Lovely place to spend the day although it is very much a tranquil day out. It's a few hours north of Cairns so you'll have to travel for a few hours to get there but it's a beautiful place to visit. More

This one is pretty cool actually and worth visiting, but get there before it closes at 5, you need at least 2 hours, so get there before 3pm. More

We travelled to the Daintree with Down Under tours, the driver Ross could not be faulted. His information and detail was incredable. We walked on sandy Cape Tribulation, paddled in Mossman Gorge, boardwalked and learnt about nature at the discovery centre with Chris, ate in a serene setting beside a river, sailed up the Daintree river and spotted crocodiles and...

A must do but make sure you take mosquito repellant as they will eat you. Good way to get the feel of nature. More

A great place to visit to get your Australia souvenirs. The town is a tad on the touristy side of things but not too bad. More

The Daintree is a really cool place to visit, making a change from all of the beaches and towns.
