This isn't a job you'll find anywhere else in the world.
Adelaide River Cruises is looking for a passionate, reliable tour guide to join our small crew on the Adelaide River floodplain — home to Dominator, Brutus, and some of the largest wild saltwater crocodiles ever recorded.
You'll be working on the water daily, introducing guests from around the world to one of the most extraordinary wildlife encounters in Australia. If you're a genuine Top End local who loves this country and knows how to read a crowd, we want to hear from you.
THE ROLE:
Jumping Crocodile Tour Guide — Adelaide River Cruises

⛅ Ongoing wet season work available, weather dependent
YOU MUST HAVE:
Previous tour guide experience in the NT
Current Coxswain certificate — or genuine willingness to obtain one
Current First Aid certificate
Reliable transport to Middle Point
HIGHLY REGARDED:
Previous experience working with crocodiles or reptiles
Kakadu or Top End wildlife tour guiding background
WHAT YOU GET:
One of a very small number of licensed roles in Australia that involves building real working relationships with wild estuarine crocodiles — this is genuinely rare
Above industry award pay rate
Free tours for family and friends (within reason — we're not running a shuttle service 😄)
Tourism industry perks — inter-operator experiences and partnerships across the Top End.
