We had a fantastic tour with family and friends, our tour guide and driver, Cam. He was very knowledgeable about the history, the rainforest and had great enthusiasm for what he did. We thought about driving ourselves but we definitely would not have got the information that Cam provided. We would have loved to swim longer at Cooper’s Creek, but completely understand there was a lot to fit in to the day and the tour. We were very happy we were with a small group of 9. Thanks for a special and memorable day Cam.

A fantastic day. Peer was not only a knowledgeable guide but a friendly guy just to talk to. A great day, plenty to see, eat & catch (Hookabarra) & with a fun trip back to our resort talking about bands we'd seen over the years. Recommended!

Matt, our tour guide was amazing. He was both funny and knowledgeable and kept us entertained all day with stories, facts and history. It's worth having a guide as you appreciate the significance and importance of the entire region. We loved the cruise especially as saw multiple crocs. Morning tea and lunch were great, the swim at the creek refreshing, the ice cream yum.

A wonderful day full of one-off experiences. Mick's knowledge was excellent. He was good fun and kept a careful eye on a very diverse group of travellers.

What a fantastic day we had with Daintree discovery tours. Our guide for the day Cam was so friendly and informative and his knowledge of the whole area was second to none. The river cruise was excellent and we got to see the crocodiles up close, a terrific meal at the rainforest retreat, great walks at Mossman Gorge and through the Daintree rainforest and topped off with a walk along the beach at Cape Tribulation. From start to finish the whole day was exceptional. Thank you so much.

Great day trip! Our guideline was a wealth of information and an entertaining, funny guy! My son and I loved it. Great value. We saw a massive croc in his native habitat to top it off!

Felt like the whole tour was designed just for us. Cam’s knowledge, sense of humour and ability to make sure everyone was catered for was brilliant.

Matthew our tour guide had a significant amount of information about the Daintree plants, insects and animals. My daughter loves learning about nature and she learnt so much from this tour and was buzzing. The 10hr day went quickly and the small group made it a really enjoyable experience. The food was enjoyable but the settings made it amazing. I recommend swimming in the gorge. We came home energetic and she was so stoked she got to see a really big croc in the wild.. ending with local organic ice cream made it the perfect end to an awesome day!
