We had an amazing time with Neil, who introduced us to the sights, sounds AND the culture of its indigenous people. Furthermore we were enlightened on the challenges of managing the Forest. Neil is p… Full review by Delcar77

If you're looking for a walk that's both informative and engaging, this 2-hour tour is a must-do! Neil did an amazing job of sharing the history from the indigenous peoples' perspective, which was in… Full review by marcekpl

Amazing guide in Neil who showed us around his own land. Loads of knowledge about the rainforest. Has strong views about the politics of conservation and tells it like it is. Unmissable Full review by Davidlcohen
Hi, We are looking for a wildlife tour from Cow Bay on July 31st. We also have a one year old, but have a hiking backpack and car seat. Which tour is our best option for spotting the local wildlife especially the Cassowary? Thanks!
A:
Will this give us a good opportunity with only 2 hours to spot wildlife? Do you charge for babies?
What are November/December months like in the Daintree? I also see you offer several tours - which one is best for two people obsessed with nature but who cannot walk up steep slopes/do anything too challenging fitness-wise?
A:

As an inhabitant, I prefer this time of the year, particularly if there is heavy rain. Monsoonal rains have historically arrived mid-November, but not for the past six-years. Of course, the temperatures are higher, but in the rainforest, maximum temperature is 34C, but with very high humidity, this can be quite oppressive. Visitor numbers tend to reduce, with an intensification of visiting friends and relatives of North Queensland residents around Xmas. We offer two walks only: A 2-hour 1.5KM Grand Fan Palm Gallery Tour and a 4-hour 6.5KM Greater Wilderness Experience. The former is completely within the latter. Neither walk should be attempted if unaided walking for those respective distances is a challenge, as the complex root-structure on the forest floor and the little ups and downs are commonplace. For two people obsessed with nature, but uncertain about difficulty, so long as you can both walk for a couple of hours without aide, the Grand Fan Palm Gallery Tour is the safer option and perhaps a good trial for the Greater Wilderness Experience. Hope this helps. Neil.
We will be driving to the rainforest from PD in mid March. I've two questions. 1. Is it possible to join a guided tour of the rainforest ?. 2. What shoes are appropriate ? Thank you.

It is possible. You would need to specify the date, so that availability can be considered and the tour preference: Either a 2 OR 4-hour guided, interpreted walking tour. As for shoes, flip-flops & stilettos are out. I personally wear rafting sandals (such as Tevas), but sneakers or dedicated walking shoes/boots are all good. mIf you choose the 4-hour Greater Wilderness option, there may be water crossings requiring wet feet.
We are looking for a guided day tour of the rainforest from Cairns. We want to take in as many sights as we can in the day. Can you help us with this?

Hi. Daintree Rainforest occupies the centrepiece of the last remnant of the oldest rainforest in the world. Guided, interpreted walking tours are available daily. There are two options: 2-hour Grand Fan Palm Gallery Tour OR 4-hour Greater Wilderness Experience. The former is a subset of the latter, but the Greater Wilderness covers around four-times the rainforest. All visitors have to make their own way to Daintree Rainforest. Hope this helps with your holiday planning.

Hi Svmhatre, Daintree Rainforest is a particular attraction within a broader landscape with confusing identity issues. Currently there are no organised tours that include Daintree Rainforest, so you would have to drive yourself or get a charter transportation service to be able to take a guided walk with us. Perhaps Juan Walker of Walkabout Adventure Safaris might be able to include an experience within ourDaintree Rainforest. Having your own transport is highly recommended for the region about our Daintree Rainforest.
