Lord's Kakadu & Arnhem Land Safaris

Discover the best of The Top End

Lord’s Safaris

Lord’s Safaris were established on a buffalo station that is now part of Kakadu National Park, and is one of only two guided safari companies with privileged access to aboriginal Arnhem Land.

At Injalak Hill, acknowledged as having the best aboriginal rock art sites in Western Arhem Land, Lord’s have trained and employed the local Aboriginal Oenpelli people as custodian guides - inspired to pass on the beliefs depicted in the art, and the know-how of surviving in the rich wetlands.

Safaris are ideally suited to small groups of up to six people – and personalised to suit your interests, time-frame and requirements. You will travel in a comfortable 4WD and accommodation can either be camping or hotels/motels (for an intimate experience of this special part of Australia, it is worth spending a couple of nights under canvas, cooking over a campfire and awakening to the sounds of birdsong).
