Really lovely place with friendly, welcoming service. Our guide was fantastic — extremely knowledgeable, engaging and clearly passionate about the crocodiles. This was honestly the best crocodile cruise we’ve been on, and we’ve been on quite a few! Stumpy the crocodile was definitely the highlight — he was the best! He even seemed to enjoy getting his photo taken and gave us some fantastic photo opportunities. Such a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommend
It was amazing Rod our guide was funny and super knowledgeable and didn’t give up until he had delivered what he had promised. It was recommended to us and we will recommend to others.
We had Rob as our tour guide and it was absolutely phenomenal. He answered all our curious questions and knew so much about the history of crocs and the species in general. Cannot recommend them enough!! I felt safe the whole time.
We had a great time, saw lots of crocs and the guide was very informative
What a great experience! Tour guide was relaxed and informative. He really had a feel for the river and the crocs.
Very, very, very good. Loved seeing the crocs jump out and grab the bait.
Amazing experience!!! You get to see crocodiles in their natural habitat and the guides make it such an immersive experience. Although it seems scary it’s so very safe - they make sure of it!
Absolutely amazing! Worth every cent. This is one of those experiences that should definitely not be missed. Learnt an enormous amount and seeing these awesome animals in their natural environment was stunning. DO IT!!
Great trip with very informative guide. Heaps of crocs and got several to play the game and jump out of the water - scary how many crocs are out there!
The tour was amazing. The guide had a great sense of humour and was very knowledgeable. We would do the tour again.
