What a way to experience the Daintree and surrounds !! The food was great, the scenery beautiful. But a special shout out to our guide Ben, who provided so much information, a lot of laughs and engaged with everyone on the tour. We highly recommend this tour.

Ben, the guide was engaging, spent time with all on the bus. His information was interesting and entertaining. The tour took in lots of places in the Daintree with brief visits but gave a good overview of the area.

An amazing day spent exploring the Daintree, Mossman Gorge and Cape Tribulation. Made even better by the excellent driving and communication skills of our driver, Kerry. Thanks for an incredible day.

My partner and I booked the calypso daintree tour last minute, our tour guide was ben and he was bloody awesome. Had so much knowledge, was very passionate, super friendly and remembered everyones names and even personally thanked each person on the tour at drop off. We loved all the stops we went to, our lunch was delicious and so was the daintree ice cream. The crocodile boat tour was also great and broke the day up. We highly recommend this tour and think it’s great value for money.

We had a great day out with Ben, our guide. He had lots of great stories to tell. That’s great, because you also spend quite a bit of time in the car, while enjoying the views of the Daintree. The croc cruise was of course a big highlight (4 big crocs in an hour), but morning coffee next to a secluded beach, great lunch, a very good walk and other interesting stops made it very good day out! Especially great if you are short on time like us. Worth to spend a few nights up in the Daintree/Cape Tribulation area of you have the time!

Our driver/guide Ben was great, very knowledgeable and very entertaining. His factual knowledge and his trivia bits were excellent. Some stops were a little rushed and the boat trip was a little disappointing. Overall a wonderful trip.

Kerry was our guide on this tour he was a great guide very informative. Was a great day out in the Daintree, we had several stops first one at Mossman Gorge morning tea was at Cape Tribulation where coffee tea muffins and fruit is served to keep you going. We did a boat trip in cooper creek to spot crocodiles and we did spot two one who was a very active female swimming across the river. Lunch was at heritage lodge and was delicious you have a few choices where Kerry rang the order through so it was ready for our arrival. From here You can swim in a fresh water hole totally recommend it we went in even in the rain it made it even more beautiful. It is rocky I wore sandals in and you can change there are toilets. From here you go to Daintree ice cream which was delicious and you get to taste flavours you normally would not. This is a seperate expense. Then it was off to a nature walk in the forest where we saw a python and some golden orb spiders on the web. If in Port Douglas this is a must do.
