Overview

The operator drives about 60km south-east of Darwin to the Marrakai wetlands, home to 117 reptile species and 280 bird species. The one-hour boat cruise is run by one of only four licensed operators on the river, and you watch wild saltwater crocodiles launch themselves out of the water.

The tour includes a stop at an iconic Aussie pub, air-conditioned mini-coach travel, a driver guide and pick-up and drop-off at selected Darwin inner-city points. Meals are at your own expense.
