Explore Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation on an expert-led 4WD safari, where guests can observe native wildlife in its natural environment, marvel at breathtaking vistas, and gain insights into the region's diverse flora and fauna.



Embark on a thrilling journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation. Upon arrival, step aboard a luxurious 4WD vehicle equipped with state-of-the-art amenities. This high-tech ride allows you to immerse yourself fully into the natural wonders awaiting you ahead.

The 1-hour guided cruise begins by offering a delightful pre-cruise refreshment service, including freshly brewed teas, coffees, and light snacks. During this picturesque excursion, you have the opportunity to observe a variety of aquatic life, ranging from juvenile estuarine crocodiles to the magnificent 4-meter adult specimens. As the boat navigates through the serene waters of the Daintree River, you gain insight into the diverse bird species and flora that inhabit this lush ecosystem.

Upon reaching the Alexandra Range Lookout, situated amidst the verdant expanse of the rainforest, you are greeted by panoramic vistas of the rainforest canopy, the vast ocean, its captivating coral reefs, and the awe-inspiring Daintree River. Here, you embark on a 45-minute guided tour led by knowledgeable local guides who share fascinating facts about the park's rich biodiversity.

Next, proceed towards the Jindalba boardwalk, which offers a unique perspective on the park's majesty. Marvel at the ancient 900-year-old palm trees while keeping an eye open for the elusive Boyd's Forest Dragon, one of the region's most intriguing inhabitants. Afterward, return to your vessel for a leisurely lunch beneath the sheltering branches of these colossal trees, served in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest, just moments away from Cape Tribulation Beach.

Following lunch, continue your adventure as you traverse the Bloomfield Track en route to Emmagen Creek. Relax and rejuvenate with a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters of this pristine freshwater swimming spot.

Arrive at Cape Tribulation Beach to enjoy a leisurely stroll along the shoreline, admiring the mesmerizing views. For those eager to stretch their legs further, venture onto the nearby botanical boardwalk leading to the Cape Tribulation beach lookout.

Post-beach exploration, indulge in a culinary delight at Daintree's hidden gem, the Daintree Ice Creamery. Experience a true gastronomic treat with an exclusive sampling of exotic tropical fruits crafted into delectable ice cream. Indulge in a signature scoop of ice cream, ensuring your sweet tooth is perfectly satisfied.

As twilight descends upon the land, bid farewell to the scenic beauty of Daintree and Cape Tribulation with a nostalgic journey back to Port Douglas and Cairns. At your accommodation, rest and prepare for another exciting day filled with unforgettable experiences waiting to unfold.
