5.00Brett was upbeat, full of local knowledge, shared some cool stories and did a top commentary throughout the day with a great sense of humour. Everyone's needs were met, including having enough leisure time in Kuranda for lunch and a look around. Easy-paced, relaxing day with amazing scenery to boot. Stopped at Palm Cove for a drink before dropping us all off back in Port Douglas, either at your accommodation or in town. Thank you for a memorable day out, Brett, see ya again next time we're in Port Douglas :)
