We venture into the Jungle less than two kilometres from the Coral Sea on the slopes of a mountain blanketed in old growth rainforest amongst giant trees thousands of years old and plants & animals that predate dinosaurs.
We use a unique mixture of humour & biological information to tell the story of this unique forest where Kangaroo's live in tree's, a bird is bigger than a human and nothing is considered deadly to humans. Every plant and animal has a part in the story of this World Heritage listed ecosystem and we spend over an hour on the 'hunt' along trails only we use identifying the things we see explaining their part in the story of the worlds oldest continuously existing forest. Our guides are independently accredited biological scientists who love to entertain, we are local to the area and have 20 years experience in guiding visiting families from all over the world so language differences are not an impediment to providing everyone an enjoyable experience regardless of age

At night, the forest transforms. Creatures that hide from the sun begin to stir — glowing eyes peek from the undergrowth, wings flutter softly in the dark, and the air fills with the chorus of crickets, frogs, and distant howls. You might spot a possum gliding silently between trees, or a bandicoot scurrying through the leaves. Spiders spin fresh webs across narrow trails, their silk catching the glow of your torch. Bats zigzag above, feeding on moths you didn’t even know were there. The shadows come alive — not with fear, but with fascination. You realize how much is happening all around you that daylight hides. Every rustle could be a harmless lizard or a curious marsupial. It’s peaceful, yet electric. You’re a guest in their world — a nighttime visitor, quietly watching nature’s second shift come to life.

Eaten alive by mosquitoes, did not see any animals. Bring water it is incredibly hot. More commentary from the guide is needed about the plants and species in the rainforest as well as more in depth explanations of indigenous culture and history of the area.
