Daintree and Cape Tribulation Full Day Guided Tour
Overview
Our itinerary has been carefully crafted to provide you with the very best of the Daintree while staying one step ahead of the crowds. Our slightly earlier departure time means that we are the first (and sometimes only) ones at key locations - giving you time to fully immerse yourself in the experience. We visit all the must-see sites as well as a few local secrets and prioritise time spent in nature. Our highly-trained guides are renown for their dedication and passion and go above and beyond to provide each person with an unforgettable day. In order to ensure comfort, safety and quality guiding we cap our guest numbers at 11.
Daintree Wonder Tours is a multi-award-winning, locally owned and operated family business that allows you to explore the area through the eyes of those that love and know it best.

I loved this tour. We had a great guide who was able to answer every question I had. He lives in the area so he had some good stories to share too. The rainforest was beautiful and tranquil. We saw a lot of camouflaged animals. The beach was also stunning but we couldn't go in the water due to stinger season. We had a nice swim in safer waters later. It was technically a long day but it didn't feel that long. We made a lot of stops, had plenty to eat, and chatted in the car. Overall, a great day.Our tour with Liam was an unbelievable experience.

This tour was better than expected. Our tour guide Justin was amazing, he has vast knowledge of the Rainforest and of life in general. Although it was breeding time and many animals were not able to be seen, it didn’t matter. Justin made the whole tour exciting and interesting. Lunch at the heritage lodge was fresh as can be, the barramundi was to die for! And the the potato salad was a must! The tour had rainforest walks, able for all ages and finished off with a river cruise. This tour has a lot packed into one day and would highly recommend! I did not feel disappointed at all. Port Douglas is a beautiful place and possibly one of my favourite holiday destinations thus far!We had a great day in the Daintree forest with Liam as a tour guide. We have explored the forest, the wonderful Mossman gorge, Cape Tribulation and had cruised the river while searching for crocodiles, which we have been lucky enough to see.
