Great day in nature with lots of wildlife - We had a great day with our guide Evan! He has a lot of knowledge and experience about nature, wildlife and history. During the trip he is very enthusiastic and tells about both Darwin and all the things you see around you in the bus and on the boat. We saw plenty of special birds, like Jabiru and white-bellied sea-eagle. He put a lot of effort in spotting both salties and freshies (crocodiles), and we saw multiple! The lunch was also good, eating some bread/meat/salad while watching all the birds around us. We had a lovely day!

Excellent eco experience - This full day cruise was excellent. Our guide, Evan, was very knowledgeable & entertaining. He was passionate about his job and had a great affinity with nature. We saw two crocs, a freshie & a salty, numerous birds including kites, white-bellied sea eagles, jabirus, brolgas & egrets. The water lilies were in full bloom too. We also had a lovely lunch on board & a stop at the pub on the return trip for a refreshing drink. Would thoroughly recommend this trip
