About Traveling to Northern Territory

Northern Territory

There's plenty to see and do in the Northern Territory (NT) all year round. The region is divided into two distinct climate zones: the tropical Top End and the semi-arid Red Centre.

In the Top End, the climate is tropical. Summer lasts from November to April, bringing magnificent thunderstorms, spectacular sunsets, and warmer weather. During this time, you will encounter smaller crowds, as it is considered the low season. This period is ideal for finding great deals on flights, accommodations, and tours.

From May to October, the Dry Season occurs, characterized by warm and pleasant weather, with sunny days and cooler nights. Visiting during the Dry Season allows you to explore attractions in the surrounding national parks and enjoy the lively sunset markets. Darwin and the Top End come alive during this season, with a packed calendar of events and festivals that attract visitors eager to take advantage of the balmy outdoor celebrations.

Alice Springs and the Red Centre experience four typical seasons: summer, autumn, winter, and spring. The Red Centre is known for its extreme temperature variations, with hot days in summer (from December to February) and cold nights in winter (from June to August). Temperatures can drop below freezing overnight in winter, making it quite chilly in the desert. Winter is the most popular time to visit, as the days are crisp, cool, and not too hot.

Spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) in the Red Centre offer warm days and cool evenings, making them pleasant times to explore the area.

Whether you're young or old, seeking adventure or hoping to relax, traveling on a budget or ready to splurge, a holiday in the Northern Territory (NT) promises a unique experience. No matter if you choose to visit the Top End, the Red Centre, or are fortunate to explore both, there are countless extraordinary encounters awaiting you in the NT.

The Top End offers a blend of cosmopolitan and outback experiences, featuring iconic national parks, waterfalls, ancient cultures, unique wildlife, and exceptional local dining. This region is divided into four distinct areas: Darwin, Kakadu, Katherine, and Arnhem Land, each providing its own array of attractions.

The Red Centre is characterized by breathtaking natural wonders, including Uluru, Kings Canyon, and Kata Tjuta (The Olgas). Alice Springs captures the essence of the Australian outback and serves as an ideal base for adventure. From waterholes and biking to hiking trails, historic centers, wildlife encounters, and four-wheel driving, everything you need for an exciting getaway is easily accessible.

No matter where you’d like to go, we’ve got you covered! You can travel around the NT by air, road, or rail.

Daily flights connect Darwin, Alice Springs, and Uluru, while Airnorth runs smaller flights to regional centers for added convenience.

One of the most enjoyable ways to experience the NT is by hitting the road. In fact, 95% of the NT’s attractions are easily accessible via well-maintained roads. Whether you choose a 2WD regular car, a campervan, or an all-terrain 4WD, there's so much to see and do! And if you’re flying into the Territory, you can easily pick up a rental vehicle right at the airport. Don’t forget to check out some of our scenic driving routes! For getting around locally, you have plenty of options, including taxis, airport shuttles, bicycle rentals, and bus networks.

If you're looking for a truly unique experience, consider traveling on The Ghan. This remarkable train journey takes you between Adelaide and Darwin, with stops in Alice Springs and Katherine along the way. It offers stunning sights just outside your window!

The Territory's main, modern, and well-equipped airport hubs are in Darwin, Alice Springs, and Yulara (Uluru) for visitors travelling by air. Major domestic and international airlines service the NT, offering passengers easy access to destinations throughout the Territory from nearly anywhere in the world.

Journey to the NT by road along our well-maintained, sealed highways, which offer the most direct routes connecting the NT with cities in South Australia, Queensland, and Western Australia. Once you cross the border into the NT, take the time to explore our driving routes throughout the Territory.

Despite the vast distances, travelling by bus (coach) to the NT is easy and affordable. Major coach and tour companies run coach services between transport hubs in the NT and destinations in Western Australia, South Australia and Queensland.

The Ghan, one of the world’s great train journeys, is undoubtedly the most romantic way to travel to the NT. It covers a remarkable 2,797 km (1,846 miles) between Adelaide and Darwin, with stops at Alice Springs and Katherine. Enjoy the changing scenery as you journey through the heart of the country, traveling across Central Australia and the outback.

You can also visit Darwin by sea on a once-in-a-lifetime luxury or expedition cruise. With its tropical climate, Darwin offers year-round cruise activity and is a popular port city.

Saltwater crocodiles, the most well-known of the NT’s wildlife, can be found in rivers and billabongs in the Top End or at wildlife parks throughout the NT.

Any body of water in the Top End may contain large and potentially dangerous crocodiles. Saltwater crocodiles inhabit both fresh and saltwater environments. Saltwater crocodiles are hazardous – you should never take unnecessary risks in crocodile habitats.

The Northern Territory Government prioritizes your safety when it comes to crocodiles, but ultimately, how you behave around crocodile habitats is your responsibility.

Always pay attention to crocodile safety signs and assume they are present, even if you cannot see them. With nearly as many crocodiles as people in the north, you’re sure to encounter them in Territory waterways.

There are approximately 150,000 saltwater crocodiles and at least 100,000 freshwater crocodiles across northern Australia.
