Experience the ultimate Cape Tribulation Daintree Wildlife Adventure on this unforgettable full-day tour from Cairns or Port Douglas.

Enjoy a guided rainforest boardwalk where your expert guide reveals the secrets of this ancient ecosystem. Cool off with a refreshing swim at a freshwater swimming hole before heading to Cape Tribulation Beach, the only place in the world where two World Heritage sites meet, the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest.

Take in the great views from Alexandra Lookout, enjoy a tropical lunch in Cape Tribulation, and finish the day with a Daintree River cruise where you’ll search for wild crocodiles and other native wildlife in their natural environment.
