Tour Overview
Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime as we take you on Darwin’s most thrilling wildlife encounter—the ½ Day Jumping Croc Cruise on the iconic Adelaide River! Departing from the heart of the Northern Territory, this adrenaline-pumping journey will transport you just 60 km southeast to the mysterious and wildlife-rich Marrakai wetlands. Home to some of Australia’s most legendary creatures, the region is a sanctuary for the mighty saltwater crocodile, as well as hundreds of other fascinating species.

But the adventure doesn’t stop there; the wetlands are teeming with life, from barramundi swimming beneath the surface to majestic eagles soaring overhead.
This isn’t just a cruise—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get face-to-face with nature’s most impressive predators in their own backyard. So, grab your camera, hold on tight, and join us for an unforgettable journey into one of the world’s most captivating wildlife environments!
