5.00Definitely recommend this tour! Bruce was our main tour guide and was extemely knowledgable regarding the rainforest and shared nuggets of info regarding areas we passed along the drive to the rainforest. Once in the ATV, he took us on an exciting ride with stops to try fresh fruit and hear more about the rainforest with a stop at a beautiful waterfall. There were eels and even a school of fish that would let you pet them. That was a first! We did the full tour that included the crodile boat tour and saw several crocodiles including a HUGE one swimming along the shore, so cool! Not going to take away points, but I was not a fan of the lunch that was included. It was a prepacked lunch with an egg salad sandwich. Thought that was an interesting choice. Thankfully, we were at a spot that sold chips and snacks so I was able to get some other items to eat. Others seemed to really enjoy it and it was fresh, but I wasn't a fan.

5.00Excellent day out with Cassy, Bruce and Mary. Probably the best activities I have done for a long time. Guides are friendly, fun and informative. The swim at the end in the waterfall lagoon is the highlight.
Cass from Cassowary Falls!

5.00Well, where do I start, what an absolute beauty of a place this is. Mind blowing. Me and my partner absolutely loved every second of this adventure, and it started at the beginning. The welcoming was spot on. Our guide for the day was Cass, and boy did she give us a ride to remember. So full of knowledge and experience, she took the time to show and explain so much along the way and we couldn’t be happier. The ride into the rainforest was something else, the river crossings were so fun, and as the brochure states be prepared to get wet!!! The views are stunning and something the eye must see. Feeding and touching lucky the eel was highlight as well as feeding the turtles and fish. The waterfall and swimming hole just topped off the day. Cass we can’t thank you enough for the relaxing thrill ride today. Definitely a 10/10
Great fun!

5.00What an awesome experience ! Bruce our driver and guide picked us up in the minibus to take us to Daintree to pick up the All Terrain Vehicle - on route Bruce was informative and funny . When we picked up the ATV , Bruce asked us if we minded getting wet - we said we wanted to get as wet as possible and Bruce didn’t disappoint! What an adventure driving across the creeks and up and down over the hills , stopping to admire the views and taste the fresh fruits , berries and flowers that Bruce picked for us . Bruce was so knowledgeable. He drove us to the rainforest where we walked through and explained about the wildlife and the various trees and vines . When we got to the waterfall , it was magical , we saw fish , turtles and eels and swam in beautiful water . You could be as adventurous as you wanted to as we climbed up behind the waterfall with Bruce’s guidance and then jumped in from there . Bruce would adapt his tour to the needs of the group , so there’s no need to get wet if you don’t want to , but we wanted the full experience! After the waterfall we had a delicious light lunch and then went on the river cruise and spotted Scarface the oldest , biggest male croc there along with 5 or so others along the river . This trip was amazing and if you are going to do any in Daintree put this one at the top of your list , as it’s not to be missed . Thank you Bruce !
Unbelievable experience!

5.00We are visiting Daintree on our honeymoon and had an excellent time with Cass and Mary! They are incredibly knowledgable about the rainforest from the citrus fruit to the trees and canopy to the animals. The waterfall was amazing. We had such a great time seeing the fish and turtles and jumping from the waterfall. Highly recommend!!
WOW !

5.00This was a fun trip - lovely views, lots of native plant & fruits (& juicy citrus) to try as you zip along towards the Falls. Seeing all the creatures was amazing & swimming in the falls was spectacular. The crocodile cruise at the end was relaxing (although we did get very close to Scarface at one point). Our host Mary was also incredibly lovely. Definitely recommend this.
