A wonderful afternoon - We were met with iced tea and cookies before setting off. Really knowledgeable guide answered all our questions and took us to all the best spots. We saw a baby croc and a mother guarding her nest. Could have spent whole day sailing down the river.Perfect afternoon .

It's incredible! - It was an incredible tour! We saw a crocodile and the tour guide gave us a lot of time to take pictures. He told us a lot about the crocodiles living in the Daintree River and the plants. It is nice to see the crocodiles in their natural habitat. They are not attracted and this is a good thing.

Dominant male croc made an appearance - Very knowledgeable guide who knew the river, and croc behaviour, like the back of his hand. We were treated to a full view of the dominant male croc who decided to sun himself on the riverbed (and apparantly hasn't done so in 3 weeks). For a tour completely beholden to which animals decide to show themselves, and in high tide at the time - we did very well. Plus a nice boat trip up the river and back!

Great day out - We drove from Port Douglas. Good roads with not much traffic. Pleasant welcome including coffee or iced tea. Craig was our skipper and guide. He was very knowledgeable and we saw quite a few crocs. All up a great day out.

Awesome Experience - This was a great tour and a great location. The check in area has heaps of information about the local area and the staff were very friendly. On the tour the guide is clearly very knowledgeable and gave heaps of information , not just on the crocs but the area and other wildlife too. The operator was respectful of the crocs and we got close to multiple crocs and I loved the way he would turn the boat around so both sides of the boat could see. The boat itself was small so made for good viewing and not overcrowded. I would highly recommend this trip.
