Eintägige Abenteuer im Litchfield Park + Berry Springs

We had had a really fabulous day with Aaron. He was a perfect guide, knowledgeable and informative and considerate. And he didn't talk too much. Lunch was delicious. Company was excellent. Waterholes were to be remembered for ever. Highly recommend this tour.

This is a great tour and highly recommended. Aaron was a great driver/guide and was knowledgeable, friendly, and a careful driver. We saw a lot of Litchfield National Park in a short time including swimming in waterfall plunge pools and seeing a lot of wildlife. Well worth your time if in Darwin on a cruise, especially if you want to get a taste of the NT outside of the city. One major plus is we were picked up just outside the cruise terminal so no need to take the expensive shuttle into town.

Tour to the Litchfield National Park with the “Litchfield Park Adventures” was memorable. Tour included visits to many major water falls. First to Berry springs which had a beautiful weir like low cascade where we had our first plunge, then to Florence falls and Wangi falls at the later we were able to take our second plunge, thereafter to Buley rock hole area where we finally took another dip on the moderately flowing creek just before it cascaded into a pool which too was a popular plunge pool. En route to Buley Rock holes we were shown the Shady Creek which was a shallow stream calmly flowing under vegetation giving it plenty of shade. With the mid-day heat each of the dips revitalised us and it was real fun to be in cool spring water pools. Tour operator had provided ample number of pool noodles for floating. The coach had chilled drinking water to refill whenever we needed. After our second dip at Wangi falls it was time for the picnic lunch that was laid down by our guide “Aaron” in the picnic area. Picnic lunch comprised of a good spread of food items and we enjoyed the wraps and the fillings very much. At each of the places we visited, Aaron gave a fair description of what we were seeing and at times he stopped the coach on wayside to show us various things. Once it was to show us a flower having an orange yellow colour which was identified as a Grevillea pteridifolia carrying abundant amount of fragrant and sweet nectar, then at the park entrance to show the giant Cathedral Termite Mound and next to it to show us some Turkey Bushes bearing pinkish red blooms with its leaves having a strong smell and supposed to have the potential to repel insects. The Cardinal termite mound was an active mound where the termites were seen repairing a small damage that has occurred to its outer structure. Where the termites were active, it had a gummy substance appearing on the surface which was having a Vanilla like smell. We were shown the Bush Cabbage, the beautiful Pandanus spiralis where the leaves were attached spirally and the Sandpaper tree leaves. It was amazing to see and learn about Magnetic termites and their mounds. We received a lot of information about all the things we were shown and we enjoyed the entire tour being with very jovial, entertaining and extremely caring driver guide “Aaron”.
