Great adventure that took us 6 hours. We saw plenty of hatchlings but no grown up crocs as they were hiding under the water. Nevertheless, the journey was pure fun. Thank you!

The team were outstanding. Professional, knowledgeable and so thoughtful in their food preparation and caring for our needs . Unfortunately we only saw 2 adult crocs in the water and a few baby ones on the bank, but overall a pleasant day . My teens stil enjoyed the experience .

Excellent tour, very knowledgeable and engaged team.
Nice lunch and snack. Not just a crocodile tour but a flora and fauna tour.

I was really disappointed with the trip. Firstly the driver arrived 20 minutes late and then he forgot people in airlie so we had to go back to collect them. We then went on the boat tour and only saw small crocs. I know this can’t be helped but it was extremely disappointing. The guide was very nice but he did talk for the whole trip about old stories of huge crocs and trees which really didn’t add to seeing no big crocs. The bbq was really nice. The flora and fauna tour was extremely boring and honestly a waste of time. We drove around in a field for an hour and he told us all about the plants and flowers it really was boring. Afterwards we had afternoon tea which was very nice. The trip really isn’t suited for younger people. Honestly considering how nice airlie beach is this is not worth wasting a full day for. It’s also not worth the money I think it’s really overpriced for what you get.

Lucky to see one crocodile, and a few babies. The tour guide was a wealth of local flora and fauna knowledge and very entertaining especially when throwing meat to the hawks ( black kites) who were obviously used to the scraps. He was very interesting. A very long hot day made better by the lovely bbq lunch and damper afternoon tea.
Not for kids- especially those under 5!!

Very organised and well coordinated tour, Whitsunday Crocodile Safari made every effort to ensure we were able to see crocodiles with commentary about the area and it's flora and fauna. Probably the cleanest outdoor camp site area I've ever seen! I would recommend this tour.

We had a great day with the Steve’s and Stuart. They were funny and provided us with lots of information about Crocodiles and everything in the surrounding habitat. The Aussie BBQ was delicious and they catered for my dietary requirements which was appreciated.
We didn’t see many big crocs because of the time of year but still lots of little hatchlings to see. My favourite part of the trip was the tractor ride around the wetlands learning about the different aboriginal uses of trees.
Would recommend this trip for all ages!

The tour was amazing! The crocs were so beautiful and obviously very comfortable and familiar with the presence of the tour boat on their river. The guides know the bigger ones by name and demonstrate a very cool relationship with these reptiles. Also so cool to try some traditional Aussie damper and tea, like they made way back when! The guides were very knowledgeable and the experience highlighted ethics and the value of environmental conservation so that we can continue to enjoy and benefit from these natural landscapes and amazing animals. No altering of croc behaviour (with food or pestering), very respectful, a truly incredible life moment.

There were Crocs! Not a good time for viewing as this is beginning of mating season and they spend more time in the water, but still saw about 10 adults and as many juveniles.
The trail ride was a little bogan but was needed to make a day of the excursion. Not a Disneyland type of attraction but good to see crocodiles in their natural environment and learn a little about their habits.
