Mossman Gorge Tours and Tickets

Q: What is the best time of year to visit Mossman Gorge?

<p>The best time of year to visit Mossman Gorge in Queensland is during the dry season, from May to October, when the weather is generally more pleasant with lower humidity and less rainfall. The dry season also ensures better accessibility to the gorge; heavy rains during the wet season (November to April) can raise higher water levels and potentially impact some trails and access points.</p>

Q: How long does it take to explore Mossman Gorge?

<p>Exploring Mossman Gorge can take anywhere from a couple of hours to a full day, depending on the activities you choose. If you're doing a self-guided walk on the Rainforest Circuit, which is about 2 miles (3.4 kilometers) long, it typically takes around two hours to complete. If you join a guided tour, you might spend 2-3 hours or more at Mossman Gorge.</p>

Picked up at hotel. James was great. Kept us on schedule and provided good information about plants, geology, wildlife. Our Croc experience was exceptional, Chris was knowledgeable and hilarious. Saw juveniles and “Scar Face” up close and personal. He also kept an eye on the weather keeping us out of an incoming squall. This was a 1/2 day trip which, thanks to James and Chris was a wonderful experience of the Daintree.

A must-do experience

I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. It is a full-on day packed with so much to see! A great starting point for a visit up north. Every part was amazing- the beauty of Mossman Gorge, the entertainment on the crocodile boat, a couple of short hikes through gorgeous rainforest and swimming in a crystal clear watering hole, just to name the highlights. It honestly could not have been any better. I'll be recommending this tour to all my friends and family. Sublime!
