Saw a baby croc!!!! - Great cruise! Not the best time of year due to the heat for seeing the big crocs but still incredibly interesting and we were pleased we did it. Managed to spot a hatchling (1 year old) crocodile! It was all that was needed to make it a great trip! Want to return in winter to try and catch a glimpse of Scarface!!!! Highly recommend
