Get ready for one of the most inspiring photography adventures of your life! As part of our Australian World Heritage Sites Photography Tour series, we’re returning to Kakadu National Park in 2025 for an unforgettable 5-day experience. This tour is set to be a highlight of our upcoming trips, as we explore the majestic beauty and power of Kakadu, one of the most iconic and unique places on Earth.

In early December, we’ll be there to capture the raw power of the wet season storms sweeping across Kakadu. Imagine standing in awe as storm clouds roll in, lightning strikes the sky, and nature reveals its most dramatic show. This is an exclusive opportunity to photograph a landscape alive with vibrant colours, dynamic weather, and wildlife in one of the largest and most biodiverse national parks in Australia.

We’ll spend 5 days immersed in Kakadu’s stunning landscapes, exploring ancient rock art, spectacular waterfalls, lush wetlands, and vast floodplains. This trip will be an unrushed, small-group experience, with only 6 guests to ensure a personalized and enriching adventure. Get ready to explore, laugh, and learn as we work together to capture some of Australia’s most breathtaking sights.
