Small-Group Trekking Experience in Daintree National Park

Highlights

We offer fully guided walks along 'real natural bush trails' amongst the highest diversity of Tree's, vines, and ancient medicinal plants on the planet. Some species have been here since the beginning of life on land and many are thousands of years old, join us and time travel with our Biological Scientist Guides as we search for Cassowary and Lophosaurus. Our tours are in Old Growth Tropical Rainforest on a private nature preserve surrounded by the Daintree National Park. We have exclusive access, perfect for getting off the boardwalks 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 20 years of experience working in this rainforest and connecting people to nature; explaining its holistic processes, history, and evolution. Our tour content is current and scientifically accurate information however, weird and wonderful facts and story telling are more reflective of our 'fair-dinkum' personality. Only 10 persons/walk, we can offer custom walks with advanced notice.

Why take this tour?

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 only we use identifying 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 20 years experience in guiding visitors from all over the world so language differences are not an impediment to providing everyone an enjoyable experience.
