Excellent service and very beautiful. Highly recommended to anyone. Our host was very knowledgeable and friendly
Mark went above and beyond to show us the true crocodile lifestyle, couldn’t have asked for a better guide, he was happy to answer questions and genuinely had passion for the local nature
SO so good, our guide Ray was hilarious and so informative we literally would have been happy even without seeing crocodiles just from the comedy
