BAMURRU PLAINS, KAKADU NATIONAL PARK
TEEMING WILDLIFE
Timber platform suites with a touch of luxury, yes. But the real focus is on exotic birds and teeming wildlife.
Your Safari Suite is built on a raised platform that blends quietly into the surrounding savannah bush, and stands on the very edge of unspoiled floodplains – a natural playground for a huge variety of birds and indigenous wildlife. So you can expect close encounters with nature in its many forms. Dawn will break to a raucous medley provided by blue-winged kookaburras, soon to be followed by the haunting calls of whistling kites and huge clouds of magpie geese. You will see water buffalo splashing through the wetlands, crocs, dingos, wallabies, possums and any number of reptiles.

“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”
Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.
“FABULOUS FIRST VISIT TO SOUTH AFRICA”
Excellent advice received regarding our first trip to South Africa. We were given very personalised recommendations based on what we hoped to experience during our holiday, and the suggested lodges were absolutely fabulous. All transfers ran like clockwork, with polite and friendly drivers. From the beautifully printed, detailed itinerary to the elegant document case, luggage tags, and the informative app, every detail contributed to a sense of luxurious, premium service.
“FAULTLESS AND FUN”
We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.
