5.00Wonderful experience in the Daintree. Sean was a knowledgeable and fun tour guide and kept us on schedule and entertained the whole day. Even with rain on and off, it was still beautiful. The tea was lovely, the lunch was fantastic. The boat ride, ice cream, walk on the beach and swimming (if you can handle the cold lol) - it was all magical. Wouldn’t hesitate to do this again. You won’t be disappointed!
Great way to experience the Daintree rainforest

5.00Awesome experience with the tour guide Steve. This tour is perfect as it gives you a little taste of everything and the venues you visit are more local and homey rather than bigger companies.
