A lovely afternoon up in the rainforest looking at waterfalls, followed by an evening looking at the glow worms. Peter is very knowledgeable and took time and effort to point out various plants and animals... ensuring we knew which ones are dangerous.
In all we walked between 8 and 10km, often up and down steps and steep inclines. It was quite a tiring day but worth the effort!
Description says small level of fitness required, I would change this to a moderate level.

Our tour guide, Talitha, was energetic and friendly. She also pointed out several animals and plants for us to learn about.

The natural bridge and the kangaroos. The whole day was relaxing and just enjoying nature and the information Peter shared.

Our tour guide Peter was so nice! We had a great day. We hiked to twin falls and rainbow falls which was so fun! As well as some lookouts. The hikes were pretty easy so no worries there. Recommend closed toed shoes and a jacket. It’s too cold to hop in the water at the waterfall but I’m sure you could if you wanted. Only thing I can think of to improve the day would be to add music in the car ride!

Peter is an excellent guide and the tour was excellent too! Waterfalls were beautiful and loved seeing all the Kangaroos (bring insect repellent for this part of the tour)

Me and my husband chose this tour since we wanted to join a tour during the daytime, and because we wanted to spend our time in the huge and beautiful nature of Australia.
Our guide Pete was kind, caring and Knowledgable ( also a great driver and a cook :) ).
I enjoyed the waterfalls, the cave, the animals, the plants ,,, simply loved walking through the beautiful rainforest listening to all the interesting stories. Some of the paths were easy to walk, while some were a little challenging which made the tour exciting more just the right amount.
Thanks for the great experiences!

Peter our guide was excellent and a great chef to boot! The waterfalls, lookouts, paddy melons, koala- Oh my what a great day! We were in the clods literally today! Instead of the same old beer, fish and chips- we had an home cooked meal. Excellent 5+ stars for today!

Pete, our guide, picked us up at 7am from our accommodation in Broadbeach Waters which was a great convenience. He drove us out to the hinterland and we explored the rainforest, saw three waterfalls, one of which we stood behind and another our daughters swam in. Pete provided lunch which was lovely and he had Knowledge of the land, fauna and flora. 7 hours later we were dropped off at the accommodation. Would recommend.

What a terrific day exploring Australia’s waterfalls and rainforests! Peter was an amazing guide and even prepared a home cooked lunch for us. It’s difficult to pick a favorite part of the tour, but Peter was full of local and cultural knowledge and was extremely friendly. Do yourself a favor and book this tour, you won’t be disappointed!

We had a fantastic day!
Peter was punctual, nice, accomodating and very knowledgeable of the area, nature and history.
Can accomodate up to 7pers which is definitely nice than large groups, and it ended up just being the 3 of us
Doing the tour early in the morning was great as it meant the various spots were a lot less crowded
I would definitely recommend this tour!

I had a great day discovering the Springbrook rainforest! Pete was a very good guide, kind, knowledgeable and attentive to everyone's needs. The coach was very comfortable and the small group size ensured that we enjoyed the experience to the fullest and in peace. I really liked the possibility of having walked around and seen more distant points of the forest but always without haste and with tranquility. At the end was like a family trip ahaha
Super recommended!!

Peter was very precessional, on time picking me up, knew every fact / detail of the trip & has great cooking skills (pasta was lovely). The experience was beautiful and if you love nature trails then this is definitely a no brainer.

Thanks Peter! We had a blast! We really appreciated you going out of the way to show us cool sights and animals!

Peter was an amazing guide and showed us several fantastic waterfalls! He shared a lot of history throughout the tour, and gave us each a great lunch. We decided we wanted to see more, and he willingly took us to a kangaroo and koala reserve! Peter and his tour was amazing and we had a great time sharing some laughs with him. If you are in the Gold Coast, this is a must-do tour!
