Highly recommend this cruise. Sandy (skipper) was knowledgeable about the wildlife and the history of the billabong. Saw a lot of crocodiles and birds. A lovely tour.
Hi Anna, Thank you for the lovely review. Sandy loves to show our guests around the beautiful wetlands we operate in and share her knowledge of the area. We hope you can visit again some time.
Very entertaining morning cruise, great commentary and loads of wildlife. Highly recommended.
Hi Roberta, thank you so much for your review. We are very glad to hear you enjoyed your cruise. The wildlife and scenery out on the billabong is definitely a very special experience!
Excited to go out on the billabong for the sunset cruise at the end of the wet season when there is lots of water around. The environment is so different at this time of year. The sunset was brilliant with cloud cover and some hint of rain around. Donny was a fountain of knowledge and was very patient with finding the birds hiding in the trees, we would sit and watch and enjoy the serenity of the environment. Highly recommend the tours.
Thank you for your review. The sunset cruises are absolutely a very special time of day to experience the billabong. Donny's certainly very knowledgeable, he loves getting to share this beautiful part of the world with people. We are so glad you enjoyed your tour!
If you are lucky enough to get Donny as your guide you are in for a real treat, he is very knowledgeable about the billabong and all the incredible wildlife you spot along the way. He is a master of allowing you to be in the moment and enjoy the serenity of the silence (bird noises only). The sunrise cruise was amazing and so many animals starting their day. Donny is a really good communicator and got those everyone to share their knowledge of the birds we encountered.
Hi There, Thanks so much for that lovely 5 star review and recommendation. Donny is great isn't he, and he loves to show off his backyard and enjoys it all as much as you do.. We hope to see you again one day.
Cruise was spectacular seeing the crocodiles and birds in their natural environment Very relaxed and entertaining! A must see !
Hi Sheryl, Thanks so much for that great review and recommendation. The Wetlands and tour are a special part of Darwin.
It was a great trip ! The guide was funny and gave clear explanations. We learned many things about crocodiles and the river. We had time to take photos. I saw crocodiles relaxing near the water, it was amazing to see them in nature ! The view along the river were also very beautiful. The boat was safe and comfortable. This cruise is perfect for people who like nature and animals. I really enjoyed it and recommend it to everyone.
Hi Ema Thanks for your great review and high recommendation! We hope you got some fantastic photos and are so glad you enjoyed a relaxing cruise on the beautiful Corroboree Billabong :)
An enjoyable tour. Easy parking with our van. Relaxed atmosphere. Good commentary, interesting information which explained things and responded actively to people's questions. Lots of crocodiles - highlight was a particularly large crock. Lots of birds around the water. Would definitely recommend this one - easy reach from Darwin as a day trip.
Hi Erich Thanks so much for the high review and rating. Corroboree Billabong is a beautiful area and we are so happy to be able to share it with our guests.
Stuart the guide was not only entertaining but very knowledgeable about the wetlands. Will definitely go back for another tour.
Hi Jody, Thank you for doing a great review. Stuart is great and his knowledge of the Wetlands is unsurpassed. We look forward to seeing you again sometime. 😀
We have been told to be there at 6:45 for sunrise. Because of road conditions, we arrived at 6:48 and the boat was already on the water (with only 2 people on board). They ignored us and went. We called the office and all they did was put us on the 10am cruise. The pilot did not even apologize, and said that we have been told to be there 10 mn before. This is ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE. Then all the cruise was terrible with a pathetic guide. Avoid this at any cost, - there are much better guided tours there
Hi Robert I`m sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your experience with us, it is very rare that we receive complaints. However, the information you have provided is not correct as I dealt with the call from your group that morning, and you certainly did not arrive at 6.48am and neither did we just ignore you. Yes, the boat would have been on the water at 6.48 as the cruise was supposed to depart at 6.45, the reason he was still there though until 6.52 before moving away, was because we were waiting for your group and trying to contact you. Also, after you missed your cruise, I offered your group a free cruise on our next scheduled departure which was at 10am, there were no other options available as you were leaving that evening. Now, regarding the timing - Our guide contacted me in the office at 6.50 and advised that you were not there. I tried to contact your group on the phone number provided in the online booking, which I could not get through on. I then sent a sms to the number advising the boat was about to leave and to contact us immediately. At 6.52 a reply had still not been received, and the guide was instructed by me to leave. I realised later that morning, the reason I could not contact your group was due to an incorrect number that had been put in by your group when making their own booking online. I then received a call from your group at 6.53 and you had just seen the boat going away. If we had received contact from you prior to the boat leaving, we would have arranged for it to come back and collect you after the sunrise had appeared. I know you contacted us only 8 minutes after the departure time, but sometimes people don`t even turn up. We can`t wait forever, so we do have to depart eventually if we have not received a reply from the passengers. We had waited as long as we possibly could for you to turn up. Had we not left when we did, we would not have been able to reach the sunrise viewing location on the billabong in time for the sunrise at 7am, and the passengers onboard would have missed watching it. We have a bit more flexibility with late arrivals on the other cruises but unfortunately the sunrise does not wait for us if we are running late. The number of passengers onboard the sunrise cruise you missed is not significant, as they were not running late and as such should not miss watching the sunrise on the sunrise cruise they had booked. When your group finally contacted us, I explained that we had tried to contact you and the cruise had to leave or it would have missed the actual sunrise. I could tell from the response and others in the group that I could hear in the background, that you were very unhappy and not impressed that the cruise had gone without you. I understand your frustration at watching the boat leave, but I do feel that due to missing the sunrise cruise, there was a lot of negativity brought onboard the boat when you eventually boarded the 10am cruise. I also don`t understand why you would have expected an apology from the guide when you were the ones who ran late for the sunrise cruise? He was not at fault for departing when he finally had to, but his lack of apology appears to have increased the negativity felt towards him prior to the cruise even commencing. Unfortunately, our guide also felt this after your initial confrontation with him when you arrived for the 10am cruise and it completely affected his performance operating the cruise. The information from the guide was correct, that you would have been advised to be there 10 minutes prior to the cruise. Our reservations system automatically sends out sms reminders to all passengers 2 days prior to cruises with directions to the cruise and advising to ensure they are there 10 minutes prior to the departure time. Unfortunately, you did not receive this information due to the incorrect contact number that was entered by your group when making your own online booking. I`m sorry that you missed your cruise because you were running late. I`m also sorry that we were unable to contact you, due to you providing us with an incorrect contact number. I also apologise for providing you a replacement cruise as soon as possible due to the above errors, free of charge. I`m sorry if our guide did not apologise or show enough compassion to you in the situation. However, i find your review very disappointing given the reputation of our business and the fact that the situation only occurred predominantly due to errors made that were not our fault.
This is the best cruise to take in all of the NT. The amount of wildlife you see is unbelievable. It is closer to Darwin than Kakadu and we saw so much more at the Corrobaree billabong than we did at Kakadu. The amont of different birds was amazing. The giant lotus' was beautiful. I would recommend this place to anyone.
Hi Vesna Thank you for your amazing review and 5star rating. Corroboree Billabong is spectacular and our guides love sharing it with our guests. We appreciate your high recommendation.
