- Follow your expert guide on a walk through the Daintree Rainforest
- Take a 1-hour river cruise aboard a 100% solar-powered boat
What to expect
Jump aboard a zero-emission boat and start the day with a Daintree Rainforest River cruise. This boat can glide quietly up to crocodiles and other wildlife without scaring them or hurting their habitat. The boat is fitted with the unique “Croc Cam” to help show well-camouflaged crocodiles and wildlife.
Your next stop is Mossman Gorge, nestled in the World Heritage-listed Daintree Rainforest. The gorge contains the oldest, continuously surviving rainforest on earth, more than 100 million years old. Your ‘welcome to country’ is offered by an experienced indigenous guide, who will show you traditional plant use and body paint whilst providing an enchanting narrative of the rainforest and their special relationship with this unique tropical environment.
After your welcome to country, your guide will lead you through the Daintree Rainforest, showcasing the unique plants, animals and features of the rainforest. Enjoy some free time to swim in the crystal-clear waters of Mossman Gorge, surrounded by large granite boulders. These rocks contain a percentage of quartz and the waters are known to be healing to your body, mind and soul.
