Bruce Belcher's Daintree River Cruises offer a one-hour wild life cruise. We are enthusiastic, honest, exciting and informative. We are keen bird watchers and have a good eye for crocodiles and tree snakes, with crocodiles being spotted on 98% of trips, particularly in cooler months. We operate from our home on the banks of the Daintree River in a secluded location from a private jetty in a wildlife botique facility. Come and relax in our garden room, listen to the surrounding wildlife and enjoy a complimentary Daintree Tea or coffee. Peruse our tropical souvenir collection.

“I enjoy seeing the delight on people’s faces as they see crocodiles and other animals in the wild for the first time, just as I did on my first encounters."

"I have travelled the world during my youth, but there is nowhere that suits me more than the Daintree River."

Hello, my name is Bruce Belcher and my family and I and my guides are celebrating 31 years as a tour guide on the Daintree River.

As a small family business we have a great lifestyle with our own private boutique facility on the riverbank, in a Conservation Park.

My involvement in tourism started from humble beginnings as a trainee tour guide, learning the knack of how to spot wildlife – so 40,000 trips later I have an eagle eye for spotting wildlife and I have trained Ray and Griffith, my son along the same path.

I offer you a one hour cruise observing wildlife, with an emphasis on crocodile spotting. Other aspects include tree-snakes, pythons and bird-life, natural history of the region and the mangrove eco-system. Binoculars are provided.

My obsession with the river comes from my childhood and growing up with the aborigines on Mornington Island, in the Gulf of Carpenteria, where I learned a lot about what we are presenting.

SOUVENIR SHOP

M.V. Mangrove Jack ll

was was designed to be

comfortable, quiet and to

maximise observation.

The comfortable seats face

forward for best viewing. They

are padded and have back

rests.

The boat is covered and we

have clear screens in the event

of rain. The boat, being small

and more personalised allows

me to interact with guests.

Therefore loud speakers are

not always required.
