    This tour was great! Tour guide Stella was amazing - super friendly & knowledgeable! The ATV ride was a lot of fun & the waterfall was beautiful! Loved all the fish, turtles & eels, as well as all the wildlife & rainforest we saw along the way! The croc cruise was also fantastic, seeing 4 crocs! Would definitely recommend this tour!

    I would give this tour 5 stars except for the problems communicating with the tour provider before our tour and the morning of our tour. I phones, texted, sent an email and messages through Viator to confirm our pickup location but did not get an answer. The map they provided had the incorrect location as well. Once Molly, our tour guide, found us by calling me, then it was fantastic. Molly was exceptional and gave us a day we will not forget. We drove to the tour sight, rode in the ATVs around the property, learning much about the local vegetation and how the native peoples used many of the plants. The best part was cooling off with a refreshing swim below the amazing fall. Thanks Molly and Bruce for one of the best days on our travels.

    Rain forest experience

    Loved the ATV and waterfall experiences! The "jungle cruise" was a very pretty boat ride but not much wild life.

    Bruce is the best

    A+ What an amazing day! Both my son (21) and I enjoyed it immensely. Our tour guide Bruce did a phenomenal job. He was extremely knowledgeable and attentive. He even went out of his way on the following day to assist us on our quest to find a souvenir!

    Great Review , Thankyou !!

    Great tour

    It was an amazing experience full of fun and laughter. You will get wet so bring a change of clothes and water shoes would be great for the ride and waterfall. Rode around in an ATV tasting fruit from around the property and learning the history of the area. They even had 3 chalets around the property that would have been amazing to stay at for a night or two. Stella and Kepo were great tour guides and we loved having a small group. He took lots of great pictures of the group. The only thing we were sad about was there was no lunch provided for the 4 year old in our group. Of course we shared with her and got her a sandwich when we stopped in town for a minute.

    A day of adventure and natural beauty

    Excitement aplenty riding in an ATV. But in the most amazing environment. Through incredible ancient forest to a stunning waterfall and plunge pool with fish, turtles and eels. Learning about the ecosystem along the way. Yummy lunch and then an interesting river trip to learn about and view crocodiles in their own environment. A fantastic adventure experience, and educational. You’ll get wet and muddy, and love it. Best thing about the trip was Wepiha, our magnificent guide who catered to our every need and made us feel like royalty.

    The only tour to do in Port Douglas

    Clifford_W, Apr 2025
    If you one can do one trip in Port Douglas, this is the one to book. It was absolutely fantastic. A cross between Jurassic Park and wet and wild, Bruce and Wepo were amazing guides and this was a true adventure of a life time.

    Absolute pleasure, thanks for the great review :-)

    The most fantastic day.

    Felicity_N, Jan 2025
    We absolutely loved this experience. We definitely recommend to everyone. The tour guides were super friendly and knowledgeable. We got to experience a beautiful waterfall that no other tour gets to experience and the ATV ride was so fun.

    Fun, magical and informative

    Jeanette_M, Sep 2024
    The 4WD tour was exhilarating and the driver had us laughing the whole way. Swimming in the waterfall was a surreal experience in a truly beautiful setting. After an excellent lunch, we finished seeing 4 crocodiles on the Daintree River with a very knowledgeable captain with not only facts, but also stories about each crocodile. I would thoroughly recommend this tour.
