I take it that you will be hiring a 4x4.
I would leave out the trip to
Cairns(for a later visit) as you will be experiencing similar vegetation and scenery in comparison to that of the Tropics in the Northern Territory. It may be more lush around
Cairns but you have to get there from Central Australia first and then hire another 4x4 and set it up for your trip. Also the journey to
Cooktown via
Daintree is quite extreme in
places.
You must remember also that the drive from
Darwin to
Alice Springs is 1490 kilometres in distance.
Spend the extra 4 days you have in the Tropics of the Northern Territory and enjoy!
Gregory National Park is a good place to visit but some of the tracks could be quite rough in
places.
Go to my website below, click on 4x4 and then you can read about some of the areas you intend to visit.
Cheers
