There is also time available to explore the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory, whose collections encompass Aboriginal art, visual arts, and Northern Territory history and natural sciences. After thetour you will be dropped off in the city for a 45-minute break and opportunity to have lunch.
Then make your own way to the Transit Centre to join the Jumping Crocs & Nature Adventure. Just 60km from Darwin lies the Adelaide River, home to over 1600 Crocodiles and the location of the famous Jumping Crocodiles. Join this tour in the afternoon and travel down the Stuart Highway to the Adelaide River, enjoying commentary about the outskirts of Darwin along the way.

Afterwards continue to Fogg Dam Nature Reserve to view a wetland ecosystem up close.
