10/10 recommend - Amazing tour! We saw two crocs and lots of baby ones! Our tour guide was so informative and made it an enjoyable experience. Was comfortable how the boat was not packed in and we were able to get close to the crocs to see them in their habitat. Added bonus having Peppa on the boat, she was so good.

Friendly tour guide and lots of wildlife to see! - Very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide who was keen to share his love of the Daintree river ecosystem! We managed to see a female crocodile and some baby crocodiles, a kingfisher, tree frogs, and a mangrove heron. A nice small boat which allows you to get up close to the wildlife. Would recommend!

Best Croc tour in Port Douglas Area - The quiet boat really helped the overall experience. Very knowledgeable guide who obviously has been in the area for decades. He knew the all crocodiles and where they like to hang out in the river beds. Added bonus was Doug his dog. Highly recommended.

Great trip getting up close with Crocs - This was a great trip. The groups are small and the guides very knowledgeable. It was our boy's first boat trip and he had an amazing time. Saw several crocs including some of the largest in the area. Well worth doing if you're in the area.

100% recommend - Faboulous company, very passionate about their work. Our guide Mark was super friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about all the wildlife on the river. When we didn’t see any crocs on the morning tour he offered for us to come back later in the day to try again. We’re so glad we did as we saw so many crocs in the arvo. Thank you for sharing your passion with us!
