Our guided walk with Neil was fantastic - such great knowledge and expertise. Couldn't recommend doing the guided walk with him more.

The Daintree National Park is huge. Technically it spans both parts of the river which you have to cross by ferry in your car. Forget a tour company - do yourself a favor and see it on your own. The roads were easy to drive and on our day trip from Port Douglas we visited Cape Tribulation (beach and lookout for over an hour - at times the only ones on this pristine beach), we hiked one of the boardwalks and was a cassowary and her baby, we visited the famous ice cream place and had amazing tropical ice cream and walked around the property looking at the trees, and we visited the lookout for views. That was a full day. We would have needed more time to see/do more in Daintree. Maybe next time we'll consider spending the night. It's where 2 UNESCO world heritage sites meet and there's plenty to do here but I recommend do it yourself by car. I watched the way the small tours operate and I would have been miserable on their prescribed highlights. One of the tours didn't even let them people but 5 minutes on Cape Tribulation beach - what a pity for them!

This white sand beach separates the rainforest from the reef. Box jellyfish are in these waters during the summer months.

Quiet. Beautiful and a great place to relax and watch the water and boundary rainforest. A must to see in the Daintree.

This Gorge is the epitome of Daintree Tropical Forest. Once inside the park, a shuttle bus takes you to the trail heads. The rain forest circuit walk is only 1.5 miles and is stuffed full of amazing plants, trees, and darting small animal. Sign on with an indigenous guide at the visitor's center, a most excellent information hub, to explain the medicinal uses of and spiritual significance of the flora you walk thru. Much of the plant life is injurious to your skin so be aware, don't touch, just look. Mooks is an indigenous guide, who will give you an unforgettable experience on many levels during your Dreamtime Walk.

A pleasant walk through the rainforest with information boards and leading down to the fabulous Myall beach. There is a picnic area and two sets of toilets so well worth a stroll
