An awful lot of coach travel for not much content. The guide was superb, very knowledgeable. The coach was comfortable and cool. We chose the fog dam option as we were croc watching on another trip. Hardly anything to see on the day we travelled.

A great experience and a lovely way to spend a day. Rick our tour guide was very informative and made the day very enjoyable. The Adelaide river jumping crocs was well worth it and the stops along the way were very welcome for food, hydration, bathrooms and cultural enrichment.
Perfect introduction to the Northern NT

An amazing introduction to Kakadu. Rickie was a great guide - loads of interesting stories and facts. He made sure everyone on the tour enjoyed the experience. I learned a lot on the tour and will be booking one of the overnight options when I next come to Darwin

Not really sure what to expect on the trip, but it was great. Rick - our driver and guide - was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging and helpful. His tour around Ubir was fantastic. We learned so much about indigenous art work and culture due to Rick’s passion and understanding of the issues made this a valuable experience. The Adelaide River crocodile cruse was entertaining. Jack and Shane were humorous and informative. As well as the jumping crocodile, we observed Kites being fed when swooping the boat.
Beautiful Kakadu

all day tour. We took the option of the jumping crocodile experience. Tim the tour guide provided a lot of interesting information. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. It was the transition between the dry and wet season and so the tournament was not crowded. We enjoyed the rock art at ubirr and the panoramic view from the top of the rocky outcrop. Small tours are well worth it!
Awesome and highly recommended

Really interesting day out. It is a lot of driving but several stops along the way made the day go very fast. Tour guide was very informative and seemed to know the area well. I chose the Fogg Dam option and found the place fascinating. A place I would return to at different times of the year to experience the bird life. Cahills Crossing was a highlight with all the crocs hanging out in the water for fish. Highly recommend for someone like me who didn’t have a lot of time and always wanted to visit Kakadu National Park.
