Great Daintree experience

We had a fabulous day with Randal. He offered great commentary and information all day long. We went as a family of 4 with 2 teenage kids and they loved the tour. The River cruise was a highlight as well as the Cape Tribulation walk and the Mossman Gorge… Special thanks to Randal for being a great guide! Highly recommend this tour!

Excellent tour, would recommend

Great small group tour. Walks in Mossman Gorge and The Daintree, a river cruise where we saw lots of crocodiles and a walk at Cape Tribulation where we luckily didn't see any crocodiles! Great morning tea and lunch included. Tour guide Ash was great fun with lots of knowledge, humour, patience and stories for us.

Operator response

Thank you, Lynette! We’re so glad you enjoyed the small-group experience and had a great day exploring the Daintree. It sounds like the crocodiles made the river cruise memorable—while wisely keeping their distance at Cape Tribulation! 🐊 We’ll pass your lovely feedback on to Ash. Thanks again for joining us, and we’re delighted you enjoyed the food along the way too🌿

Tom is the best tour guide ever!

Me and my wife had an absolutely fantastic experience with Tony’s Tropical Tours, and especially with our guide and driver, Tom. Tom was an excellent guide and a very professional, punctual and capable driver. He made the whole tour incredibly enjoyable with his great stories, sense of humour and entertaining way of engaging with everyone, especially the kids. He also provided plenty of insightful and interesting information throughout the tour, bringing the places we visited to life without ever making it feel like a lecture. It was clear that he knows the area extremely well and genuinely enjoys sharing his knowledge. Everything was very well organised and efficient from start to finish. Tom was friendly, entertaining, knowledgeable and professional, and really contributed to making the day such a memorable experience. We would absolutely recommend Tony’s Tropical Tours, and if you get Tom as your guide, you’re in very good hands!

Operator response

Thank you for such a generous review! We’re delighted that you and your wife had a memorable day with us. It’s wonderful to hear Tom’s warmth, humour, local insight, and care helped make the experience feel effortless and engaging for everyone🌿 We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him. Thanks again for recommending Tony’s Tropical Tours—we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Great experience

We had an exceptional tour which included the Mossman Gorge, a rainforest walk, a river cruise, swim in Cooper Creek and Cape Tribulation which was definitely a highlight. It was the right amount of time, and Tom was extremely knowledgable and very helpful and patient with everyone in the group. What makes it even better is he is genuinely passionate about what he does. Would definitely recommend for families. A descent walk so be prepared. Kids and adults will equally enjoy the Daintree Ice cream which is the best we had in Qld!

Operator response

Thank you for the wonderful recommendation! 🌿 We’re so pleased your family enjoyed the perfect mix of Mossman Gorge, the rainforest walk, river cruise, Cooper Creek swim, and Cape Tribulation. Tom will be delighted to hear that his knowledge, patience, and passion helped make the day so memorable. And we completely agree—the Daintree ice cream is a very delicious bonus! 🍦 Thanks again for touring with us.

Stay to the Paths!

A good tour with Rob. He certainly knows the area well. Great to get into a proper rainforest that hadn't been altered to much by humans. Didn't get to see any Cassowary's unfortunately. Trees and fauna were great to see, along with the ones that can kill you or rip your skin off.

Operator response

Thank you for joining Rob on tour and for sharing your experience! 🌿 We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring the rainforest and learning about its remarkable trees, wildlife, and a few of its more formidable residents. Rob will appreciate the lovely feedback on his local knowledge. We’re sorry the cassowaries stayed hidden this time—hopefully they’ll make an appearance on your next visit!

An unforgettable Daintree experience with Tony’s Tropical Tours! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We did the Daintree tour yesterday with Tom as our guide, and he was simply excellent! From the very start of the timetable, everything ran like clockwork. Tom took us through all the incredible scheduled stops seamlessly—from the stunning walk at Mossman Gorge and the exciting wildlife cruise on the Daintree River, to the cable ferry crossing, the breathtaking views at Alexandra Lookout, and right up to Cape Tribulation. Tom was not only a fantastic, safe driver, but an exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly guide who brought the oldest rainforest in the world to life. He made sure everyone felt looked after and went out of his way to make the day special. If you are booking a tour with Tony’s Tropical Tours, do yourself a favor and hope you get Tom! Thank you for such a wonderful day.

Operator response

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! 🌿 We’re delighted you had such a smooth and memorable Daintree day with Tom. From Mossman Gorge and the river cruise to Alexandra Lookout and Cape Tribulation, it’s fantastic to hear he brought each stop—and the rainforest’s incredible story—to life. Tom will be so pleased to hear your kind words about his knowledge, care, and driving. We’ll pass them on! Thanks again for choosing Tony’s Tropical Tours—we’d love to welcome you back someday. 🐊
