I thought this place was very expensive. Your admission included an audio tour using a hand held audio guide and your pass was good for a few days. Not helpful if you are driving through. If you have a great interest in Daintree then this is the place for you. The staff was helpful and answered all our question. There... more

I couldn't belive how much my 4 year old (who usually has the attention span of a goldfish) loved his day at the Daintreee Rainforest Discovery Centre. Three weeks later and he is still talking about what he learned that day. Wonderfull attraction. Not to be missed. more

As natural history enthusiasts, we very much enjoyed the effort that has been put into the natural history presentation we received at the Daintree Discovery Centre. We were delighted by the interpretation of this magnificent forest and its precious animals. As avid photographers, continuously capturing Australia’s animal and plant life, we found the climb into the canopy, which provided a... more

I didn't know what to expect when my sister recommended we go to the Daintree Rainforest Discovery Centre. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the visit! It is set up brilliantly and the staff is wonderful. The Daintree as a whole is stunning and well worth a visit. What is so impressive about the Discovery Center is... more

Having left Cairns as a resident in 1991, I recently returned to "rediscover" the region. Imagine my surprise and delight to find that the Daintree has now become an eco friendly accessible area complimented exceptionally well by the Daintree Rainforest Discovery Centre. What a fantastic experience - very informative and user friendly with entertaining walkways and audio commentary that caters... more

As a complete Daintree novice, the Daintree Discovery Centre helped to educate me on this fascinating part of the world. Some may argue that the DDC has the same trees and wildlife as any other area in the Daintree, which is true--but the amount of information that is provided at the centre helps to illuminate all of these things, making... more

We thought we knew alot about the "Daintree". This place is such a wealth of information regarding the native flora & fauna. We limited ourselves to an hour but nearly 2 hours went by. It is not like a zoo that is fenced off , when listening to the audio guide ( which is part of the entree fee) it... more

1.when you find a book number the best thing is to read it right where the sign is so if it pionts to certain things you know what it looks like. 2.when you find an audio guide number punch it in and stay at the sign for a couple of seconds then keep walking to the next number. 3.read the... more
