Good day, Mossman gorge a bit rushed, could not even drink our coffee & eat snack in the cafe, lunch was very good, Noel was very informative
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience and feedback for our Daintree Rainforest Tour! It means so much to our team who put so much effort and passion into making your tours a great experience.
The cultural centre was amazing the smoking ceremony and the Indigenous staff were very welcoming and full of knowledge loved it , the overall day was very pleasant but being of Aboriginal decent there was a lot of talking about Captain James Cook on the bus and how he discovered and named areas I found a bit disrespectful considering Aboriginal people were here long before he came when I asked the driver what is the Indigenous name for the Daintree he didn’t know to make this tour amazing would be to employ Aboriginal staff from this area to show knowledge and tell stories of the true Australian history and meanings because the landscape was breathtaking 👍🏼
This trip was great our guide was awesome and very knowledgeable. I would recommend doing this tour with this company. Only thing to be aware of is when booking I was trip advisor said pickup from port Douglas was 7 am but it was actually 9 am. The 7 am is cairns.

Great trip, well organised and executed.
You’re a star! Glad we could add some adventure to your Cairns trip.
A lot of very interesting things to see, but we feel rushed at every stop. Furthermore, the guide is very enthusiastic and we learn a lot of things, but unfortunately he speaks very fast and we did not always understand everything... More thought should be given to foreign tourists!

What an amazing way to spend a day exploring one of Australia’s spectacular areas. Noel our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and vivacious.
