5.00Excellent Tour lead by our guide, Ash, who was not only very knowledgeable but a lot of fun. Lots of variety on the tour including visits to 2 parts of the rain forest, a river boat trip with croc spotting, lunch in the forest at a very nice restaurant and and even a great swim. Highly recommended!

5.00We booked last minute and was so glad we got on this tour. It was perfect. Cam our guide is a top bloke. Very friendly with the perfect balance of guiding and relaxing. We really enjoyed the small group. A very friendly, international mix. Loved the whole day. We saw 3 juvenile crocodiles and 2 Cassowarys. What an experience. Do take a dip in the freshwater pool. It was so nice!
Fantastic full day with Cam and Tony's Tropical Tours

5.00Our day touring with Tony's Tropical Tours was one of the most enjoyable days of our trip to Australia, mainly down to our tour guide Cam and the small group setting (8 of us). Cam made sure to get to know and introduce each of us in the small group first off, helping make the day feel like an adventure with friends rather than just a tour. He was so knowledgeable about the rainforest, flora and fauna and spoke from the local perspective regarding the region which was eye-opening. We walked through the rainforest from Mossman Gorge, did a crocodile river tour, another rainforest walk through privately-owned territory (so the only tour group there), wonderful lunch, amazing river swim (a highlight!), exotic fruit ice cream, Cape Tribulation, and a few other lookouts. It was a great very full day, really all of it was a highlight. We were lucky enough to see not just one but two wild cassowaries on our tour. If you are thinking about seeing the rainforest, do this tour and hopefully you get Cam as your guide!
We loved it!!!

5.00Our guide Ash was absolutely incredible!! The tour is structured so well, with so many great stops along the way. Its spread out really well, so we were never in the car for too long at a time. My husband and I absolutely loved it, would highly recommend if you’re in Port Douglas!
Worthwhile tour in the oldest rainforest in the world

5.00This was a really educational tour into the Daintree. Despite not seeing anything but a foot long baby croc and no cassowaries, Cam, our tour guide, kept the drive to each destination educational and the walk through the rainforest very interesting. And don't sleep on the stop at the amazing Daintree Ice Cream Co. which had incredibly unique and fresh flavors. Cam made the most of the trip and was incredibly considerate, he even bought me a beer for my birthday. Highly recommend and hope you get to see bigger crocs.
Highly recommended tour

5.00From the moment I booked the tour through to being dropped back at my hotel, communication was excellent. I was kept well informed via email with pickup times and a clear itinerary. Our tour guide, Ash, was a wealth of knowledge. His presentation was both professional and enthusiastic, and his passion quickly spread to the group. We asked countless questions about the Daintree rainforest-its plants, trees, insects, and animals—and every question was answered confidently, clearly, and with great expertise. Ash's commitment and attention to detail delivered a truly professional, high-quality tour that I would highly recommend.
Would highly recommend.

5.00A wonderful day tour. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. In our small group we not only experienced the Daintree and Mossman Gorge, but saw crocodiles in their natural habitat on the river cruise and enjoyed great food.

5.00Great day in stunning tropical rainforest and beautiful Daintree river. Adam our guide/driver was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area which was interesting. Great lunch, great ice-cream stop on the way back. Saw some crocs and other local wildlife and even had a very refreshing swim in a creek! I recommend this tour, it’s pretty thorough and you get to see a lot of this beautiful place
Excellent day
