This site is less well known and well away from the crowds but has some excellent examples of rock art, including the rare and ancient dynamic figures. There are also the famous x-ray style art and so called contact period art when Aboriginal people had first contact with white man. Your guide will explain the art and culture of the area.

Entry into Arnhem Land is by special permit only which we will arrange for you. We engage 4WD, ford the crocodile infested river and with the special permission of the traditional owners we visit a small Aboriginal community. Here there is the chance to meet Aboriginal artists and weavers and watch them at work. This is an excellent opportunity to purchase genuine Aboriginal art and craft at wholesale prices. (note-you are under no pressure to buy). Later we join an Aboriginal guided tour to a nearby ancient rock art site, some dated in excess of 20’000 years. You will receive expert interpretation of the art by your Aboriginal guide. There are excellent views overlooking the Arnhem Land wetlands.
