Kakadu National Park is a protected area in the Northern Territory of Australia, 171 km southeast of Darwin. The park is located within the Alligator Rivers Region of the Northern Territory. It covers an area of 19,804 km2 (7,646 sq mi), extending nearly 200 kilometres from north to south and over 100 kilometres from east to west. It is the size of Slovenia, about one-third the size of Tasmania, or nearly half the size of Switzerland. The Ranger Uranium Mine, one of the most productive uranium mines in the world, is surrounded by the park.
With terrain encompassing wetlands, rivers and sandstone escarpments, it’s home to some 2,000 plant species and wildlife from saltwater crocodiles and flatback turtles to birds.
Irene has been my “go to” person for travel for many years. Through her caring, friendly and excellent service, I have visited a number of countries including; Egypt, Kyrgyzstan, Nepal, Ireland, England, Scotland, Italy, Netherlands, Cyprus, Greece, New Zealand, and Martinique. She has also gotten me into many beautiful communities across Canada. She listens, provides options, and is always responsive to our requests. Anyone thinking of booking travel should seriously consider Irene, whom I highly recommend.
