This trip was fabulous - 7 days travelling through Litchfield, Kakadu and Arnhem Land to the Venture North camp set up on the Cobourg Penninsular. The tour catered for all, with swimming in beautiful swimming holes with waterfalls, hikes, and cultural tours with local guides - good mix of activities. The camp, set on the top of amazingly colourful cliffs overlooking the bay, was exceptionally comfortable with great facilities and ammenaties and food to die for! The varied activities organised from the camp included historical and bush tucker walks, great fishing or just time out watching the stunning sunsets in this unique beautiful setting.
The organisation was faultless, the guides great fun and caring and did I mention the food! Possibly an annual destress date for us!

We set out on 7night charter tour as a group of 12 friends in 2 4WD's with our guides Hugh and John.These 2 fine young men are passionate and knowledgeable about the Top End their enthusiasm contagious. The trip was fun and entertaining, and the long drive was broken up with lots of stops.The camping on the way was lots of fun sleeping in a swag under a mosquito net, (a first for me)with a view of the star filled sky a treat. I was delighted when I opened my swag to find hot pink sheets!!
We swam in the most spectacular rock pools with views to die for. The food on our journey was incredible Hugh is such a gourmet cook and particularly impressive as it was prepared on the camp fire and the table set with table cloths and wine glasses. Arriving at the Cobourg CoastaL Camp was a lovely surprise. It is a luxury camp, the raked paths made us feel like we were the first people ever to stay there!!! the solar path lights gave the camp a luxury feel at night The tents with beds were very comfortable and the view, spectacular! I loved the sunset bar, very appropriately named !! The adventure kept going. We went looking for crabs and mud mussels in the mangroves with Cynthia an aboriginal guide. We went fishing with Hugh and I was screaming with delight when I caught a 7.5kg fish!! We collected oysters from the rocks and OMG were those oyster shooters delicious! Even though we were so remote, with the crocodile visiting the beach at night, and sharks visible in the water, I felt incredibly safe with our guides Hugh and John. This camping adventure will suit the most experienced or the novice camper.be reassured the rustic bathrooms were very stylish and comfortable, and there are NO smelly toilets!

My family and I did the 4 day Cobourg Peninsula tour. I have to say that it was one of our most memorable holidays. Hugh and Denis looked after us extremely well. The camp is well situated to take advantage of the magnificent views across Port Essington. You just have to look along the shoreline to see an amazing amount of marine-life activity. Thanks to Hugh, I caught the biggest fish of my life. Even our 2 technology addicted teenage daughters enjoyed the unique experience so much that they want to come on a return visit. We will certainly be back, and will be bringing friends with us.

I went out on tour with Venture North for 5 days of complete escape and relaxation. Their 5 day tour takes in Kakadu National Park, Arnhemland and the beautiful coast of the Cobourg Pennisula. This is an amazing mix of wildlife, nature, culture and coastline of the Top End of Australia, was a truely exclusive experience. The camp itself is a complete getaway from everything, completely hosted and is very comfortable. When we returned from our days touring we were met with one of the most amazing sunsets I have ever seen, gourmet nibbles and a glass of champagne followed by a dinner to match any expectation. Tented accommodation was very comfortable and waking to the sounds of the NT birds was just wonderful. I travelled on my own and there were 6 in our group. You can't beat small group touring! I made lots of great connections with the other guests and really enjoyed the experience. Thanks to Aaron, Hugh, Dave and the team - this was a life-time experience for me!
