Fabulous Kakadu - Fabulous tour guide, Rick, who was informative, knowledgeable and has amazing energy and passion. The bus was a bit tight but the Tour guide compensated for it.

Magic trip through the Kakadu landscape - Very enjoyable trip from Darwin to Kakadu taking in a range of sights and with a wealth of knowledge passed on by our guide Tim. Good size group, coach comfortable, interesting mix of places visited. Croc Cruise was better than expected because (a) the crocs were completely in their natural environment and respected thoughout and (b) our host was super entertaining and knowledgeable. Tim announced drive times between each stop so you could plan toilet stops, food purchases etc as required. Overall a very good choice for anyone wishing to gat a taste of Kakadu.

Fabulous Kakadu and jumping crocodile cruise day - What a fabulous, albeit long, day. Tim shared interesting commentary throughout and went out of his way to make our day special. We did the jumping crocodile cruise option and it was amazing!

Day trip to Kakadu with a side trip - My husband and I went on this tour yesterday. The guide/driver, Tim, was very good, gave us a lot of background knowledge and was excellent in pointing out native animals that we saw, his Rock Art walk was excellent, although it was so hot we didn't participate in the walk to the lookout. Now for the minuses...the bus was a hired one, and really was not at all suited to the trip. No leg room at all, no place to store your bags, no seat pockets for your glasses and drink bottles. Had to nurse these on our laps. OK for a short trip, but we were on this trip for four hours straight on the way home. Had a ten minute break at the half way point, by this time, ten hours into the tour, between the logistics of juggling your possessions and the hardness of the seats, with no leg room at all.

It was a very long day,... - It was a very long day, made a lot longer as we were an hour late getting back into Darwin. Not sure why that was as there was only 3 activities.

Awful trip after seeing jumping crocodiles - The 1st part (jumping crocodiles) was the only part worth doing. The 2nd part involved driving 100s Km (with only trees visible) to see 3 bits of Aboriginal rock art. Anyone with walking or health issues should avoid this part. No food or drink was included. Probably the worst trip I've ever been on
