5.00This cruise is a very relaxed adventure whilst hunting for river wildlife. A drink from a variety of choices together with a tasty snack of biscuits, dip and cheese is included in the fare. The crew is informative and professional. We witnessed two crocodiles on the river bank together with an abundance of bird life. A worthwhile experience at a very reasonable rate.
Lunchtime low tide cruise

5.00We took the lunchtime low tide cruise in the hope of seeing some crocodile 🐊🐊 as my husband was eager to see. But sadly it wasn't our day .but one to get seen. Loved the old boat. Richard was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about the land and Riverways.the young girl helping unfortunately I can't remember her name. Was also friendly and constantly collecting the empty drink's container. The shared lunch pack was very enjoyable and we found it enough for the two of us . U can purchase additional drinks after Ur complimentary one. It was a nice relaxing way to cruise the river very enjoyable 😁
