Things to do in Katherine, Northern Territory & Full Guide

No visit to the Northern Territory is complete without visiting the spectacular Nitmiluk National Park (Katherine Gorge), a region of rugged beauty, history and culture with the breathtaking 'Nitmiluk Gorge' as the centrepiece. Cruise, canoe, walk, fly, swim or embrace the indigenous culture, Nitmiluk has it all. Nitmiluk Tours is 100 per cent indigenous owned and is the specialist agent offering a great variety of tours to explore the region.

This blog post was written in collaboration with the Northern Territory tourist board. All opinions remain my own.

Small towns (and the occasional city) are dotted along the […]

There’s nowhere on earth quite like Australia. I’d argue that no other country has quite the same diversity of terrain – which ranges from tropical rainforest, to barren outback, to alpine peaks – and makes for some pretty spectacular hikes, viewpoints and photo opportunities. Australia is renowned for its glorious beaches, but it also excels […]

Amazing Australian Outback Towns to Visit on an Aussie Road Trip

The Australian outback is one of the world’s last true wildernesses. It is a huge, desert terrain that stretches out over most of the country. It’s one of the globe’s most extreme climates, with temperatures topping 50 degrees Celsius, little rainfall, barren landscapes and plenty of red dirt. I find there to be something unexplainably […]

Climbing Uluru Debate: Why You Really Shouldn’t Do It

Once you’ve explored Australia’s great beaches, seen the Sydney Opera House and the laneways of Melbourne, and maybe done a west coast road trip, your sights will most probably move to the middle of the country. Uluru is synonymous with the outback, and  once you’ve been in the country for a few months you’ll have […]

The Gibb River Road: Driving Tips, What to Take and Where to Camp

The Gibb River Road feels a little like a fairytale; where else […]
