97: Go on a coastal safari (NT)

It’s rugged, remote and sacred – three things that make the Northern Territory’s Arnhem Land both a tantalising prospect, and one that seems disconcertingly difficult for families.

A bespoke coastal safari adventure is a fantastic way to introduce families to the incredible secrets of this remote corner of northern Australia.

Venture North offers guided safaris around Arnhem Land, the Cobourg Peninsula and Kakadu in luxury vehicles, with small groups, a range of all-inclusive packages and guides with intimate knowledge of the area. The guys will even create a bespoke itinerary for your family or group, based on what you want to see, how old the kids are and how long you’ve got to explore this absolutely incredible area.

The details

Venture North operates tours year-round, but some are unavailable during wet season. A five-day Kakadu, Arnhem Land and Cobourg Peninsula Safari costs $2590 per adult (twin share) and $2290 per child, all-inclusive.
