Northern Territory Towns and Airports List

Book jet charters to Darwin and experience a trip of a lifetime flying over the beautiful mosaic of the World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park and neighbouring Arnhem Land. The historic city in the far north peninsula of Australia is the gateway to the Australian Outback and is renowned for its indigenous culture and history, wildlife, national parks and rainforests.

Wildlife parks

While visiting the Northern Territory, don’t miss your chance to get up close and personal with the Territory’s diverse wildlife. Where else can you see crocodiles up close and personal (you know you want to!), see huge shoals of fish or visit wallabies, pelicans, goannas and other Australian wildlife and native birds in their natural habitat? Popular wildlife parks in Darwin include:

• Aquascene
• Crocodylus Park
• Crocosaurus Cove
• Darwin Wildlife Park
• Darwin Crocodile Farm
