Let local birding guides show you Darwin’s bird hotspots on our small-group morning tour. See and learn about our diverse Top End and migratory bird fauna, while discovering Darwin’s natural and cultural richness.
Be inspired in the cool of sunrise when birds are most active, in coastal wetlands, mangroves, beaches and monsoon forests, each with their unique bird species. Be amazed at the places you would never have found or imagined, so close to Darwin.
