Katherine
Last Updated: Feb. 26, 2008
In the outback of Australia’s Northern Territiry, 354 kilometres south of Darwin, lies the oasis of Katherine. Following the Stuart Highway (known to the locals simply as ‘the track’) you eventually arrive at the town of Katherine and the spectacular Katherine George National Park. Here the clear river flows between towering, brilliantly coloured walls of one of the most fascinating river canyons in Australia.

For a great view of the city (especially at night) go to the top of the Eiffel Tower at Paris. It also offers a great vantage point for viewing the water show at the Bellagio.
Make sure you try currywurst in Germany. It's basically a hot dog with tomato sauce (ketchup) and curry powder. Tastes brilliant and only costs 1 or 2 Euro.
A tip for people looking for a decent coffee shop.. if you don't already know about it, you will because most Contiki travellers find out about it - its The Grasshopper. Ask a local and they should be able to tell you where to find it.
