Top end adventure

While there’s no bad way to experience the Top End of Australia, there is an exceptional way – with luxury travel pioneers Abercrombie & Kent. The company’s newest small-group journey, the nine-day ‘Top End & Kimberley’, sees 10 lucky guests explore this remote part of the country on a private air safari from Darwin to Broome. There are galleries to be visited, off-road explorations through Litchfield National Park, historic pubs to quench your thirst, and tens of thousands of years of Aboriginal history to admire. Stay in supreme style at the likes of Davidson’s Arnhemland Safaris Lodge at Mt Borradaile, and Bullo River Station, a working outback cattle station and conservation sanctuary. While this part of the world dazzles at every angle, some pockets are best appreciated from the sky; in a private plane, the Bungle Bungles will blow you away. abercrombiekent.com.au
