기억에 남는 활동

25달러정도의 할인티켓으로 입장, 1시간 반정도의 투어동안 5마리의 악어와 2마리의 뱀을 관찰함. 투어 가이드의 설명이 매우 좋았고 모든 사람들을 배려해서 악어와 뱀을 볼 수 있었음. 강력히 추천함

Thank you for taking the time to share your positive review of your visit. Observing five crocodiles and two snakes during your tour must have been quite an exciting adventure. The fact that the tour guide provided a very informative and engaging explanation only adds to the quality of the experience. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated, and it will undoubtedly help others looking for an enjoyable and educational wildlife tour. We hope you'll have the opportunity to visit again in the future and explore even more of what this amazing area has to offer. Thank you for your visit and for sharing your positive feedback!

A variety of sightings on this cruise.

We went on the 2:30pm Cruise last week. Very friendly staff and guide. We managed to see a very large Alpha Croc on the river bank, a baby croc plus birds and a snake. My tip would be to try and go earlier in the day up to midday when you are likely to see more Crocs active.

Nice

Nice tour, more an entertainment than just giving hard facts. You get good free coffee or tea before or after the tour.

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We are delighted you had a nice time on your cruise and found it to be a bit more entertaining then just receiving hard facts. Glad you enjoyed the coffee too. Thank you for choosing to cruise with us.

Best Daintree River cruise

Had an awesome afternoon cruising with Bruce’s partner. The love of the river and intimate knowledge of the crocs we saw was shared in a comfortable, friendly way. The education given to us about the effects of the December floods and cyclone on the river and ecosystem was a welcome bonus. Scratch was a great cruiser too!

From Bruce Belcher's Daintree River Cruise

Thank you for your fantastic review! It sounds like you had an incredible time on the Daintree River cruise with us. The passion for the river and expertise in crocodiles that our guides have, make the experience truly memorable. It's wonderful to hear that you also appreciated learning about the impacts that the recent floods and cyclone had on the ecosystem. Thanks for sharing your experience!
