    We had a wonderful time. The sunset trip is very highly recommended. Lots of bird life and crocs close up. Our pilot and guide was Gecko and he was brilliant. Full of information delivered in an entertaining manner. It is always wonderful to see someone with a bit of passion for what they do!

  • Peaceful.

    Very informative, great guides, beautiful scenery, big crocs and good sized boats. Lovely cold water provided. Our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. Water irises or Lillie’s were beautiful. Would be magical in the wet season. Great for all ages and easily accessible.
