Able to get up close to huge crocodiles. Underwater viewing into the fish tanks and crocodile tanks good. Feeding demonstrations good though the keeper doing the fish feeding was hard to hear and the microphone for the crocodile feeding kept breaking up. Reptile house interesting. Spent a couple of hours here. Wasn't very busy.

Was nice and easy, went straight to Crocosaurus Cove and collected my ticket, walked around and watched the big crocs being fed, jumped on a bus opposite the Cove entrance and went for a lap around Darwin. Jumped off a couple spots and had a beer or two and jumped back on to finish the tour back where I started. Great day
