Reviews
My husband and I enjoyed this trip. Our guide was very good. He's very upbeat so it helps set the mood for the day. The trip was at a good pace so we did not really feel so rushed in each site we visited. We recommend this tour
The stay at Cape Tribulation was far too short on the full day trip. Less time at Mossman Gorge could have allowed a longer stay at Cape Tribulation.
Highly recommended! Chris was the most passionate tour guide I've met - he was very keen to share his knowledge and love for the area, and made an effort to make friends with everyone on the tour :
The guide/driver was knowledgeable and engaging. The MossmanGorge was beautiful and he took us to several different sports for wonderful views. Nice easy walk in the Daintree Rainforest as he explained the biological diversity. Lunch at Cape Tribulation was fine. We took a short river cruise where we spotted crocodile. It was a long day, but well worth the cost. It's amazing that he was able to drive the mini-van as well as provide the narrative for the tour -- well done.
Terrible trip, terrible guide. The guide, Eli, was late and shortened our visits to various locations to compensate for the lateness. He frequently asked if we wanted to skip a scheduled visit since it is just a drive through anyway seemingly as a way to end the tour early. I took friends on this trip with us and they said they would never use a Viator tour again. I have been on 6 or more Viator trips and have had a wonderful experience on all others however, this trip made me question Viator's qualifications for their tour guides and itineraries.
JJ made the tour.. he is a very interesting story teller. The only thing was the lunch was not very good at all but the ice cream stop was Thumbs up!!!!
The tour was very well organised and it even took old travellers with mobility issues to thoroughly enjoy the experience. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, particularly in the field of horticulture/agronomy of local plants. The tour is expensive, but I highly recommend it because I learned so much from it. There was a real cameradery among the travellers on the coach.
A full day of activities, and all things I would not have seen had I not taken this trip. Excellent tour
