Beautifully remote, Darwin sits at the peak of the Top End of the Northern Territory, and is surrounded by national parks and a glistening blue sea.
It may seem far from the rest of Australia, but is well worth a visit with unrivalled natural beauty and a laid-back outback-meets-city feel. Plus, these offers make the trip easy to budget.
