Beautiful way to see the river Amma surrounding area. Guide was great and got to see several crocodiles.
Wonderful experience! Well organized. The guide (Ella?) was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tour was the perfect length of time, saw 3 crocodiles very up close. Would highly recommend to everyone!
Wonderful trip on the daintree river. We saw lots of crocs and a snake. The guide was knowledgeable, expert boat driver and funny. The staff were amazing and so accommodating. We brought a picnic lunch and used their covered shelter. They brought mosquito coils out and water. Highly recommend them
We truly enjoyed it! Very informative cruise guide with an amazing sense of humour. Saw crocs and amazing river banks.
Great local experience with our guide. We highly recommend this cruise. 👍
The cruise itself was fine, but our experience was overshadowed by a serious issue with the return transport recommended by the Centre. We were referred to a driver who arrived with only three working seatbelts, despite there being four passengers, including two children (as advised to the Cebtre and driver). One seatbelt was not functional, and the driver began the journey regardless. We asked to stop shortly after and were dropped at a nearby service station. Despite the unsafe situation, we were charged $60 for a 5 minute drive and left stranded for over an hour, eventually paying $250 for an alternative shuttle. This was stressful, unsafe, and added significant unexpected cost. The Centre should review the transport providers they recommend.
A great trip! Dan, our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate. We learnt so much about the river and the flora/fauna. We saw two bay crocs and the large old male, Scareface. We also saw a variety of birds Highly recommend!
Great relaxing trip viewing the rain forest and its inhabitants.The guide was informative and had a passion for his job and environment
Facilitated our cruise when most others we're understandably cancelling due to the weather forecast
Great little boat ride down the river. Our guide/skipper was knowledgeable and entertaining. We got to see a few crocs up close! Would definitely recommend.
