Northern Territory
Steeped in Indigenous history and Aboriginal culture, the Northern Territory is as vast, dry and desolate as the Australian outback gets. Equivalent in size to France, Italy and Spain combined, the Northern Territory is blessed with a variety of natural landscapes. Some of the Northern Territory's iconic wonders include the World Heritage-listed National Parks Kakadu and Uluru-Kata Tjuta (Ayers Rock).
Use the Northern Territory capital city Darwin as your base, see the Olgas, breathtaking Ayers Rock, awesome aboriginal cave art and the diverse flora and fauna from red cabbage palms, monsoon vine forests and lotus lilies to agile rock wallabies, fearsome saltwater crocodiles and the elegant dancing brolga.
Indigenous culture holds a spiritual connection to the land that dates back tens of thousands of years, yet can still be shared in the present day - through a walk in the desert in search of bush tucker or a visit to an ancient rock art gallery, or sitting in on a story telling session. The Northern Territory is renowned for its colourful, larger-than-life characters, who are only too willing to share a yarn or two.
A laksa at Darwin's exotic Mindil Beach Sunset Markets, a spectacular outback view seen on an ambling camel ride, the indescribable feeling of catching your first barra ' there's an experience for everyone in the Northern Territory.
