We did the Full Day Daintree and Cooktown Tour in Late July 2022. Our Guide, Doug, was awesome. He has an itinerary but is flexible if you have specific locations or a theme you want to stick to. In our case, we did "scenery" since I took lots of pictures.
You meet the guide at 8am and he takes you through a part of the rainforest only accessible by guides. The Bloomfield Track is mostly inaccessible to those not familiar with it. You have to drive through some streets and rivers, and you might need a snorkel. Be sure to let the guide know if you get motion sickness so he can take it easy.
A small, relatively healthy picnic lunch is included but bringing a snack and an extra bottle of water is recommended. Also, bring your own lunch if you have a special diet.
We were in Australia for 2 ½ weeks and this was one of the best days we had there. The information provided and secret locations known by the guides, as well as leaving the driving to them, made this worth every penny.
Note: We went in July, during the try season. The weather was perfect. Do your homework before booking a trip in the rainy season.
