Journey into the Daintree — the world's oldest tropical rainforest, older than the Amazon — with a private expert guide. Stand where rainforest meets reef at Cape Tribulation Beach, one of the most biodiverse places on Earth. A once-in-a-lifetime immersion in UNESCO World Heritage wilderness.
What to expect
Your private guide collects you from the port in a luxury 4WD and heads north across the Daintree River ferry crossing into one of the planet's last ancient rainforests. Pause at elevated canopy boardwalks to spot cassowaries and flying foxes, then push north to Cape Tribulation where the Coral Sea laps the rainforest's edge. A curated lunch stop at a rainforest retreat is included before returning along the coastal road.
