Welcome to the Northern Territory
The Northern Territory is Australia’s real Outback and home to the iconic natural wonders of Kakadu National Park and Uluru/Ayers Rock.
Aboriginal people hold a spiritual connection to this land; their 40,000 year old story is shared on rocks and canvas, discovered in the sand and passed down through generations.
The Northern Territory is blessed with diverse and contrasting environments, where change is the only constant.
Intriguing and spectacular wildlife vary dramatically from the deserts of Red Centre to the tropics of the Top End.
The “NT” is renowned for its colourful outback characters. Larger than life and only too willing to share a yarn or two, it's hard not to fall in love with our down to earth attitude.
Holiday, relax, open your mind and immerse yourself in the spirit of Australia’s Outback.
