Just a great day out… exploring a beautiful part of Australia… Gary, our guide was wonderful, and his insight and stories made the trip educational, interesting and fun. The crocodile expedition was the highlight, seeing the big old man croc, “Scarface” and two young crocs…

What a fantastic day. Rob was packed full of information and answered every question we threw at him. Saw everything we hoped to see plus had an amazing lunch at a spectacular location. Would highly recommend. Our only disappointment was not having enough time to see the other 2 tours they offer. Based on this experience we can’t wait to be back and will definitely be booking again! Thanks for a great day Rob!

I can't rate this tour highly enough. Our guide Rob was absolutely fantastic. His enthusiasm and care for the area was so contagious. Everywhere we went I was amazed by everything he pointed out; the nature, the history, the culture. The locations we visited were incredible. It felt like such a privilege to be able to see them. Although it sounds cliché I do believe it's an experience I'll look back on for many years. Huge thanks to Rob for making it so special. If you're going to do one tour do this one, you won't regret it.

Had a fantastic day exploring Mossman Gorge, Daintree and the Daintree River, & Cape Tribulation. Our Guide was Jens He was informative with lots of stories and tales to tel. We had a good mix of ages and people for Australia & around the world. There was great banter onboard particularly between Jens and his fellow driver Rob. E very one really enjoyed the day- particularly the Daintree river Cruise and the swim in Mossman Gorge.

This was a truly incredible experience with our amazing guide Steve. The Daintree is stunning and this tour showcased it in a really comprehensive way. There were so many activities packed into one day but things really ran like clockwork. I loved everything from the rainforest walks to the crocodile river tour and the delicious lunch. A big thank you to Steve who made it such a great experience. His knowledge of everything to do with the Daintree was truly impressive - there was no question that he was not able to answer! Last but not least the Daintree ice cream was a major highlight!

A great day out in a comfortable mini bus which takes you around the tropical sites of FNQ. Enjoy the Daintree crossing and wind your way to Cape Tribulation. A beautiful beach but sadly no swimming. There is plenty to learn along the day which includes a boat trip, lunch and short walks. The guide, Rob, was full of local information which helped you understand both nature and the community. The lunch plate incorporated lots of different local and exotic fruits from all over the world and you learnt about the history and its provenance. The boat trip needless to say included an up close and personal with the local croc. All in all well worth the time and money.
