1 hour Daintree River wildlife and crocodile cruise on the only solar electric boat on the Daintree river. The boat it is nice and quiet and there are no petrol fumes or exhaust , it is also good for getting close to the wildlife without disturbing it. We aim to treat this fragile ecosystem with respect and have minimal impact, our boat does not create a wake so we do not erode the mangroves. We are the only boat with "Croc Cam"; a digital video with a very good zoom for showing hard to see animals on a big screen. Wildlife includes Salt Water Crocodiles, snakes, frogs, and birds and also interpretation of the mangrove environment. The business is locally family owned and operated and has been going since 2002. We offer a unique eco experience with minimal impact; see, hear and smell nature at its best. We also offer longer two or three hour cruises by bookings only, maximum 10 people great for photography or those that want a longer more personalised tour.

Made a last minute booking for family to spend an afternoon in Port Douglas. The trip was just as described, perfect relaxing ride around the Daintree River. Even though it was in warm November and we were warned that the crocs may be in deeper water, we were still lucky enough to catch one in the shallows! From the outset, the hosts advised that we were welcome to come back another day for free if we didn't see a croc
Amazing tour

The best way to see crocs in QLD! Thanks to Mark for an informative cruise! Despite not being the best season we were lucky to see two baby crocs and Charlotte. As well as herons and the stunning river scenery.
Very enjoyable and informative trip

Really lovely river cruise and very interesting commentary. Unfortunately only one baby crocodile was spotted but we enjoyed it so much that we are planning a repeat trip!
Well worth a visit! This is not a zoo!

We really enjoyed looking for the crocodiles. Our guide was very knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to see 4 crocodiles--2 babies and 2 adults, one of which climbed onto the riverbank and consumed a fish that it had just caught. We felt privileged to see them in their natural habitat.
I wish I'd passed on this

Listen, I understand it's not a zoo and you won't necessarily get a good look at crocs every time, but there needs to be something more. I assumed the boat would glide through scenic parts of the river - we actually just took a lap through the most ordinary stretch adjacent to the launch. I figured that maybe there were some other animals (interesting birds...I don't know) to take up the slack. Nope. I considered this trip a colossal waste of time - especially since 11:45 was the only available "early" time so it delayed our whole foray into Daintree for nothing.
Great Seats and No Gassy Fumes

Informative and nice experience- we like that the seating ran all around the inside perimeter of the boat rather than rows of seating that run across the e center of the boat -- this allowed each person to have a seat along the water's edge rather than those in the middle having to move to get a better view. And also loved that we were not accosted by nauseous fuel fumes from the boat since it was solar generated. I would give this experience a 5 Star, but to no fault of the operator, we did not see any large crocodiles - only a couple baby ones. Which was still cool
An hour very well spent.

An excellent hour on the river. Mark was incredibly informative and able to add a lot of additional context. Saw a couple of the females, a baby, and scarface, the large male. Lovely to be on a smaller boat so close to the water too. Thoroughly recommended.
