CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5We did the VIP tour with Thomas. He was so informative, we got to see all the big crocs, feed Wendall, their largest crocodile , feed the baby crocs, hold a baby croc. In the reptile section we got to hold a couple of lizards and snakes. It was worth every dollar and I would do it again when in Darwin Amazing tourSSimon B
CoupleVerified booking2 days ago4/5Vey much enjoyed the cruise, the sunset, the ambience, the friendly crew, and the dining, However.... when it came to the desserts I was very excited to see Apple and Muntrie crumble on the menu but when I fronted up to the bain-marie imagine my utter despair at seeing the Muntries had been replaced with Mangoes. WHERE ARE THE MUNTRIES ? Look, rather than risk a diplomatic incident with the French crew member who wasn't even sure what a Muntrie even is, I humbly forward you a link to https://www.niniwell.com.au/ who is a mate of mine who farms them in Western Victoria and sends them all round Oz. He advises there is a shortage due to climate constraints but he has plenty freeze dried with your name on them. I'm here to help so if you get a supply of them please send a couple of portions down to me in Melbourne and I'l try and give you that fifth star.RRosanna Z
CoupleVerified bookingYesterday4/5My sister-in-law and I enjoyed our sunset cruise. Our outdoor dining was amazing. A perfect dining experience to see the sunset. Our only complaint unfortunately, was that by the time we came to get our meal there was not much left, especially your desserts, apart from this we had a very memorable cruise.
