This tour was booked for us and honestly we had no idea what we were doing for the day :)! It truly was the hi lite of our trip to Australia. Between learing about the different cultures, swimming at the Gorge, treking through the mangroves (a change of clothes is recommended) and watching our kids swim in the backyard with... More

What a wonderful day I had when I went on a tour with Juan. He was keen to share his knowledge and I learnt so much all in just a few hours.

Our guide Juan was very knowledgeable and informative. We did a whole day of exploring the mangroves, catching crabs and generally being looked after very well. Our lunch (cooked by his Mum!) was superb out in the forests. Would highly recommend to anyone in the Daintree area. More

The most wonderful thing we did in the Daintree was have a custom tour - one on one with Juan. He took us off the beaten track, he showed places where no other tourists were and he designed the day to what we asked for. It was fantastic. His historical aboriginal knowledge from his family who have lived there for... More
