What a great day! - So glad a 4WD bus vehicle turned up to pick us up after the cyclone had passed through Litchfield.
We were still able to get through to most places in Litchfield National Park. The water falls were absolutely spectacular after all the rain. Our driver guide Rick was a real character with fantastic knowledge of the area and all its wildlife and vegetation, he also had a wicked sense of humour.
Do your self a favor and book this tour, you won’t regret it!

Despite rain, still very nice - This tour should be more in the dry season, the advantage that it rained a lot the previous days was that the falls were very spectacular. The guide Lee was great, a lot of knowledge and entertaining told!

Top adventure to Litchfield & Fogg Damn led by Rick ;) - ‘Rick’ took us around the NP really knew his stuff & led us to all the beautiful waterfalls ;) The termite mounds interesting too. I would have loved a dip in one of the falls but seeing them was great anyway ;)

Great Litchfield Park Day trip including crocodile jumping tour :) - I had a great day trip with Rick around Litchfield NP including croc jumping morning cruise, loads of cool waterfalls, termite mounds, loads of wildlife - crocs, wallabies, buffalo, spiders, birds etc and a great pub stop at Berry Springs pub on the way back to Darwin.
I thoroughly recommend it and great to see it in the wet :)

Recommended tour - A wonderful, eventful day.
Because of the rainy season we could not go swimming, which did not harm the tour, because our guide Pascal showed us wonderful waterfalls and drew attention to much that you would not have seen. And a lot of information. Highly recommended.

Wilderness experience - Fantastic experience seeing crocodiles in their natural environment and the guide was very knowledgeable. Really interesting seeing the waterfalls at full capacity after the cyclone. Rick ran a great commentary. Shame about the sardine can of a bus we were in very squished for us taller people

Mind blowing waterfalls - Excellent tour, Pasqal was an amazing guide, full of interesting history and information about the wildlife, geology and surrounds. He took us to amazing waterfalls, when one was closed for swimming he took us to an extra couple of waterfalls which were mind blowing!! Bus was very tired, old, cramped, noisy which made the 10 hour journey uncomfortable and tiring. The bus broke down at one point, but Pasqal was amazing at getting it going again. A more comfortable bus would have made all the difference to what was a brilliant tour.

Poor, not the bus drivers fault, should provide refund - When picked up at the designated hotel, bus was late, we were all told that if we had booked direct with Utopia we could have all been picked up from out individual hotels.
When we arrived to the Adelaide River jumping crocodiles, after driving up and down the river for an hour and hearing all the excuses why there are no crocodiles, we never saw a crocodile.
Once we entered Litchfield NP, we were then told we could not do any swimming in any of the locations, even though at Buley Rockpool people were simply sitting in the edge of the top rock pool with no issues from flowing water.
We then got stuck in a downpour of rain when trying to look at another waterfall, even though the tour guide said it won’t rain if we are quick.
Then the termite mounds had either collapsed, again the poor tour guide apologised for that, then the remaining standing termite mounds were overgrown with spear grass which is conducive to the time of the year.
The tour bus driver was good at trying to make the best out of the day.
However, overall we were disappointed to spend $940 and all we got was a bus trip from Darwin and Litchfield NP and back with a storey teller, who we think felt guilty because of the day we had whereby we saw nothing the tour description said we would experience.
