km's including traffic lights, approximately one hour's drive

2.
Will I see crocodiles?
We
are dealing with wild prehistoric animals, once facing extinction,
every cruise is completely different.
On very rare occasions when the river is in flood or the weather
is unusually hot,
we may not see a saltwater crocodile. This is incredibly rare
though.
This
is one of the most reliable Wildlife
Cruises in the world.

3.
Which cruise is the best?
The morning cruise tends to be packed with 4.W.D Safari's
on the way to Kakadu National Park. If you are an early riser.
The midday cruises
tend to be independent travelers.
The
last cruise is often quiet.Crocodiles
come to the boats on every cruise. (See question two)
Some people wish to see the mud banks. As the river is tidal,
to predict the low tide,
its opposite to Darwin ie, High
tide in Darwin is low tide at the river.
Check the local newspaper.

What do you think of Steve Irwin? Both
Steve Irwin and Bob Bredle have done amazing things for tourist
promotion,
education programs, documentaries, even children's books.
We do not however agree with making it seem that interaction
with crocodiles is possible in the wild. It is not!
"Crickey, this crocodile cruise is better than
a Steve Irwin Movie!!"
