About Us

Pudakul Aboriginal Cultural Tours is an established 100% fully Aboriginal owned and operated family business that commenced over a decade ago. We deliver an original popular Aboriginal culture and nature-based engagement experience. This is an authentic experience rich with information, knowledge and culture!

We operate in the Northern Territory, Australia, from the Adelaide River Flood Plains on Aboriginal owned and operated Limilngan-Wulna Land - which is at the forefront to World Heritage, listed Kakadu National Park. Adelaide River Wetland is a just 45 minutes from the Northern Territory capital city of Darwin, and is a huge area bursting with wildlife and plants, along with great local attractions such as Fogg Dam, Wetland View Top, Jumping Crocodile Cruises, Djukbinj National Park, Leaning Tree Lagoon and Mary River National Park.

We have a regular Aboriginal Cultural Tour departing at 10:30am daily for 2 hours every day all year round. This tour gives you an opportunity to engage with local Aboriginal people, the environment and wildlife, learn basket weaving, dilly bag making and the techniques used in the process. Have a go at throwing a spear or blowing a didgeridoo, play the clapsticks and learn about our local bush food and medicine. You will be served with damper (bush bread) and tea after the experience. This tour is a perfect tour to do on its own or to combine with your touring itinerary, for example you could do the Jumping Crocodile cruise at 9:00am, then join the Pudakul tour at 1030am, end with Billy Tea and Damper and be back in Darwin around 1:30pm, or continue onto Kakadu or Litchfield, or you can request to extend your learning experience and join us for a day on country learning how to make a spear, collect and gather fibres and immerse yourself with a local family on country. 

We also organise separate group departures to suit touring schedules and can also provide specialised touring on country, such as a bush tucker lunch or dinner near the stunning billabong.

Ask about our ‘paint your own souvenir’ and come along and learn about the different styles of paintings and come along and do your very own Aboriginal painting. 

We also have self-contained accommodation and unpowered sites for visitor convenience. 

Additionally, we offer two tours with transfers to / from Darwin that combine our Aboriginal Culture Tour with a wetland billabong cruise or a direct shuttle to our cultural.

We also offer a full day Aboriginal Rock Art Tour out to Kakadu National Park and Litchfield National Park with a knowledgeable and experienced Aboriginal Guide every time, and can build a package that suits your itinerary.
