Our Tour Reviews

Kakadu for 4

Greig and Alina’s planning and communication before the trip was spot on. We were able to devise our own itinerary with some fantastic suggestions from Greig. Our guide, Bronwyn had the most incredible knowledge of the history of Kakadu, the landscape, flora and fauna. We had 4 days of pure excitement and enjoyment. Strongly recommend Charter North company. Travelled on accommodated 4 Day Kakadu Tour in June 2022.

4 Day Charter North Kakadu experience

We are 2 couples in our 60s and have just returned from a 4 day Kakadu experience with tour leader Bronwyn. We highly recommend Charter North as everything was well organised, car was very well maintained and the excursions planned showed us the depth and breadth of Kakadu. From the moment we booked to the end of the tour we were treated with utmost respect with all requests or ideas catered for. Bronwyn’s knowledge was outstanding, particularly her termite knowledge! GT provided us with lots of information prior to the trip. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Travelled on 4 Day accommodated Kakadu Tour in June 2022.

3 Day Kakadu & Litchfield Tour

My husband and I had a fantastic time touring Kakadu and Litchfield with Greig who was very knowledgeable about the area and who has a fun personality. Really liked how Alina and Greig take pride in curating a personalized experience. Very much recommended! Travelled on 3 Day Kakadu & Litchfield Tour in April 2022.

3 day Kakadu and Litchfield tour – Wet Season

We arrived in Darwin at the end of March coinciding with the final part of the Wet. Most tour operations do not cater for tourists at this time of year but thankfully Charter North do. Our booking was handled seamlessly by Alina and even before the tour, suggestions were made to enhance our experience which we gladly took up. Unfortunately, snorkelling was no longer available on the itinerary due to tourism insurance canning the activity. However, Greig with his extensive knowledge of the Kakadu and Litchfield landscapes as well as his experience with the climate, served us up with an itinerary that satisfied our thirst for hiking, jaw-dropping scenery, cultural experience and looking at the unique flora and fauna of this rather special place. Overall, I was glad to have the chance to see these two great national parks when waterfalls are flowing and the land is green. Kudos to Greig and Alina.

Amazing Kakadu experience

We are a couple and took a 4 day private tour to Kakadu and we loved every minute! From the first enquiries we received all the information we were looking for and more. Alina answered every question we had and gave us great advice to prepare for the trip. GT took us on tour and his knowledge of the landscape and indigenous culture made the visit very interesting. We did learn a lot and had fun too. He took time to answer every question we had, while he takes care of you during the trekking. We did the visit during October, which is challenging due to the heat, but we were safe and relaxed since GT knew very well how to take us to each spot at the right pace, ensuring appropriate water and breaks to allow us to enjoy every attraction and view point we visited in the park. I’m not native in English and sometimes it is a challenge with the Aussie accent, especially in remote locations like this, but not with GT. We absolutely loved it and will book again to do the Kimberley tour. Thanks GT and Alina! Travelled on private 4 Day Kakadu Tour in October 2021.

Kakadu Safari

Our family of 5 had a wonderful experience exploring Kakadu National Park. Greig was a very professional, considerate and knowledgeable guide, very easy to talk to and drove our precious family around very safely. He knew so much about the wildlife, indigenous culture and country with all of us learning volumes. The car was comfortable and his cooking very tasty – the boys (all under 12) loved their pasta dish particularly! We would highly recommend a tour with Charter North 4WD Safaris.

Amazing, unforgettable experience!

This was an unforgettable experience! First of all, planning of the trip with Charter North was the first sign of the professionalism of this company – all our wishes were considered, questions answered, challenges explained – the list goes on and on. Our tour guide (referred to as GT, still not sure why not call him Greig 🙂 ) was very professional with unbelievable knowledge of absolutely everything related to the tour – and this was not limited to places we visited: he was able to answer absolutely every question (whether it was about the cultural heritage, wildlife, past/present/future of places like Kakadu park etc.). GT was taking care of us during the whole trip – whether it related to always timely lunch, trail choice or even things like avoiding dehydration – everything was catered for. And several times we thanked our choice of this company due to hidden treasures of Kakadu Park, let alone the challenging roads not every driver can cope with.

Most importantly – when you deal with people like the ones we met from Charter North – you want to see human beings, not just local area encyclopaedia (which they were, incidentally) and this was probably the most pleasant experience: great and informative stories, lots of laughter, truly friendly atmosphere: all of this made us all (a group of four people) think that the money was very well spent.

Well done, Charter North, hope we will still go through a yet unread chapter (no pun intended) of the NT book with you!

Gorgeous Kimberley

A huge thanks to GT and Alina. We had a wonderful time travelling Broome – Kununurra up the Gibb River Rd – including side trips to Derby, Wyndham and the incredible Bungle Bungles. Loved the bush camping, the gorges, seeing the stars, sunrises /sunsets and the special hidden places that GT shared with us – many times we had pristine bush/waterways just to ourselves – what a treat. The driving was first rate and GT’s knowledge detailed – not surprising given his many years guiding in these parts. Highly recommend Charter North and the adventure that is “The Kimberleys”.

Top End 6 day family private tour

Amazing experience! We are planning on booking again to do the Kimberley tour. We are a family of 4 with 2 primary school age children, we did the private tour 6day top end experience. The tour covered Kakadu, Edith Falls, Katherine Gorge and Litchfield; and our whole family thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. Our fabulous guide, GT, looked after us very well – he has an amazing knowledge of wildlife, culture as well as camping. And his cooking is delicious! We originally booked this tour to take advantage of a local guide’s knowledge, as well as have all the required equipment provided – however quickly realised and greatly appreciated how relaxing it can be when you have someone take care of all the camp set up, cooking and pack up (and we loved the percolater coffee in the morning)!! Even though this was an active camping holiday, we finished feeling relaxed as GT really looked after us. GT was also really lovely with our children, he was patient and kind and was always happy taking the time to answer their questions and teach them how to manage in the bush. We highly recommend this company.

Kakadu at its best!

We are a family of 5 and just completed a 3 night /4 day Kakadu 4WD tour with GT. It was an amazing adventure with an excellent guide. The food was of a high caliber and the camp settings beautiful. I would highly recommend this trip to any individual or family looking to see the real outback of Australia.

Brilliant Kimberley Knowledge

Best personal guided camping tour experience in the Kimberley. Experience, knowledge and capable adventure with the planning completed for us. Had the best time with my 2 adult children. Happily bonded with the other 3 tour members that experienced a lifetime adventure.

Best experience EVER

Our 4 day (3 night) Charter North camping trip in Kakadu was hands down THE BEST thing we have ever done as a family. We have 3 kids aged 4-10yrs old, and Dan took us to the most perfect locations for our family. We hiked, climbed and swam in picture perfect places, and Dan shared so much knowledge with us about everything from flowers and birds, to indigenous stories and art. The food was excellent and catered to our gluten-free family member also. We simply had the most fun time ever! Memories that will last a life time. Can’t thank Charter North & Dan enough for providing us with this experience.
