This is a great tour for those who only want to spend a half-day out or are short on time. We visit two areas on this trip, Daintree River and Mossman Gorge.
We begin with a drive along the Captain Cook Highway, on the way to the Daintree River, and share a little history along the way.
Here, we board a cruise along the Daintree River, looking out for local wildlife, including the estuarine crocodile, snakes, birds, frogs, and more.
After the Wildlife Cruise, we enjoy morning tea with Lamingtons and tea/coffee.
Once in Mossman Gorge National Park, we conduct an interpretive walk along an elevated boardwalk. Weather dependent, we can enjoy a dip in the crystal-clear rainforest stream, whilst being surrounded by the beautiful and healing Mossman Gorge rainforest.
What a memorable way to spend your morning!

A great day out. Saw several crocodiles and enjoyed walking through the beautiful rainforest. The guide had a lot of interesting information to share!

Such a great morning with a fabulous guide! It was amazing seeing the Daintree River, finding a couple of baby crocs and a tree snake, and then walking through the beautiful Mossman Gorge. It was too cool for the big crocs to be out of the water but that was okay and not in anyone’s control. Highly recommend!

The river trip was very interesting, we also saw crocodiles. Our guide introduced us to the landscape and history very impressively. We will definitely do such a tour again.

Perfect trip! Boat ride to spot crocodiles followed by a trip to Mossman gorge to see rainforest and swim in the river. Just a small amount of hiking/walking.

Guide was a good host and very pleasant but experience was not good value. We paid over $600 CAD for a 5 person family. If we had done the two stops on our own it would have been less than $150. We would have been happy to pay a premium for the guiding and driving but not $450! The rainy weather didn't help finding wildlife in the forest or looking for crocs at high tide (why book tours at high tide?) but weather is out of the tour operator's control. In the end felt a bit ripped off.
