What you can expect

Embrace an authentic Australian outback experience and learn some survival skills along the way with Wildlife Ambassador and Survival Expert, Andrew Ucles in the Northern Territory. Become part of the adventure as you leave Darwin at 7am and enjoy a journey into Australian Outback. Immerse yourself in the wonderland of the floodplains located near Finniss River, an extraordinary corner of the Top End.

From close encounters and a crocodile feeding to a survival training session, wild boar spotting and Indigenous game preparation the morning is jammed packed full of adventure. In the afternoon, the pace slows down a little with chef prepared lunch and the opportunity to take a refreshing dip in the outback plunge pool at Finniss River before a return transfer back to Darwin.
