Itinerary

Exact itineraries vary depending on the tour type. 

Morning: After being picked up from your hotel in Darwin, we travel south along the Stuart Highway towards Litchfield National Park. As you enter the park, you’ll get your first glimpse of the impressive magnetic termite mounds. Our guides will explain the ecological value of the termites and the formation of these unique mounds. We then visit the Wangi Falls. Here you will have your first opportunity to swim in the clear waters of the Northern Territory*. Alternatively, you can explore the 800-metre circular trail through the surrounding monsoon forest. (*Swimming and hiking depending on seasonal conditions)

Lunch: For lunch, we enjoy a freshly prepared picnic in a peaceful, shady bush setting. We then continue through indigenous bushland to Florence Falls, another picturesque waterfall and plunge pool, where you can explore nature on guided walks. Afterwards, the cascading Buley Rockhole awaits you for another refreshing dip.

Afternoon: The last activity of the day is a private crocodile cruise on the expansive Adelaide River. Our wildlife expert Pat will give you exciting insights into the lives of crocodiles and other native animals that can be observed here in their natural habitat.

Evening: After an eventful day, we return to Darwin, accompanied by the opportunity to spot more wildlife such as wallabies, monitor lizards and collared lizards. The region is also home to numerous bird species, including brolgas and jabirus, which enrich the tropical outback.

Campsites offer you comfort: electricity, showers, kitchens and often a nice community atmosphere.
🚐 Freedom camping is ideal for anyone who likes to travel independently and inexpensively – but beware: overnight stays are only permitted in designated areas and vary from state to state.

We recommend a good combination of both in order to travel flexibly and relaxed.

👉 You can find all the tips and information on how free camping works legally, safely and stress-free in our blog:

Australia is a popular travel destination – especially during the school vacations, in summer (Dec-Feb) and spring (Sep-Nov) it can quickly become scarce. We recommend this especially for routes with one-way rentals or special camper models:

🕒 The earlier the better – 6+ months in advance is ideal
In the short term, many providers may already be fully booked or only more expensive options may be available.

👉 You can find more tips on the best time to book in our blog article:
What you should book well in advance – your Australian adventure

The battery life depends on the type of vehicle and how it is used. On average, the following applies:

1-3 nights self-sufficient – then the vehicle should be reconnected to the power grid (e.g. at a campsite).

🚐 Important to know:
The on-board battery is only fully recharged while driving (slightly) or when connected to the mains.

☀️ Some campers also have a solar panel that supports the battery when parked – ideal for short stops without a power connection. Nevertheless, we recommend:
🔌 Connect to the mains every 2-3 nights – to ensure that the fridge, lights etc. run smoothly.

🚐 With a standard camper (2WD), you may only drive on paved roads.
This means: paved roads or partially well-maintained access roads to official campsites or tourist attractions (depending on the provider).

🌄 O nly with a 4WD camper are you allowed to deviate from paved roads and drive on gravel or off-road routes.
But be careful:
For certain routes (e.g. Gibb River Road, Oodnadatta Track, Cape Leveque Road), written permission from the rental company is often required – and not all providers allow beach drives or river crossings.

💬 O ur tip: If you’re planning an off-road adventure, just let us know – we’ll tell you which routes are permitted and which campers are suitable.

💳 Yes, a credit card is required to collect the vehicle.

Even if you can pay for your booking with Ausventure Travel conveniently by credit card or bank transfer, all rental companies require a valid credit card on collection.

This is required in order to:

  • pre-authorize the deposit (liability sum)(depending on the insurance package selected),
  • to charge any additional fees such as tolls, fines or fuel costs retrospectively.

💡 Tip: A prepaid credit card or debit card is not accepted in most cases. Make sure that your credit card is valid at the time of collection and has a sufficient limit.
