Selfdrive Routes in Australia

Starting in Darwin

We have put together some popular and most interesting selfdrive ideas, starting in Darwin. You do your own driving but enjoy the security of the pre-booked accommodation. We can also modify according to your needs. If you require something completely different, please remember that we can still help you pre-plan your own personalized itinerary (ask for a quotation). All itineraries can be done in reverse.

Beside these selfdrives, we have created the following selfdrive around Darwin.

Top End Discovery (4 Days / 3 Nights / 2WD)

If we are booking your accommodation in Darwin before your self-drive, we will arrange to have your car delivered to your hotel.

Day 1 Arrive Darwin Enjoy a day in Darwin before departing on your journey. Overnight: All Seasons Frontier Darwin Hotel.

Day 2 Darwin to Kakadu NP (209 km) (130 mi) An early departure this morning to Kakadu National Park. We suggest a stop at Fogg Dam, Ubirr Rock and Nourlangie Rock. Overnight: Frontier Kakadu Village.

Day 3 Kakadu to Katherine (296 km) (184 mi) Travel south to Katherine. Why not stop along the way at Cooinda and go on a lagoon cruise through Yellow Waters Billabong. Arrive in Katherine in the afternoon. We suggest a look around the township of Katherine and perhaps a cruise through Katherine Gorge. Overnight: Katherine Frontier Hotel.

Day 4 Katherine to Darwin via Litchfield National Park (420 km) (261 mi) Yet another early start this morning. Depart Katherine for Litchfield Park where Wangi Falls is worth a look - perhaps a swim if it takes your fancy! Take the Stuart Highway and drive direct to Darwin to return your car.
