We can't help returning to this beautiful place - in fact we have been there fourteen times now. The end of the wet season is our ideal time - the countryside is green and lush and the water levels are high so many of our excursions are by boat. Apart from the stunning scenery (flood plain, open woodland to escarpment),... More

Wow, what can I say, had such an amazing time at Davidson's. The fishing was amazing, between two of us we caught over 50 fish, which we released but the thrill was still the same. I caught my biggest so far which was 74cms!!! The guides are awesome and know where all the best spots are, ask claire to take... More

Rock art and wildlife experiences OUTSTANDING!!! (Rated as some of the best in the world, and we could understand why!) Guides were informative and passionate about this wonderful region, food good (lots of barra freshly caught from the billabong - yum....)and interactions with Max Davidson and some of his other guests endlessly entertaining. On day two, we were offered a... More

I've visted Max Davidson and the safari camp many times now. It's truly special. The wildlife is better than anything you see in Kakadu, with so few people and such abundant bird life. Max has a great team of people working for him, from enthusiastic young guides to the fabulous meals prepared by Ray. Who wouldn't be enthusiastic to work... More

We opted to drive so required a special permit to enter Arnhem land which was organised by Ray (The Manager also the cook). There is the option to fly from Darwin (1 hour) Once you get here it's all... More

I just don't know what to say about Max Davidson's - it was one of my most favourite places. It is basically a camp site in Arnhem Land - an Aboriginal reserve in Australia's top end. There are so many things to do while you are there - tour sandstone caves and see aboriginal art work, ride around the creeks... More

This experience is difficult to put into words. In a remote corner of the Northern Territories, I visited Arnhemland at the very end of the dry season in 2006. Due to a twist of fate, I was the only visitor during my stay. Just the camp manager (Ray) and myself seeing the sites less than 4 km from the camp.... More
