Kakadu National Park (Australia) Reviews
Newest Review: ... particularly enormous beast. Apparently crocodiles jump naturally for their food as birds in particular tend to try and fly off when they spot a crocodile's open jaws moving in their direction. They are amazingly fast for their size and jump out so that only their tails are still in the water supporting their weight. The crocs in this river now know that boat engines mean food and do tend to come to the boat which helps the tour ensure they usually see at least one croc jumping. Conservationists criticise the idea of this tour as they consider it is feeding wild animals and making the crocs lazy about hunting their own food. Others crit... more

KAKADU NATIONAL PARK WHERE IS KAKADU NATIONAL PARK? The Kakadu National Park is a UNESCO world heritage site in the Northern Territory and became most well known for being 'Crocodile Dundee' country from the film with Paul Hogan as the famous Mick Dundee. It has a tropical climate with an obvious rainy season in the Australian summer. The rainy season can bring huge floods and at times some areas are impassable by road. The park covers an area about half the size of Switzerland.

Kakadu National Park is a World Heritage site, jointly managed by The Department of Environment & Heritage and it's traditional Aboriginal owners.

Although I didn't see a fraction of them, the ones we did come across were pretty impressive and sometimes downright frightening.

Whilst in the Northern Territory in June 2000, we decided to visit Kakadu National Park. We decided to only have a day trip as our time in Darwin was limited, and we felt that was a reasonable compromise. The almost empty coach picked us up in the early hours of the morning (7 or 8 as I recall). The driver was very pleasant and knew a lot about the countryside around us. The coach was air conditioned although we were asked not to use the toilets as there would be plenty of opportunities off of the bus. On the way, we stopped off at a local Café, which sold snack foods and drinks. As it was warm, this provided the perfect opportunity to stock up on cold liquid ... Read the complete review
