A very well run tour with plenty of memorable moments. Swimming in the Gorge was sooooo refreshing. Our tour host Mel made the day so enjoyable

My wife and I had a great time on this tour. The river tour was brilliant, we saw plenty of wildlife. Mossman gorge was beautiful and it was really enjoyable to be able to take a bit of a swim in the lovely waters of the rainforest. Mel was fantastic, very knowledgeable and also entertaining. Would highly recommend this trip. Especially if you've only a few days in the area and don't want to commit a full day to one trip.

Such a great afternoon with a small group of 12. Mick was our driver/guide. He was so knowledgeable of the area and was super friendly. Highly recommend this tour when visiting Port Douglas.

A brilliant trip in the pouring rain, which added to the authenticity! On the boat trip we had hoped to see Crocs in the river, but because the river was in flood, only caught glimpses of two of them. According to Ray, the pilot of the boat, he knows of of around 20-30 Crocs in that part of the river and he knows them all by name! Brilliant. The trip through the Rain Forest was excellent, conducted by Mel, who was very knowledgeable, and made everyone very welcome. She was also the driver of the minibus, where we were all introduced to each other.

Our small group half day experience on the Daintree river and to the Mossman Gorge was brought to life by our guide Michael / Mick. His safe driving, his personality, his humour, his patience, and his exceptionally good ability to impart his encyclopedic knowledge of and interest in the area including its history made our day. Thank you !

It’s a filler trip. Gives you something to do. The river cruise is lame and not much to see. We saw two tiny gators. The rainforest part is about the same , a little more interesting. It fills some time but not much too it. Find other stuff to do!
