(4 reviews)

1 hour 45 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

We venture deep into the Jungle only two kilometers from the Coral Sea on the slopes of a mountain blanketed in old growth rainforest amongst giant trees thousands of years old and plants and animals that predate dinosaurs.
We use a unique mixture of humour and accurate scientific information to tell the story of this unique forest where Kangaroo's live in tree's, a bird is bigger than a human and nothing is considered deadly to humans. Every plant and animal has a part in the story of this World Heritage listed ecosystem and we spend two hours on the 'hunt' along trails identifying and explaining the things we see explaining their part in the story of the worlds oldest continuously existing forest. Our guides are Wet Tropics accredited biological scientists who love to entertain, we are local to the area and have 23 years experience in guiding visitors from all over the world so language differences are not an impediment to providing everyone an enjoyable experience.

What to expect

Our tours are in Old Growth Tropical Rainforest on a private nature reserve surrounded by the Daintree National Park. Only 10 persons per walk, we can also offer custom walks with advanced notice. The two hour guided walks are along natural bush trails amongst the highest diversity of plants and animals on the planet, some species have been here since the beginning of life on land. Join us and time travel with our Guides as we search for Cassowary and numerous other bird species, Tree Kangaroos, forest dragons and butterflies.
The hike is perfect for getting off the boardwalks and away from the maddening crowds. It is hard to tell you are on a trail, no artificial boardwalks and railings to separate and detract from the natural surroundings.
Our eco-accredited guides are entertainers, local to the area, and have 23 years of experience working in the Daintree World Heritage Rainforest and connecting people to nature and explaining its holistic processes, history, and evolution. Our tour content is current and scientifically accurate however, weird and wonderful facts and story telling are more reflective of our 'fair-dinkum' personality.
