Do the croc cruise!! - A fantastic day! We were picked up from our accomodation on time. Our guide for the day Danny was an absolute legend! Great communication and organisation, highly knowledgeable, safe driver and took us to a cracking waterhole for a swim when the regular one was unavailable for swimming due to crocs. Highly recommend doing the croc cruise. It was so cool!

Look at other tour companies... - The experience itself was amazing but we would choose a different tour company if we had our time again. The bus seats were really uncomfortable with our knees pushed up against the seats in front of ours. The rear of the bus had very limited suspension and the driver Carlos was speeding so we were bounced around a lot. Carlos was so focused on driving fast that he missed our turn-off a couple of times. To top it all off, we were left behind at the croc cruise and had to contact their head office to phone them to come back and get us, as they didn't even realise that they were two customers short. It was lucky we were left behind where we still had phone reception - had it happened at Litchfield Park we would have been stranded for goodness knows how long. The croc cruise was amazing though, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We can't remember their names but very knowledgeable and entertaining. We highly recommend including the croc cruise in your tour!
