To The Billabong and Back - The whole experience was wonderful. Connie was a really lovely lady who was full of interesting information and clearly loved imparting this to all on board. Really loved seeing the special Jabiru couple (birds) and the white belly sea eagles and their spectacular nests. Thanks for a wonderful day Connie.

Magical tour with something for everyone. - The tour guide, Evan, was so knowledgeable throughout the day. There were so many birds to observe and photograph, as well as coming across a croc on the bank. Evan was then able to give us so much information about the habits and physical structure of this female croc. The boat ride was the major feature of our first holiday in NT.

A great billabong experience! - This is a great excursion. Our guide, Evan knows a lot and is very entertaining which makes this the perfect combination of funny and informative. We saw lots of different birds and other wildlife and although not the ideal time of the year we even saw a 3m saltie sunning on the banks. What more could you want!

A full day of highlights - From the moment Connie picked us up from our accommodation to the the moment we got back on the bus to return to Darwin after the wetlands cruise, the information conveyed by Connie never faltered. She was entertaining, informative and very friendly.
The cruise on the wetlands was wonderful, relaxing and filled with highlights. Obviously you are at the mercy of the season, the day, the weather as to what you see on the billabong but we luckily saw some absolute highlights and Connie was more than prepared to drive the boat wherever the action was.
From bus driver to boat driver to informative guide to lunch waitress Connie was amazing.
We enjoyed our day very much.
