Our choice of tour to Litchfield National Park was made on the basis of TripAdvisor reviews. It was evident that ethical adventures was a more costly option yet the prospect of a smaller tour group and more quality experience was worth it. We were not disappointed. Carl as our driver, guide was much more. Our host and entertainment worked with the owners to make it an experience unforgettable. Every need was anticipated and every opportunity to spoil us in little ways was afforded. …..
From my initial contact with Rob and Tracey I knew these tours were going to be special. Their passion and customer service in that short time instantly earned my trust and I was referring people to them even before I took my tours. I have travelled so far to 22 countries and taken countless tours in my time …
Brilliant Day Tour to Kakadu into flood country. Rob was v insightful, knowledgeable and patient. Went with myself 28M two parents 65yrs- went for a fab walk, river cruise and lovely lunch. Hope to comeback for a longer trek with friends!
Anna Arkell We had an absolutely amazing day in Litchfield with Rob as a family of 6 across three generations. Communication was great from the start and even after the tour. The day was filled with stunning views, swimming in beautiful waterholes/cascades and enjoying a great variety of what Litchfield has to offer (which is a lot!). The day was made extra special by the interesting, entertaining and insightful commentary and conversation we had with Rob. We saw and under so much more through the knowledge he generously shared. Lunch was delicious and small thoughtful touches like icy poles after a walk in the heat were welcomed by us all. The tour had highlights for all in our group of varying ages (from 6-75). Rob was great with our three kids and we all had a truly memorable day. Thanks Rob! Brad Rosser Holidaying in Darwin I wanted to get some 'top end' nature experience and so I took the Litchfield Day Tour offered by Ethical Adventures. I had a great time looking at various facets of the park, from small (termites) to large (Wangi Falls) and including relaxing swims in two other spots, a bush walk and an included lunch. Guide Rob was experienced, knowledgeable and a charming host. A must-do for anyone visiting Darwin! Michelle Jago What a fabulous day exploring Litchfield National Park with Rob from Ethical Adventures! The catering was delicious, with many more thoughtful touches that made the experience even better, and Ethical Adventures is an excellent option for anyone looking for a memorable adventure. I highly recommend this tour and company. Ms A A once in a lifetime day in Litchfield with Ethical Adventures! In January 2025 my adult daughter, my teen son and myself spent the day exploring Litchfield with Rob from Ethical Adventures. We were all absolutely blown away by every detail of the excursion. Of course the scenery, swimming in waterholes, and atmosphere were beyond comprehension, and what really stood out for us was the passion, fun, education, experience and committment we received from Ethical Adventures. From the first communication until the drop off (with shared photos on dropbox) every minute of the day was so thoughtful. Rob shared so many interesting stories with us, and targetted all of our interests and even music tastes on the drive. Rob also gave us lots of time on our own to just explore and savour the majestic landscape. Ethical Adventures provided us food in environmentally thoughtful packages. It was absolutely delicious, generous and varied. This is an adventure that stands out beyond others. What Ethical Adventures are doing and the way they welcomed and invited us to become part of the NT is sublime. We were all blown away and will definitely be back. Ethical Adventures provides a service that exceeds all expectations. Thank you so much, you helped us make lifetime memories. Dawn Marsh I've just returned from two of the best days of touring I've experienced in a long time.... Rob and his team at Ethical Adventures NT introduced us to some incredible parts of the Northern Territory and my awareness of the the flood country, Arnhem Land, climate and culture have been deeply enriched. Our Arnhem Land indigenous guide shared his story and explained the stunning rock art with heartfelt passion and the information our Litchfield National Park guide passed on was informative, funny and beautifully delivered. Transport was very comfortable and the food both days was delicious. Two thought provoking days filled with laughter, connection to country and great company, I've certainly come home with memories I'll treasure for a lifetime. Thank you for a fabulous adventure! David F My wife and I spent a wonderful day on a small group tour to Litchfield National Park with Adam who was our driver and host. He was very knowledgable, enthusiastic and engaging.The day was very varied, learning about the nature , culture and history of the area. We had a chance to swim at three beautiful different locations and the lunch was particularly well presented. There were timely refreshments breaks and appropriate comfort stops. It was a really fulfilling day and we are so pleased that we went with this particular company who do live up to their high expectations and values. This was exemplified when we accidentally left behind a jacket in the vehicle. We contacted the owner Rob later that evening and he went to incredible efforts to return it to us very early the next morning at Darwin airport just before we left. We can’t thank him enough. PS. We endorse another reviewers comment The Anzac biscuits are amazing. Michelle Anderson We had an amazing day with Carl at Litchfield, nice friendly guide with lots of interesting information, we loved all the little touches, icy poles and cold towels at the perfect time. Litchfield is absolutely beautiful, amazing swimming spots and also our lunch was delicious. What a great day!! Cameron Flowers Fantastic trip to Berry Springs and Litchfield National Park, we really enjoyed the scenery, the Springs and waterfalls and the swimming. We were well looked after by our tour guide and highly recommend Ethical adventures. Neale Forbes This is the best way to relax and enjoy the best that the park has to offer. Magical. Louise Clark What a fabulous day from beginning to end! Our guide was friendly, knowledge and had a great sense of humour. Arriving at Berry Springs before anyone else was the highlight of my day. The small group size ensured we didn't miss a thing. And the food was fabulous. Thank you 😊
This is a diverse day which brings together the wonderland of Berry Springs and the stunning Litchfield National Park.
Enjoy ‘nature’s massage’ at Berry Springs and swimming in magnificent waterholes. Learn about the natural history, bush foods and resources in the area. Let’s not forget about the giant magnetic termite mounds also!
Small group, huge memories.
