The trip on the river was great as because even with the 31 degree down you got a lovely breeze to keep you cool. Due to the heat there was only one large croc out of the water but the journey was made interesting and engaging by the guide Mark who had lots of interesting information to share and was an interesting person to listen to. Great lunch that was well cooked and then a tractor drive in the bush. It was pretty hot so it made it hard but once again Mark had lots of interesting information to impart. The billy tea and damper afterwards was delicious. It was well organised and is only a 30 min comfortable coach ride to get there.

We went out on an overcast and showery day so were not expecting to see many crocs. We saw at least 3 large males and 3 smaller females and some babies, so we were very happy. We were brought so close in the boat you could see the details in the scales. Amazing. As a bird lover I also enjoyed seeing the herons, egrets and kingfishers along the waterway. The tour was informative and so very interesting. The boys really looked after everyone and the food provided was really very good. We loved the damper and billy tea in the afternoon after exploring the local environment on the cart/train. A very enjoyable tour and highly recommended.

Had an all round brilliant day with Tom and Ian. They were Super informative about the area, bird life and tree species. The croc safari was unforgettable, we got so close that the crocs tail splashed water onto us as it went into the water.
Will definitely recommend to anyone passing through the area.

Wow what can I say but amazing. The captain was always letting us know where we were going and was full of information of the area. We saw lots of baby crocodile at first as It was very overcast. As we traveled further down the river we saw two large crocodiles as the tide dropped. The lunch was amazing and damper and tea for afternoon tea. It is a must to go on.

This Crocodile Safari was really good. I would recommend it to everyone. The driver and guide was very friendly and knowledge. He was always happy to field questions about the crocodiles and other animals on the tour. The boat safari was very interesting, although we were slightly unlucky not too see any large crocodiles. The food, both the Billy tea and the buffer lunch, was very good. It was nothing gourmet but was hearty and large. The barramundi, damper and the lamington cake were standouts. The tractor tour of the wetlands was also a wonderful addition and gave an insight into the flora, fauna and local aboriginal culture.

Great day out with fantastic guides (Mark was ours today). Only a couple of minutes in we saw our first croc and we got much closer than we thought- plenty of time for photos. Good lunch and damper!

Very well organised from the moment we got on the bus. Tom and Ian very professional - everything clean and tidy. The boat tour was informative and despite the lack of 'sunning' weather we saw quite a few large male and female crocodiles on the muddy banks, along with hatchlings and juveniles. Some bird life including Jabiru on the wetland. Recommended
