Natures Greatest Show
As the sun starts to rise you can leave Cairns behind and lose yourself in the heady scent of the rainforest. Sit on the banks of the sweeping Daintree River sipping tea and watching snakes coil around the branches of overhanging trees. Hear the songs of exotic bright plumed birds as they push their bills into the riverbanks searching for breakfast and watch the striped possum’s splash in the shallows.
Wind Down the River
A highlight of Daintree Rainforest Tours is the chance to glide down the winding river on a wildlife cruise. This is one of the best ways to see crocodiles in their natural habitat basking on the cool muddy banks. After exploring the majestic Daintree by water a local biologist is waiting to take you to the dark heart of the jungle. The Marrdja Botanical Boardwalk will transport you on a journey back in time, to when dinosaurs walked the earth, with its evocative display of ancient flora. Ramble beside the gin coloured streams, climb over sprawling roots and admire the blood red flowers breaking through the foliage.
Discover Blissful Beaches
Delightful Daintree tours take you from the dense heat of the jungle to splash in the rich coral waters of Cape Tribulation. Cool in the jewelled waters against a backdrop of rising mountains and tumbling greenery that races down to greet the shore. Linger over a picnic lunch, watch marine life teem around your feet and climb to the top of the Alexandra Range for breath taking views.
Myth and Magic at Mossman Gorge
