"MANGATJ"

Joe (Dingo)Parry, & Lucy Carlingung, their Family & Friends Conduct

“NO FRILLS” Guided Tours on their Traditional Lands,

West of Daly River in the Northern Territory of Australia.

Put your tent up at our base camp where there are showers toilets, and if availability of contact is really important, access to a wireless telephone.

( Note: No digital phone service available West of Daly River)
There is a bush airstrip located at YANTJARRWU Outstation
.

OR WE CAN HAVE A “FAIR DINKUM BUSH CAMP” ALONGSIDE WATER SOMEWHERE, IN A NATURAL BUSH SETTING AND HAVE BUCKET BATHS AND BUSH TOILET.

Cultural Tourism, including history, bush tucker, viewing wildlife, hunting and gathering food, from a wide diversity of habitat, including rivers, billabongs, sprawling wetlands, and seemingly endless open plains.

Our “Tag Along Tours”, are arranged to suit YOU!

Tell us what you wish to experience, see or photograph.

Although our own traditional lands have many wonderful aspects of natural beauty our neighbours have escarpments and waterfalls on their traditional lands that we can also arrange access to if that is your wish.

Then pack everything you need for a BYO trip in the bush into your four wheel drive, and let’s go!





"US!" Your friendly hosts

Dingo & Lucy.

“G’day!” This is how we look, and if you are happy to take us as you find us, then we will make you feel warmly welcome.
Sometimes we have sons or daughters with us, and quite often we have a grandchild or two staying with us, perhaps even a niece or nephew. That’s because we are a family that believes that the future is with the young people, and when we are showing you our culture and traditional ways, we are also teaching and preserving those ways and our history with the future Carers of the Lands, as well as showing them how to share that heritage with you!
We and our family are looking forward to your visit.
