An absolutely thrilling and unforgettable experience! Seeing the massive crocodiles leap out of the water for food was a true spectacle. Our guide Boggie was knowledgeable and entertaining, making the tour both fun and educational. A must-do activity in Darwin! Highly recommended.

Very good short trip to the Adelaide River to see crocodiles ‘jumping’ (i.e. swimming upwards) to grab meat. Artificial activity for the crocs of course, but permitted and entertaining for humans. Lucky to see a sea eagle grabbing some food. Our driver / guide was Adrian, and he added a drive around the Fogg Dam wetlands to see kingfishers, egret, cormorants etc. A fun trip.
Great experience
