Wallaroo Tours are a small outfit but that is all for the good in my book. We had Pat as our guide and he is wikipedia on legs!! A bit verbal...but that is worth it for the knowledge he shares about the land ,crocs, termites and local culture. The lunch was more than adequate and the prawns and champers at... More

We had Patrick for our 1 day Litchfield Tour and it was one of the best holiday experiences either of us had ever had. Wallaroo Tours are small - 20 people max - and this really adds to the experience as you can form a real relationship with the guide and even some of the other travellers. It is a... More

The day starts early at 7am, and you are not back in your hotel until around 8pm, so it is a long day, but there is a lot packed into that day. We are a family with 3 children (9, 11 and 13), and the kids loved the day. Our tour guide Pat, never shuts up, but that is half... More

We spent a wonderful day swimming in waterfalls of Litchfield National Park (the ones without Crocs!), delicious lunch beside another waterfall, watched the Crocodiles jumping for food beside their private boat, finishing with prawns and champagne while viewing the sunset over the wetlands. Our guide, Patrick, was amazing. Pure local, and a cross between Steve Irwin and Malcolm Douglas. The... More

Ben made the day on this tour- very knowledgable, congenial and willing to as ll questions. The up close encounters with crocs were awesome, but so was Ben's concern for safety Hee kept things moving at a good pace all day, but with lots of little breaks , He continuously gave interesting commentary, but also let us have quiet time...

Our tour guide Ben was relaxed and knowledgeable, setting the tone for day trip that turned out to be fun, informative and a brilliant wind-down from the hassles oif being in transit. Our visit to the Adelaide River and Litchfield National Park was sensational. Our drive became a really fun road trip with stop-offs at roadside mango stalls, emergency coffee... More

Our tour guide was Ben, he was very knowledgeable and more than happy to answer any questions you may have. I brought my young son along and he found the day exhausting with a 'seen one croc, seen them all' type attitude. It's a big day, I wouldn't recommend it for any kids under 10! The croc jumping on the... More

Our guide was the awesome Pat, the most interesting guy we've ever met! The group was really small and full of all different age ranges (from 20-70). Pat was so informative and chatty, I don't think he stopped talking the whole trip! If you don't know much about Australian history then you definitely will at the end of day. We... More

I am not a tour person but as this was our first visit to Darwin we decided to buy a tour and be the typical visitor. We started the day with a pick up at the hotel, Rueben was our guide and at once made us feel welcome. The crocodile cruise on the river was worthwhile and we saw plenty... More
