Interesting and educational

Published on Jan, 2025

Our guide was amazing. I learnt so much about the region and history. I’d love to do this again in the dry season to see the changes. Sights were amazing!

I strongly recommend this cruise

Published on Dec, 2024

I strongly recommend this cruise. It's effectively an Australian safari, and unlike anything that my wife and I have ever done before. In addition, the tour guide (who was new to being a tour guide) had a fascinating perspective due to his First Nations heritage. He was excellent and added a lot to our experience.

Great wildlife viewing

Published on Dec, 2024

Early morning body tour. Lots of birds, salties. Relatively cool weather. Bugs weren't bad. Beautiful scenery. Our guide, Dennis, was knowledgeable and funny!

Early morning wildlife cruise

Published on Nov, 2024

Early morning cruise featured a tremendous number of birds, fish, dozens of crocodile SD and one wallaby. Our guide was fun and knowledge. We had a great time!

Just Wonderous. Yellow Water Cruise A Must!

Published on Nov, 2024

If I could give this 10 stars, I would. This experience was almost spiritual at times. I did not realise I was so interested in our native wildlife and the incredible Kakadu landscape. We enjoyed our a.m. tour so much we booked the p.m tour . It did not disappoint. Our guide on this tour was so laid back, but so passionate about 'Country' and all wildlife that lives within and upon it . Crocodiles galore. Magnificent birdlife, dingos feeding on carcass near the waters edge, wallabies, and buffalo in the distance. The stories of both the past and present had us spellbound. Thank you, thank you, thank you Yellow Water Cruise team.
