Adelaide River Jumping Croc Cruise Half Day Tour

The activity provides hotel pick-up and drop-off, which is very convenient. If you only stay in Darwin for a few days, joining this half-day tour is a good choice. The location is Adelaide River, which is nearly an hour's drive from the CBD. The tour bus has air-conditioned and comfortable seats, and the driver and tour guide introduces scenic spots along the way. The participants were mostly Western couples, elderly people, etc. The itinerary was easy and it stopped at three scenic spots. It took about an hour to take a boat ride to watch jumping crocodiles. The scenery was beautiful. We were also taken to the scenic tower and fish pond to feed the turtles. Overall it's not bad. It is recommended for tourists who are visiting Darwin for the first time and want to see wild crocodiles.

Great half day trip, many jumping crocs, the boat guide talks a lot on the boat (a bit too much) and also the bus driver as well (interesting actually, as he talks about about the history of the area). Bus takes you to a look out and an old rice paddy dam. Nice easy relaxing tour. Tip: take snacks, sunscreen, water and a hat.

Recommend for those who want to go for jumping crocodile cruise but not driving in Darwin. Our guide Jess has been friendly and gave plenty of information. The guide on crocodile cruise was humorous and made the activity fun. It was amazing to see so many crocodiles in Adelaide river. They made sure to feed one crocodile at each side of boat so everyone gets to see properly. There is a stop at Howards spring park for a short break to feed barramundi.

If there is no way to participate in a one-day tour, I recommend this half-day tour. The distance is not too far, and there are many hotel locations where you can choose to pick up and drop off.

I have seen crocs before but this experience is much different and much much better. The experience is more raw and exotic seeing the crocodiles in their natural habitat. Cruising around the river with more than a thousand crocs underneath you and some just chillingly looking at you was crazy and unforgettable. Definitely a steal.

interesting experience. all arrangements are well organized. although it's a short trip, it allowed participants to see so much so they can offer.

Saw a couple of crocs, but they only just get out of the water. Both crocs were older and missing limbs. Boat driver was very good and entertaining. Highlight was when they feed the Black Kites, watching them catch the meat. The Howard Springs stop was nice, but we drove straight past Fogg Dam which was disappointing as I booked this more expensive tour because of the extra stops. Bus driver was good. Sitting down back of the coach, I could insect's bite my lower legs, had red spots afterwards.

Excellent service. You can hear the snap of the crocodiles.

Very fun, half-day trip is not too fast, the car is located behind the Mitchell Center in Darwin city center, comfortable bus transfer, tea is also available in the car, very intimate. In addition to seeing crocodiles, there are some natural attractions along the way. The tour guide is very professional. It explains many of Darwin's natural ecology, animals, etc. along the way. There are also professionals on the crocodile boat, and they are all local experts. Of course, the explanation is in English, and because most of the cars are in the same car. It’s an English-speaking person, so the speed is very fast.) In addition, the performance of feeding the eagle is also quite good.

If you can get past the bad jokes from Booky and Linda, you will enough a wonderful afternoon on the Adelaide River seeing the jumping crocodiles! I was surprised to see how many are actually living in the wild. The trip includes a visit to Fogg Dam where you will see wetlands wildlife and small wallabies. Our Bus driver Drew was also amazing giving us a very thorough history on Darwin during the drive. A must see if you are visiting Darwin!
