Things to do in Northern Territory + weather guide

This is a Travelwheels guide to Things to do in Northern Territory.  This is probably the best state to explore if you want to understand the incredibly rich culture of the old living civilization on the planet.  The Northern Territory is a massive state, and it is about the size of Italy, Spain and France combined, so it takes time to explore this amazing place!

If you have less than four weeks, then we would recommend using the Travel Wheels Fly Drive Deals and combining a twin centre break so that you can enjoy the place without spending days and days driving on a short trip to this area.
The state is roughly divided into two sections by the type of landscape and of course by the climate. The northern part of the state is known as the “TOP END” and has the characteristics of a tropical region with many national parks and some of the best Aboriginal Rock Art in the whole of Australia. The bottom half or the “RED CENTRE” is dominated by Uluru or Ayres Rock and the magical feeling of being literally in the middle of nowhere!

Things to do in Northern Territory – visit Darwin!

Darwin which is known as a tropical frontier town in the “TOP END” has a population of approximately 70,000 people, and boy is it hot and humid! It is actually closer to Singapore than Canberra and everything is done at a very slow pace due to the heat!
