What you can expect

Experience the world’s oldest rainforest on this 60 minute Daintree River Cruise taking you deep into the natural habitat of Estuarine Crocodiles. Gliding along the calm river, local guides will share the secrets of this unique tropical ecosystem. Keep your eyes firmly peeled on the horizon and you may just spot some crocodiles on the river banks warming up in the sun or popping up to the surface to take a breath.

While crocodile sightings are never guaranteed, the 60 minute Daintree River Cruise is a wonderful way to experience the ancient rainforest, flocks of birds and schools of fish. Daintree River Cruises are available at 9.30am, 11am, 12pm and 2pm and a complimentary morning tea or afternoon tea are included in each ticket.
