Excellent trip! Experience of a life time. Saw lots of wildlife in the wild and the guides had a lot of knowledge
Had a great time! Loved everything about it. Early morning drive out to the camp which was easy to find, greeted by friendly staff, had a tasty BBQ Brekky on the boat, went for a ride on the airboats, watched them feed a couple crocs, went back & relaxed around the pool with a couple cold drinks & then finished the day off with a scenic helicopter flight around the area where we seen wild pigs, buffalo, crocs & birdlife. Get out of Darwin & come to this!!

Amazing experience! Would def do it again! Saw some amazing crocs and a beautiful scenery. This is one of the best tours I ever did in the NT.
We were picked up in a little bus at our hotel at 7.30am; it was a 1.5h drive to the safari camp. The tour started at 9.30am with a 1h airboat tour followed by a 1h Sweets Lagoon cruise. During the cruise, the crew prepared a fresh fish burger for everyone. After this, we did some croc feeding and we were able to take a close-up picture with a massive croc. After this we had a 10min helicopter ride in groups of 3; whilst the others were in the camp enjoying a cool beer or swimming in the pool. The tour guides were all amazing and gave us lots of information about the environment and there were some great opportunities to make some beautiful pictures! We were dropped off at the hotel at 4.30pm. Don’t forget to bring a hat and some sunnies and sunscreen!
