5.00Unbelievably good tour. Pick up arrangements from our hotel were clear and after 3 more pickups (6 guests in total) we were driven to a selection of waterfalls and look out points. Talitha was the perfect guide, so knowledgeable and genuinely enthusiastic and totally determined to make sure everyone got what they wanted from the tour. Brief lunch stop then on. By now it was raining a lot, but bizarrely this seemed to add to the authenticity of the rainforest section of the trip ! Driven back to the Conservation Area where we saw loads of kangaroos, a couple of koalas, kookaburra and a wallaby. Dropped back to resort at about 6pm. There's a lot of walking to one of the falls, including some climbs and steps and a few areas of slippery rocks, but even as (ahem) a more mature gentleman, it wasn't impossible and Talitha kept a watchful eye on us. Yule be so glad you did it.
Absolutely Terriic!

5.00Our guide was incredible knowledgeable, and paid particular attention to making sure the older people in the group had just as much fun as the younger participants. Regardless of age size or fitness level all were welcome and cared for… thank you Peter.

5.00An absolutely beautiful contrast to the beach, surrounded by ferns, giant trees, and huge vines. Stunning views across the top of the rainforest canopy show the Gold Coast skyline in the distance. Peter is incredibly friendly, made everyone comfortable, and provided an abundance of information about the area, its history, the local plant life, and the many creatures that called it home. The small group provided an intimate experience and an opportunity to share travel experiences. Highly recommend.
I’ve never seen so many kangaroos in my life. :)

5.00Great group, patient host. Definitely recommend… Couple pointers Bring shoes with grip (tennis, sneakers, or hiking), bring a light jacket and/or a changes clothing…. The waterfalls were beautiful, but water equals a bit of a chill and maybe a bit of mud… still totally worth it. Peter is incredibly patient and made sure the entire group had a great experience. Bring a charged phone, a great attitude, and a smile. It’s gonna be a great day :)
Awesome trip!

5.00This was one of the most memorable and fun trips I’ve ever been on. It was so awesome to get to see waterfalls, rainforest and kangaroos all in one day! I learned some new things and saw some beautiful lookouts and waterfalls. This is a must do trip when you are on the Gold Coast!
So interesting, we didn’t want it to end!

5.00A full, active day seeing key natural sights in Queensland with an experienced naturalist guide. Peter led us through each stop on the thoughtfully curated itinerary with memorable and informative discussion about what to look for and history/context. We loved the hiking (covered five + miles on foot) and seeing plants, birds and animals unique to Australia. This day was such a highlight on our trip. Also, Peter engaged our group in a way that made us feel like a team! We highly recommend this experience!!
Amazing Reinforest experience in a small group

5.00Rainforest and Kangaroo Experience This tour was absolutely fantastic! With only seven guests, it felt very personal and individual. With the small group you have an access to some parts, where the large groups are not allowed to go to. Our private guide was incredibly knowledgeable, flexible, and took plenty of time to explain everything about the rainforest, the animals, and the plants living there. We got to see so much — from stunning rainforest scenery to unique wildlife — all while enjoying beautiful and easy hikes. Lunch was delicious and homemade, with fresh fruits and a tasty nut bar. It really added a special touch to the day. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to explore a different side of the rainforest and truly learn about its fascinating ecosystem
Incredible tour of the rainforest, waterfalls and views topped off with seeing kangaroos and koalas

5.00This was a really authentic and truly unforgettable experience starting with a tour of the Gondwana rainforest with its many waterfalls and walkways . We also saw Numinbah Falls which was also beautiful. Peter was the most fantastic guide and gave us so much information on the wildlife , landscapes and foliage every step of the way . He picked us up from our hotel and was so friendly and we loved his playlist ! The walks were not too strenuous but waterproof walking shoes would be recommended. The views were spectacular with plenty of time to take photos . Peter provided us with a lovely lunch of salad , fruit and snacks as well as water which was much appreciated. We went from the rainforest to the Coombahbah Lakelands where there were an abundance of kangaroos, baby Joeys and Peter found us koalas , too . This really was the highlight of our trip to the Gold Coast and we thought it was great value for money . Thank you so much , Peter , for sharing your knowledge and giving us so many amazing memories.
