Ubirr
Kakadu, Australia, NT 0822
Practical Info
Ubirr is located approximately 30 minutes from the small town of Jubir—which itself is located three hours east of the city of Darwin. The best time to visit it during the dry season, from May through early October, as many roads become completely impassable once monsoon rain starts to fall. Hours of operation from May-November are 8:30am-sunset, and from December-April, in the peak of the wet season, the hours are shortened from 2pm-sunset. For visitors over 16 years old, admission is $25.

Becky was a great tour guide. She was informative and helpful. Although it was a long day it was well worth it.

Our tour guide was great, lots of interaction!
Bus was a bit rickety tho, the window moulding was falling off in front of my daughters face.
Great day out over all.

Lovely tour guide who as so passionate.
Could have skipped Fogg Dam and headed straight to Kakadu to spend more time at other sites. It’s a big drive to only see rock art when Kakadu is so big.

Anbangbang Billabong walk on Kakadu National Park was most interesting and inspiring to us. So old Aborygen paintings and colourful rocka.

Kakadu National Park Wildlife and Ubirr Rock Art Tour from Darwin City
We had a memorably fantastic time participating in this tour. Our tour guide Lee was phenomenal! So much passion, so many great stories on the bus to and from Kakadu back to Darwin. We were fortunate enough during the wet season to be able to manage the tour as many activities had been cancelled until the dry season, but this didn’t phase Lee one bit. He was ecstatic to see so many foreign tourists coming to join his tour after the pandemic and showcased his knowledge brilliantly regarding the protected national parks and all the ancient culture which lies within them.

Kakadu National Park Wildlife and Ubirr Rock Art Tour from Darwin City
Paul was an exceptional tour guide, his knowledge was amazing, down to the scientific names of many plants and insects. He had a great respect and appreciation for the culture of the traditional custodians of the land. We didn’t opt for the jumping croc tour but went to check out Fogg Dam which was amazing in itself. We then went on to Bowali Visitors Centre which was super informative. We then finally reached Ubirr to appreciate the art work and after a short walk and small rocky climb reached the top of Ubirr rock to take in the view and were given 5 minutes to appreciate the silence and spirit of the land. We stopped at the Bark Hut on the way back to town which was such a cool looking place and indulged in a little home made ice cream.
All in all a great value trip, the only fault was that with a full bus you can feel a bit cramped for the length of travel that you do for the day.
