

Had a great time exploring ,swimming in the waterfalls and walking through the Wetlands. What a relaxing, informative and fun day! Everything was taken care of by our guide Carl ( pick up at our motel, driving us to all the sights with an in depth commentary, providing snacks and lunch that was delicious and filling ). The tour was comprehensive, everyone receiving individual attention with the day running smoothly and professionally. Because it was a small group , there was flexibility in the tour program allowing individual interests to be met. I would highly recommend this tour knowing all requests will be met and by the knowledgable guides who are very capable in knowing their tour subject .. This allowed a very relaxed, educated, happy experience for all in the group to have a great day we will remember positively always.

Special thanks to Carl for our wonderful day. Carl is kindly and provided fascinating informed details of the area we visited. The swim and relax under the waterfall at Berry Springs , delicious lunch on the Wetlands quietly taking in the beauty and bird life together with the 240 M swim to and from the Wangi Falls will remain a highlight of my life . We’ve travelled a lot and the breathtaking tranquil beauty there was wonderful . You deserve a raise Carl ! 😀😀😀😀🐊😀😀😀

My wife and I had the most amazing enjoyable and educational day with Rob and our small group from young adults to the oldest (we are over 75). Rob took us to out of the way fantastic places at the best times so as to avoid crowds. His passion and extensive knowledge was awesome and kept us constantly interested. Rob also has a great sense of humour and is the best tour guide we have ever had.

Share unforgettable experiences with a tiny group of like-minded visitors—a taste of adventure in safety and comfort.

Litchfield Tour Highlights

• We’ll pick you up from your accommodation in a safe, comfortable, air-conditioned tour vehicle.
• You’ll discover magnificent scenery, fascinating pioneer heritage and a rich Aboriginal tradition.
• We’ll show you spiritually important waterfalls and stone country, ancient rainforest and unspoilt woodland, and their places in Aboriginal culture.
• In the dry season you’ll be exclusive visitors to our private land at beautiful Woolaning Spring.
• We’ll present beautifully prepared and freshly cooked wild-caught barramundi, crocodile and kangaroo for lunch.
• You’ll be refreshed swimming in clear, natural pools—out of the reach of crocodiles.
• You’ll take away a deeper understanding of Aboriginal life, its relationship to country and its place in modern society.
• You’ll be enriched by this unforgettable experience.

Litchfield Tour Itinerary

Pick up and return.

We’ll pick you up for your Litchfield tour in a comfortable, air-conditioned tour vehicle from your Darwin accommodation between 7:15 and 7:30 am (a bit later for suburban and outlying accommodation). We’ll return you to Darwin about 4:30 pm.

Finniss River Crossing

Back roads from Darwin take us to the Finniss River and beyond, into Tess’s family’s country. We’ll stretch our legs at this shady riverside stop and discover the resources available from this riverine environment. * During our tropical summer, from about December to May, road authorities often close the back road into Litchfield due to flooding at this crossing. When this occurs we will enter and leave Litchfield by the main road through the pretty town of Batchelor.

Bush resources

At various places we’ll demonstrate seasonal bush resources used by local Aboriginal people for thousands of years, and describe the relationship of Litchfield’s landscape features to local indigenous culture.

Termite mounds

You’ll learn about the many termites, primary herbivores of the Northern Territory, and the huge housing complexes they build. You’ll be amazed at how indigenous people use these industrious creatures and their homes.

Bamboo Creek Tin Mine

We know the Bamboo Creek* area as Marchinbar, an important place for our people. You’ll find out why and learn about the pioneering efforts of our ancestors at the old tin mine here.

* During our tropical summer, from about December to May, road authorities close the road into Bamboo Creek Tin Mine due to flooding. When this occurs we will instead visit Tolmer Falls, which is spectacular at this time of year.

Tolmer Falls

During our tropical summer we’ll take a short walk through Litchfield’s stone country to Tolmer Falls. The stone country comes alive at this time of year with a profusion of life and a gushing of water into Tolmer’s deep chasms.

* During the dry season the stone country around Tolmer Falls is very dry and hot. At this time of year we’ll instead visit the heritage-listed Bamboo Creek Tine Mine.

Woolaning Spring

You’ll be exclusive visitors to Tess’s family’s private land at beautiful Woolaning Spring*. We’ll enjoy a morning tea stop here in our little patch of rainforest by a crystal clear stream. You can take a therapeutic dip in the warm spring waters or explore the remains of Tess’s family’s sawmill camp.

* During our tropical summer, from about December to May, the track into Woolaning Spring is often too boggy to use. When this occurs we will have morning tea at a more accessible spot.

We’ll present a freshly cooked lunch of wildcaught barramundi, crocodile and kangaroo, in beautiful surroundings.

Wangi Falls

You’ll visit iconic Wangi Falls, its plunge pool a popular dry season swimming spot and a special place for indigenous women. Cool off with a swim* or explore the nearby lush rainforest, home to a variety of birds and restless fruit bats. For the keen there may be an opportunity for a more strenuous walk around and over the falls.

* When water levels rise to a pre-determined point d uring our tropical summer, from about December to May, park authorities close the Wangi Falls plunge pool to swimming due to strong currents and the potential for saltwater crocodiles to enter the plunge pool. Viewing the falls, however, and doing the walk around and over them, is safe and especially spectacular at this time of year.

Florence Falls

You’ll see stunning Florence Falls from the plateau-top lookout, a short walk from the car park. Keen swimmers can tackle the 135 stairs that lead down to the clear, refreshing waters of Florence’s stone-walled gorge and plunge pool. Easier walks allow swimming too, in the warmer waters above Florence Falls.

Back to Darwin

We’ll settle into the comfort of our air-conditioned vehicle to return to your hotel in time to catch the sunset over Darwin Harbour, markets and nightlife.

* For a really special way to cap off the day, package up and learn about the different traditions of saltwater Aboriginal people, the Larrakia, on a Sunset Dreaming cruise run by Sea Darwin on Darwin Harbour.

Litchfield Tours

Litchfield National Park is located just an hour’s drive from Darwin and is often described as the Northern Territories best kept secret. It is home to an abundance of beautiful waterholes and waterfalls where you can swim to your heart’s content.

Best of Litchfield National Park

The stunning Wangi and Florence Falls are the best known and most popular attractions within the park and are not to be missed on your adventure to Litchfield. This region of Australia is a little slice of heaven and a must visit when visiting the Northern Territory.

Not only is Litchfield home to an array of magnificent swimming locations, it also known for a number of other reasons. They include the giant termite mounds that can be found up to 2 metres tall, the Lost City, a collection of strange rock formations created through years of erosion, and of course awe-inspiring scenery as far as the eye can see.

Best Litchfield Day Tours from Darwin

The 1 Day Litchfield and Jumping Croc Cruise is an absolute adventure of a lifetime and leaves everyone who joins in awe of the natural scenery and infamous wildlife. You will witness the raw power of the largest reptiles in the world, as crocodiles jump out of the water to feast on the snack of the day- meat on a stick! You will be amazed at the size and strength of these crocodiles, being very careful to keep your hands inside the boat… After witnessing these mighty beasts in their natural habitat, it’s then on to a snake handling show, where you can get up close and personal with some of Australia’s most notorious creatures. The afternoon will be spent with a picnic lunch before heading deeper into the national park to swim in cascading waterfalls and crystal-clear freshwater holes.

The 1 Day Litchfield Safari is the perfect day trip from Darwin if you are short on time but still wish to see as much as possible. On your adventure you will see the famous Magnetic and Cathedral Termite Mounds, explore the beautiful waterfalls, spring-fed streams, and the rugged sandstone escarpments of Litchfield National Park. Spend the day swimming, hiking and admiring the unique landscapes before a BBQ lunch and a visit to the waterfalls of Buley Rockhole.

About Litchfield Park Tours

Litchfield national park.

Crystal-clear swimming holes and pleasant bushwalking trails make Litchfield National Park a favourite among Darwin locals. Located just an hour-and-a-half drive south, 100 kilometers southwest of Darwin, the park features diverse environments from rugged sandstone escarpments to perennial spring-fed streams, monsoon rainforest, magnetic termite mounds, waterfalls and historic ruins.

Visitors to Litchfield Park will find several short trails that pass through a range of habitats and landscapes that are typical of the Top End. For the experienced, fit and well prepared bushwalkers, the multi-day Tabletop Track circuit offers the opportunity to experience the isolation of the Top End.

One of Litchfield National Park's most famous and unique sights is the hundreds of magnetic termite mounds standing up to two metres high. The mounds’ thin edges point north-south minimising their exposure to the sun, keeping the mounds cool for the termites inside.

Litchfield features walkways and information centres at each major point of interest throughout the park. A Ranger Station is located at Batchelor and Walker Creek. Most areas have an Emergency Call Device, toilet facilities and disabled access.

You can spend as little as one day in the park, taking a quick dip in each of the plunge pools and rockholes on the drive through, but to really experience the true beauty of Litchfield it’s best to stay at least two days.

Seasonal Considerations Water levels in Litchfield National Park can vary depending on the season and rainfall. During the wet season (November to April), the area may be subject to flooding and potential closures. Before planning a visit, it's best to check the latest conditions with the park authorities.

3 Day Kakadu & Litchfield Tour Itinerary

Get to know the Top End with our 3-day Outback 4WD adventure through Kakadu and Litchfield National Parks. We’ll explore the top waterfalls and swimming holes in the area, spot wildlife, learn more about the Aboriginal culture and spend the night camping under the incredible starry night sky.

Day One (lunch and dinner) The day starts early as we depart from Darwin, ready for our Top End adventure. Our first stop is the Mary River Wetlands Cruise, where you can observe the local wildlife in their natural habitat. The area is known for crocodiles, buffalo and around 250 species of bird, so see what you can spot as you cruise down the river.

Back on land, we enter Kakadu National Park and stop for lunch at a picturesque spot on the South Alligator River. We then journey deeper into the park to arrive at Ubirr Rock, an important Aboriginal rock art site. Here your guide will interpret the ancient paintings and tell the stories of the Dreamtime. While we are here, we take the opportunity to admire the spectacular views from the Nadab Lookout, over the vast floodplains below and all the way into Arnhem Land. We set up camp at our private campsite nearby, where we enjoy dinner and relax in the peaceful natural surrounds.

Day Two (breakfast, lunch and dinner) As you awake to the sounds of the bush, get ready for a day of adventure through Kakadu National Park. We make the journey to our first stop for the day, Twin Falls, going off-road before taking a boat shuttle and short hike to reach the tranquil swimming spot. In the afternoon, we travel to Jim Jim Falls, where we do another short hike to the waterhole. Relax on the large boulders, swim in the refreshing clear water or chill out on the small sandy beach. Then it’s time to say goodbye to Kakadu as we travel to Litchfield National Park, where we set up camp for the night.

Day Three (breakfast and lunch) We spend our final day discovering the stunning waterholes and rugged landscapes of Litchfield National Park. Hike the bush tracks around Florence and Wangi Falls or take a refreshing dip in the clear waters of the swimming holes. Explore the multiple cascades and rock pools of Buley Holes before we stop to admire the weird and wonderful termite mounds. In the evening, it’s time to head back to Darwin.

Our commitment

At Autopia Tours, we actively promote the protection of flora and fauna on our Darwin Top End Tours. It is our duty to ensure there is minimal disturbance to this World  Heritage Listed region and the species that call it home. Cultural sensitivity and respect for the traditional owners should also be shown at all times.

Part of our responsibility is educating guests on minimal impact practices and the importance of ensuring the safety of wildlife and the environmental sustainability of the destinations we visit.

Learn more about EcoTourism: https://www.ecotourism.org.au/

Traditional Owners

Autopia Tours would like to begin by paying our respects to the traditional owners of this country, with specific acknowledgement to the Wurundjeri people. Please be conscious and respectful of the sensitivities of indigenous culture and the spiritual connection they have with the land at all times.

Wildlife Encounters

The natural behaviours of wildlife are to be respected and not interfered with. When viewing wildlife, people should take care to avoid rapid or sudden movements, which could frighten the animal, and should keep noise to a minimum and refrain from touching, petting or feeding all wildlife including birds. Contact with people can introduce diseases to wildlife and can cause them to become aggressive.

Wildlife should not be handled or fed, unless by certified wildlife handlers. Feeding wildlife can alter their natural foraging behaviour and can lead to disease or illness through contact with people and the introduction of foods that are harmful to their digestive system. Feeding wildlife can also cause them to become aggressive toward people.

Wildlife that appears to be in distress, injured or in danger should be reported immediately to the appropriate authority, such as your Guide/Tour Leader, a National Park Ranger or Visitor Centre Staff.

Protecting our National Parks

People should remain on designated walking tracks, behind safety barriers/fences and follow all directions given by the guide/tour leader. Venturing off these can alter fragile ecosystems and can harm wildlife shelters and native vegetation. There are other dangers to be aware of too, such as cliff edges, unstable rock formations, overhanging tree branches and slippery ground cover. Remaining on tracks ensures safe visitation for guests and the environment.

No flora or fauna should be removed from their natural setting. This includes dead wood, fallen leaves, flowers and so forth, as they form part of the ecosystem of the region and their removal could cause a disturbance.

Waste Management

All buses are fitted with waste bins. No organic waste should be disposed of onto the ground. Although organic, items such as banana peels, apple cores, bread and other food scraps, are not natural/native to the region and can introduce pest species, diseases or harm to wildlife if found and eaten. We recommend all passengers bring a water bottle with you on our Grampians Tour. Purchasing bottled water contributes large amounts of plastic into the landfill. Therefore, we ask guests to bring their own bottle, as there is access to water refill stations available on our vehicles. Please ensure you stay hydrated throughout the tour to reduce the risk of sun exposure and dehydration.

All our guides carry a current Level 2 First Aid certificate. Please report any accident or illness to your tour guide. We recommend anyone with an existing medical condition to carry their medication with them on tour and to notify their tour guide at the beginning of the tour.

If you are a smoker! We ask you to refrain from smoking whilst in the company of other passengers and limit it to designated smoking areas. Smoking is not permitted on any of our vehicles, or in any type of accommodation including permanent campsites. We make frequent ‘comfort stops’ to allow free time for guests but cannot guaranteed smoke breaks. Please ensure you dispose of your cigarette butt responsibly and appropriately.

Child policy for this tour is 6 years old and over, due to the nature of this tour, it’s not suitable for infants or children 5 years and under. Children must be supervised at all times and guests are to keep to the marked tracks and designated visitor areas.

Is lunch provided on this tour?

Meals are not provided on this tour. We believe it is important for our trips to support the local economy, so guests are given the opportunity to purchase lunch at Lil’Ripper Cafe in Batchelor on our way through to the Litchfield National Park.  Alternatively, guests can bring their own food as we will have an eski onboard to keep items fresh. A water refill station is provided, we recommend you bring a 1.5-2L refillable water bottle.

Which waterfalls do we visit?

Itineraries may vary to adapt to seasonal changes and occasionally spots in the parks close or do not allow swimming. As safety is our top priority we plan our trips accordingly to ensure our guests have the most fun and best experience possible while on tour. We try to visit all the major waterfalls or plunge pools, such as Florence Falls, Buley Rockholes, Wangi Falls or Tolmer Falls.

How much luggage can I bring on tour?

We ask that guests travelling on day trips bring small day packs and hand luggage only as we have limited storage onboard our vehicles.

How many people are on this tour?

What happens if it rains, will the tour proceed?

In the event of rain or inclement weather, your travel experience will still go ahead, unless contacted by the provider. This tour would only be cancelled in extreme weather conditions, whereby it’s not safe to travel into Litchfield National Park. 

What is the temperature like in the Top End? 

The weather in the Northern Territory can fluctuate and be extreme. It is not unheard of for temperatures to reach over 40+ degrees Celsius in the dry season and in the evening the temperature drops dramatically. Please ensure you have checked the average temperatures for the time of year you are travelling and have packed adequate clothing.

Great trip with Danny. The waterholes are definitely worth visiting. If your interested in aboriginal culture Danny has a wealth of knowledge as she lives and works on the land. Thanks danny throughly enjoyed the Litchfield day tour and Kakadu tours with you.

I would highly recommend this tour. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Darwin. Swimming in beautiful natural waterholes & waterfalls in Litchfield National Park was a bucket list experience for me. Danny our tour guide had so much local knowledge to share about the area. She did everything she could to make sure we enjoyed our experience.

Had a spectacular day in Litchfield National Park today. Our tour guide was Adrienne and she was so informative and knowledgeable about the flora, fauna and indigenous culture of the area. Loved the termite mounds and the rock pools. Highlight was Wangi Waterfalls. I could not recommend this more highly. Exhausted by the end of the day but good tired!

Loved this tour. I would highly recommend and was definitly one of the highlights of our short trip to Darwin. Swimming in natural waterholes in Litchfield National Park was amazing. Emily was our tour guide. Although only new to the area/tours you would have never known as she was very knowledgeable, was passionate about the area and informative. Emily did everything to make use comfortable and ensure we enjoyed our Litchfield experience. Would definilty recommend this tour and guide.

Whilst we were very happy with our knowledgeable tour guide Emily, we were disappointed with this tour.I would estimate that we spent in excess of 7 hours driving and only 3 hours for pit stops and seeing the items of interest. The bus suspension was very uncomfortable for such a long days driving Fogg dam had nothing to show us except the lotus Lillies, we would have preferred to miss Fogg altogether and spend longer at the swimming spots . The small group was nice , probably due to it being the end of the season though.

Great tour with guide Beks. The wet season (Feb) group was small. Beks was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. There were many good stops so we were never in the bus for too long. The bus could have been more comfortable, though.

We did the tour on 9 February. Our guide was Becs. She was fantastic – very knowledgeable, personable and extremely obliging. Couldn’t have been happier with her. The trip was interesting, we were lucky to be able to swim in a pool and the Wangi waterfall in particular was amazing.

We went to Kakadu. It was an amazing experience from beginning to end.The entire staff, Norm, Gleeson and Yvonne were spectacular. They were incredibly informed, nothing was too much trouble , highly recommended.

Nola Grant - Google Review

Brilliant small group tour. Picked up out front off accommodation on time. Our guide Rick was funny, friendly and provided enough informative commentary without too much excess chatter. Sites included were fantastic, and tips on the waterfalls were spot on. Lunch was adequte in amount and lovely and fresh. The highlight was the Adelaide River tour. Pat our guide was a local through and through. We could have listened to him for hours. Would go again.

Helen Murphy - Google Review

I did the Kakadu Day Tour with friends - Neville is a wonderful tour guide who is knowledgeable, respectful, helpful, and funny. When I come back to the NT, I'll look to do the 3-day Kakadu tour through them.

History Of Litchfield

The Litchfield Council is a local government area in Northern Territory, based on the eastern and south-eastern outskirts of the Darwin-Palmerston area. The council was established by the Northern Territory Government on the 6th of September 1985. The original inhabitants of the Litchfield region were the Woolner, Larrakia and Djowei Aboriginal people. European settlers arrived in 1864. 

Litchfield is named after Frederick Henry Litchfield, who, alongside William Patrick Auld, was a member of a settlement and survey party who were tasked with exploring areas of the NT, from Escape Cliffs in Van Diemen Gulf to the Daly River.

Today, Litchfield has over 8,000 rateable properties, 614 kilometres of sealed roads, 109 kilometres of unsealed roads and 7 kilometres of dedicated bike paths. At Litchfield VIP Tours, we provide group and private tours from Darwin to Litchfield National Park.
