4.00This was a good god trip, there was a little traveling which was okay but when we visited one place the guide did not let us swim as he said the waterfalls were to high but others were doing it and kids were also in there, this was a little frustrating to say the least. Overall the trip was good.
Great day out

5.00Our tour guide Noel was amazing! Very informative and passionate about nature, the rainforest and waterfalls. The drive to the rainforest was very curvy but we stopped at a convenience shop to pick up snacks or motion sickness medicine if needed.

5.00I loved everything about this tour. Highlights included guide Clinton's entertaining and informative commentary, the cultural presentation at the Cathedral fig tree, and the chance to see so many stunning locations in a single day. I wouldn't have wanted to do this much driving by myself, but being a passenger means you can relax and enjoy the scenery in between stops. Our group included a wide range of ages, and there were people travelling solo as well as couples and pairs of friends. There was plenty to enjoy at each location whether you wanted to swim or not. All in all, a really well designed and thoughtfully delivered tour. It also felt like excellent value for money compared to what I'd have spent on car rental, petrol, lunch and stress if attempting to DIY the same route.
A great way to see many...

5.00A great way to see many sites in a day. Even if there is rain it is well worth it! Swimming at Milla Milla is a must!
