Overview

A rainforest visit is easy to rush when you're working out which trails, viewpoints, and waterfalls to fit in. Leave the planning to your guide on this private tour as you head from the Gold Coast to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Gondwana Rainforests and Springbrook National Park. Watch for wild koalas and kangaroos, stop at scenic viewpoints, and learn about the Aboriginal custodians of the land. At lunch, choose a picnic spot at the top or bottom of a waterfall.

Full day hiking in the rainforest

Caryn_S, Oct 2025

We were short on time in the area and wanted to see and hike in the rainforest. We knew we needed an experienced guide. Peter was exactly what we were seeking. We had a full day of hikes (+8 miles in total) on several trails, saw many waterfalls and beautiful vistas. Peter is super knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the land, area and wildlife. Peter will customize the day based on your group, but we were a pair that wanted to hike and not be slowed down by a tour group. Highly recommend if you want an active experience.

AMAZING day with Talitha!

Stefanie_R, Apr 2025

Talitha was AMAZING as was the entire private tour. We were able to email back and forth over exactly what our family liked and the pace at which we were comfortable moving. Talitha was then able to exactly plan our day and we got everything done as promised! Her incredible knowledge of the rainforest was amazing!! My husband, daughter and I all agreed one of our best tours ever!! Highly recommend!!
