Jumping crocs… - 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.

Croc tour and waterfall/water hole swim experience - Awesome experience would definitely recommend! Our tour guide Carlos was incredible, knowledgeable, attentive and super pleasant! He made the whole day! The team at the croc experience also made us feel safe and comfortable and the best part was the animals are in their natural habitat! Finally the incredible swim at the water holes anz the waterfalls were an amazing sight! Absolutely loved it!

Brilliant - Excellent informative commentary both to and from the Adelaide River, and the rough looking, but entertaining boat captain was brilliant. He answered every question thrown at him with humour and accuracy. 👍

No crocodiles - We only saw 2 crocodiles and this would be because you don’t actually feed them you tease them. Nothing like the photos you advertise.
