Great Way to See Daintree and the Surrounding Area

5.00This tour covered most everything in the Daintree area with our tour guide explaining the flora, fauna, geography and history. The hiking was was not too strenuous and the day was broken up so that we had time to rest on bus rides or at our lunch stop (which was surprisingly nice in a tropical setting). The boat ride was fun even though we only got to see one crocodile. I also liked this tour because of the limited number of people. No huge crowd to keep track of or get lost in. Would definitely recommend Billy Tea Safaris.
Wonderful Guide

5.00Definitely a must do trip, it was a packed, full ok day with no dull moments or boredom. The tour guide was exceptional. The groups were small enough to enjoy ourselves without having so many people around
Beautiful place but bad service

4.00It is beautiful rainforset and loved the whole experience but was very disappointed with local tour billy tea rainforset safari . First of all they told us to wait at one address and never came there so after waiting 15 minutes we call that company and operator said driver is waiting on other side. So we walked on different road where driver was waiting and he gave us a look and gesture as what's wrong with us. Didn't even greet us nor saying sorry for waiting on wrong place infect made us feel like we were wrong. Secondly he was the worst driver, gave us really bumpy ride and all of us felt like we are going to throw up. On the first stop two of our people in our party got sick and was in the bathroom so they had to wait extra 6 minutes and he again giving us a look as what's wrong with us and why are we delaying. No sympathy of us getting sick. He still never said hello to us nor made any connections with us. BTW his name was Daniel. After that we were so afraid so everywhere we got off, we were the first one to get on the bus. Besides the very bad experience with the tour guide. Place is gorgeous and must visit. Hope you can get a better driver and service. We would like it if viator gives us some compensation for this service and getting sick with really bumpy drive. We all are sick from the trip and had to take meds.

5.00Very enjoyable, the guide is very professional, explaines everything very well and shows a lot of different things in the Daintree. Although there was some bad weather, it was still a very enjoyable experience. We were able to see cassowaries and even crocodiles. The ice-cream is really good there, so is lunch.
Money well spent! This tour is phenomenal.

5.00This was a phenomenal experience. Perfect for a day trip. Andy was a knowledgeable tour guide. He patiently answered everyone's questions. His presentation was clear and easy to understand. Tim was our River Cruise boat driver. He, too, was friendly and full of information. There were many stops throughout the day. Plenty of time to stretch our legs and see quite a few things that we might not have seen if we chose to tour this area on our own. Lunch was delicious and filling, and they catered to our dietary needs. Ice cream at the end of the trip was tasty and unusual. Overall this tour is money well spent.
Amazing experience on the “Kookaburra”

5.00The tour was absolutely spectacular from start to finish. We had a great lunch, and we were able to see all the local wildlife, including flying foxes and crocodiles. On top of that, we even got the chance to swim in the rainforest, which was an unforgettable experience. We travelled on the “Kookaburra” bus, which was very comfortable, and our guide was a very friendly and knowledgeable man. He gave us plenty of useful recommendations for safe routes and hiking around Australia and shared interesting information about the local wildlife, Australia in general, and the Cairns area. I would definitely do it again without hesitation — a perfect 10!
Knowledgeable tour guide

5.00Our driver AJ was friendly, very knowledgeable, and funny. He really tried to find a cassowary. There were some hiccups (tree branch broke windows and the ferry broke down), but he was organized and handled them well. The snack and ice cream were good, but the lunch was not so great.
