Getting in and out of the bus may be difficult for some people. The first step up can be quite high, and the exact height varies depending on where the bus is parked due to the sand car parks. Of course, we are happy to assist if you require.
The overnight tour requires a moderate level of fitness and mobility and is suitable for people who can hike 3-5 km a day over uneven terrain and sandy tracks.

Great places to visit
The itinerary and our driver were great. We visited some beautiful places and learned a lot along the way. We really enjoyed morning tea, lunch, and some local ice cream. The option to swim in Mossman Gorge, or relax and take photos from the lookout, was the best part of the trip.

Ecology at its best
Had a great day with our guide Mario. He was knowlegable and informative throughout, taking every effort to ensure we all had a good time. His instructions for different drops and collections during the day were clear and concise to ensure the day went smoothly. The food stops included morning tea, a full lunch, and a visit to a fruit farm for quality ice cream! Mario kept us informed during the journey pointing out landmarks, plant species, and local and geological history. All in all an easy and enjoyable day leaving us all well educated on the oldest rainforest in the world.

Massima puntualità nel prelievo e per gli spostamenti. La nostra guida è stata impeccabile. Peccato solo aver pagato così tanto ed non aver visto nemmeno un coccodrillo.

Wij hebben de Daintree and Cape Tribulation premium tour gedaan. Alles top georganiseerd. De spots die we bezochten waren supermooi, lunch was top, krokodillen cruise was ontzettend gaaf. Je zit in totaal wel wat veel in de bus, maar dat is onvermijdelijk om de verschillende spots te kunnen zien. Maar de verschillende etappes zijn ook weer niet enorm lang en je rijdt bovendien door een mooi en afwisselend landschap. Het is dus heel goed te doen. Tot slot: de gids was ontzettend sympathiek en enthousiast.

Excellent Day Tour
The day was exceptional. From the drive along the coast to the drive through the rainforest. We enjoyed all the scenic stops for picture taking. Karsten our guide did a great job sharing information about all the sights. We enjoyed the riverboat ride and were able to see several large crocodiles. Lunch was great. We tried the barramundi and kangaroo loin. Both dishes were very good as well as the tropical fruit served with our meals. I would highly recommend this day tour.

A truly PREMIUM full day tour, it fulfills everything agreed upon.
My guide-driver was Pierre. Passionate about the jungle, he gave us a lot of information about animals and birds of the oldest jungle on the planet. He was efficient, fast, and safe in his responses. Punctual pickup at my hotel, and everything went according to what was agreed. At lunch there were several options to choose from, fish, chicken, kangaroo, vegetarian. The tour lasted 11:45 hours, just as it is pre-established in the conditions. Highly recommended. The weather, which does not depend on the agency, was rainy at times, but that is nature. Thank you Pierre.
