Commonly asked questions.
No. The two tours can be taken on separate days, making the package a flexible option for your Cairns holiday. The tours can also be taken in either order, subject to availability. If you have particular dates in mind, please contact us and we can help arrange the best combination.
Both tours operate from Cairns with coach transfers included. Pick-up arrangements and times can vary depending on your accommodation and the particular tour operating that day. Full pick-up details will be provided with your booking confirmation.
No - this COMBO features 2 separate full day tours. We'll pick you up from your self oarranged accommodation each morning.
Yes, swimming opportunities are available during the Waterfalls Tour, including at locations such as Babinda Boulders, Josephine Falls and Lake Eacham, subject to local conditions and any safety restrictions in place on the day. Swimming is optional, so you can still enjoy the tour if you prefer to stay dry.
Swimming is possible at Mossman Gorge. Swimming in the ocean at Cape Tribulation is not advised due to crocodiles.
The itinerary includes a fantastic selection of rainforest and natural attractions. Depending on conditions and the day's itinerary, highlights include Babinda Boulders, Josephine Falls, Millaa Millaa Falls, the Atherton Tablelands, Mount Hypipamee Crater, Dinner Falls, the Curtain Fig Tree, a platypus-spotting location and Lake Eacham.
Yes. Lunch is included on both days of the package. The Waterfalls Tour includes a buffet lunch, while lunch is also included on the Cape Tribulation and Daintree tour. Dietary requirements should be advised when booking.
Day two takes you north along the spectacular coastal road towards the Daintree. Highlights include Mossman Gorge, an Indigenous Welcome to Country experience, crossing the Daintree River, Cape Tribulation, a guided rainforest walk at Marrdja, Cape Tribulation Beach, Alexandra Range Lookout and a Daintree River wildlife cruise. There is also an opportunity to visit Port Douglas on the return journey.
The Daintree River wildlife cruise provides an opportunity to see crocodiles in their natural environment, along with other wildlife. Sightings are never guaranteed because these are wild animals, but the experienced cruise guides will look for crocodiles and explain the unique ecosystem of the Daintree River.
The tours are designed for most reasonably active travellers rather than serious hikers. The Waterfalls Tour is listed with a low fitness level, although you should be comfortable walking on rainforest paths, getting on and off the coach and potentially walking over uneven surfaces. The Daintree day also involves some walking, including a guided rainforest boardwalk.
