40 years on. Still the real thing.
On the Adelaide River, nature writes its own show โ powerful, precise, and unforgettable. Weโve been sharing it since 1985, with a commitment to authenticity and Territory pride that hasnโt changed.
No corporate polish. No copycats. Just a family business thatโs spent four decades earning its place on the river. Every crew member knows these waters, these crocodiles, and this community โ because itโs home.
Real Territory. Real Crocodiles.
Every cruise is alive with story, science, and surprise. Itโs not staged โ itโs the wild, as it happens. Thatโs why the Adelaide River Queen and Pathfinder remain the Territoryโs most authentic wildlife experience.
Embark on an exhilarating open-air journey along the Adelaide River, where our knowledgeable skipper will guide you up close to witness the incredible power and majesty of crocodiles in their untamed WILD habitat. Experience the ultimate adventure that will leave you in awe of natureโs raw beauty!
Step aboard our custom-built, air-conditioned vessel, where individual seating ensures every guest enjoys an uninterrupted view of the mighty saltwater crocodiles that rule these waters. This is where power meets poise โ ancient predators rising from the depths, witnessed in total comfort.
Nothing comes close to this 1-hour unforgettable experience viewing Australia’s deadliest reptile, the famed Australian Salt Water Crocodile Crocodiles are often viewed in cages or enclosures, however, the chance to view the majestic jumping crocodiles 100% in the wild and their habitats is one not to be missed.
Adelaide River Queen Cruises interacts with hundreds of different crocodiles offering both educational and exciting whilst being brief enough to ensure there is minimal impact on the surrounding ecosystem.
5 custom-designed vessels (Adelaide River Queen II, Kakadu Pathfinder, Pathfinder II, Pathfinder III and Pathfinder IV) provide differing cruise experiences, all offering superior quality comfort and safety.
We also have a coffee shop, open daily, serving barista coffee, food and cold drinks. Fantastic views of the majestic Adelaide River.
Gift store, air-conditioned with gifts for every age. Toys, leather products, cards stubbie coolers and much much more.
