Katherine is a town in Northern Territory, Australia situated on the Katherine River. Beginning as an outpost established with the Australian Overland Telegraph Line on the North-South transport route between Darwin and Adelaide, Katherine has grown with the development of transport and local industries including mining – particularly gold mining; a strategic military function with RAAF Base Tindal; also as a tourism gateway to the attractions of nearby Nitmiluk National Park, particularly Katherine Gorge and its many ancient rock paintings. The region is known to experience heavy flooding during "the wet season".

Overall we were happy with our experience from the planning to our lodging. We had our trust issues about not physically seeing anyone, but your staff were available to chat with us when we had questions. We had only one incident in the Doubletree Excel Hotel. The receptionist told me that breakfast wasn’t included in the voucher. My husband clarified the situation and she apologized for not reading the voucher correctly. The selection of lodging was very interesting, varying from modern hotels to tea rooms and an apartment. We were expected at each lodging and there were no difficulties. We enjoyed ourselves immensely and we would happily use your company again for future travels. Thank you for your efficient organization, comforting agents and follow-up.

I had a wonderful experience using RoutePerfect to plan all of the hotels for our honeymoon. It was very easy to use and I loved how I could select a hotel from a list of possibilities. All of the hotels were fantastic and I have nothing but great things to say. I have definitely been telling everyone about the website and if we ever plan on travelling abroad again I will definitely return to your website.
