Mossman Gorge Tickets and Tours

Small Group Daintree Rainforest and Aboriginal Coastal Adventure

Great experience

We had a wonderful experience on this tour. After pick-up in Cairns, our guide Joe shared great information about the area and it's history. The beach experience with Brendon was the highlight of the trip. After walking barefoot through the med flats and catching mud crabs with a spear, we returned to Brandon's family's home and feasted on the crab, home made damper and even green turtle he had recently caught (only allowed to be hunted by aboriginal people.) Brandon was welcoming and shared a bit of his wealth of knowledge about foraging and hunting. Next stop was Mossman gorge for lunch and a hike, then off to an aboriginal art class. We each had the opportunity to create a small painting on paper using indigenous techniques. Overall, a great day and the experience with Brandon was one of our favorite parts of our trip. Also a big shout out to Joe, who was a great guide for the day.

Half Day Tour to Daintree Rainforest and Mossman Gorge

A great trip. Really enjoyed it.

We went on the half day experience which was conducted by our driver/guide, James, who was so knowledgeable and entertaing throughout the whole trip. We were picked up at the marina where our cruise ship tender dropped us and drove out from Port Douglas to a beach stop where we had coffee and pastries from the local bakers. We the drove to the Daintree River where we had a cruise on the river, spotting young crocodiles sun bathing and learning about the various trees and shrubs which bordered the river. When the river trip was finished, we then drove to Mossman Gorge visitor centre which is run by the local aboriginal tribe. James took us on a walk through the gorge and waterfalls, explaining so much about the flora and fauna. At the end of this part of the trip we were offered delicious chicken and salad rolls, again, from the local bakery. Then dropped off in Port Douglas at The Tin Shed, a community pub where we got ourselves a drink. A wonderful day out and Port Douglas is a lovely town. Back in plenty of time to get our tender back to the ship.

Cairns: Daintree & Cape Tribulation 2-Day Tour with Options

Great Fun, but actually 4 tours stitched together!

Great tour! Everyone was really helpful. One important thing to note though, that we didn’t realize, is that this isn’t one comprehensive tour. My partner and I started with one group, got dropped off at the lodge to walk to the ziplining with a different group, were on our own for the night, did snorkeling with another group, and then waited at the cafe for a guide and bus to pick us up for the end of the trip and to take us back to town. Everything went really smoothly, but we didn’t understand all the transfers when we first booked. It’s good to know! The other thing to note is that dinner options at the Safari Lodge are very limited, especially without a car. We ended up grabbing provisions from the local grocery (closes at 5:30) to cook ourselves. Overall fun time though! Everyone we interacted with was incredibly helpful and kind and the safari lodge is awesome. Book the private en suite bathroom, it comes with air con, totally worth it!
