Well organised tour. Becs was a fantastic tour guide and bus driver. Very knowledgeable, efficient and helpful. Plenty of food for lunch and snacks. Lovely cold water available which was really welcome as the day got hotter. Smaller group made it much more enjoyable rather than travelling on a large tour bus. It was a long day but would highly recommend this tour.

For a Pommie Becs (Rebecca) was an excellent and unbelievably knowledgeable young lady who made our visit to Kakadu memorable! Her previous experiences in the top end were happily shared with our small group of 13. From her grasp of the local aboriginal language to her knowledge of wildlife and flora was riveting. I can’t recommend Off-road Dreaming highly enough. The plentiful supply of fresh cold drinking water, the snacks through the day; and the wonderful lunch all prepared and catered by Becs, Our scenic stops along the way including my crocodile sighting as we crossed the South Alligator River will all be very memorable.

The Kakadu day tour with Becs was exceptional. It was a jam-packed day full of great experience. From climbing Ubirr rock, viewing the scenery from the top, viewing the rock art, to the scenic river tour where we learnt much of the traditions was a pleasure. Thanks Becs for a great day. You are a fantastic guide and the lunch was great! Gumak and Bobo Kat and Paul

It's a long way to go for just the day but if you only have one day free then better to go than not to go! Whole tour is very well organised and we were so lucky to have 'Becs' as our driver/guide. Even if she is from the UK she really knows her stuff and is well informed, witty and fun to be around. Our whole group were totally enamoured with her and would always want to have Becs leading any future tours!!

The Kakadu day tour with guide Becs was fantastic! A long day, but we'll worth it, and guide Becs was the perfect host... Experienced, informative, knowledgeable, and great personality that made the trip that much more enjoyable. The walking/climbing at Ubirr rock art (followed by a great lunch) was amazing, as was the river cruise. Thoroughly recommend! @becs, Rom left his Rarotonga cap on the bus, but you're welcome to it! Thanks again. "Gumak".

The trip was great. It reminded us of Lion King. Annie was really friendly and gave informative commentary the whole way. My friend and I learnt heaps.

Thank you for a truly memorable day trip. The river boat cruise and the rock art was amazing. Annie the driver was fantastic!

The trip got off to a great start, as I was literally picked up at the exact time I was told I would be by Offroad Dreaming, the tour organizer. I was also fortunate to have Annie as the group guide, as her passion for her work and knowledge of the area made for a great day. While visiting during wet season “limits” what one might see compared to dry season, this trip was still exceptional in every way. Upon arrival to Kakadu, we started at Burrungkuy (Nourlangie). After a bit of mild uphill hiking, we visited a series of rock shelters at which we were able to see the amazing rock art, some of which is estimated to be up to 20,000 years old. It is hard to wrap one’s head around it, and not wonder what messages the drawers were trying to convey. A truly remarkable experience! The second part of the trip was a boat cruise along the Yellow River. Very pleasant and enjoyable. Beautiful water lilies everywhere. It was also great to see some crocodiles along the way! In spite of all the driving she had to do, Annie never lagged in her enthusiasm for what she showed us. The trip was well paced with plenty of rest stops. A tasty lunch was also made available to the group, as well as other snacks along the way, topped off by a refreshing cool towel. This trip makes for a long day, but it is worth every second.

The views were amazing, Kakadu is really special. Our tour guide Brooke was very kind! She was respectful and informative while showing and talking to us about the history behind the aboriginal art. We had time to explore some areas by ourselves for a bit which was nice. Lunch was yummy and the snacks throughout the day were good too. Bus was very comfy with perfect temp air con. I was in a group of 8 which was great and made it a very comfortable and personal tour. Would recommend for solo travellers. It is quite pricey but I think it’s worth it for the quality of the tour.

Amazing aboriginal paintings, beautiful boat trip with ery funny guide Dennis. Our guide Annie was brilliant, so much knowledge about the culture of the area and about the natural environment. Lunch was great. Loved it!
