Hey guys, rather than drag the Kimberely all the way up to Darwin as we dont have the time the wife and I thought we might fly then hire a camper trailer - has any one done this in Darwin before? Any suggestions as to who to call?

Ratbag, how far from Darwin are you planning on heading? Most places are in fairly easy reach from Darwin unless you're heading remote. Last trip we rented a KIA 4WD and day tripped out. Was fairly cheap through Thrifty and could pick up and drop off car from the airport.

Hi Bear - thanks for the Kea tip - didnt even think of them! Great idea and way more self-sufficient than Thrifty!

Do you already have your trip set out? Let me know when you're planning on leaving and I can suggest a few places to check out. I've also put a few pics up in the gallery and will see what else I can put up.

Hey Bear - thanks for all the help mate. I am pretty sure those pics are yours in the gallery? Nice fish mate!
We are hoping to leave for Darwin at the end of July (get out of the cold) - have officially started planning the trip as of TODAY! We are definately going to do it!

You'll love it mate. When it gets close, drop me an email to bear@roaminangler.com.au and I can put you onto a few spots in the city and around.

HTH.
