10/10 From start to finish this was a wonderful trip. Waterfalls, beautiful sceneries, birds, pademelons and the views going to and from this adventure were amazing. Stopping for lunch with the glasshouse mountains in the background is hard to beat. Can not express how much I loved this trip. Anita is fantastic with her knowledge of the local fauna and flora. She is also great company.

We enjoyed our visit to Bellthorpe Rain forest and were happy to see a Regent Bowerbird. Lunch at the Mary Cairn Cross Restaurant was very nice. We also enjoyed the rainforest tour that we did at Mary Cairn Cross and getting a chance to have a lovely view of the Glass Mountains. Anita picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel and we were able to do things at our own pace, as this was a private tour.
