This is a great tour for those who only want to spend a half-day out or are short on time. We visit two areas on this trip, Daintree River and Mossman Gorge.

We begin with a drive along the Captain Cook Highway, on the way to the Daintree River, and share a little history along the way.

Here, we board a cruise along the Daintree River, looking out for local wildlife, including the estuarine crocodile, snakes, birds, frogs, and more.

After the Wildlife Cruise, we enjoy morning tea with Lamingtons and tea/coffee.

Once in Mossman Gorge National Park, we conduct an interpretive walk along an elevated boardwalk. Weather dependent, we can enjoy a dip in the crystal-clear rainforest stream, whilst being surrounded by the beautiful and healing Mossman Gorge rainforest.

What a memorable way to spend your morning!
