- johnfarquhar20000 contributionsTully River WildsideAs 2 parents in their early 50's with a 13yr old we were excited and anxious about our first blow up rubber kayak trip down Tully River. With control over our own kayak we safely made our way down grade 3 and 2 rapids about 10 in total which took 2hours to complete through beautiful tropical rainforest. Looking forward to returning to Wildside for another trip down the Tully on our next visit to Mission Beach. Highly recommended.Written 7 December 2024

- Y4916QEemilyj0 contributionsGreat experienceWe had an absolute blast on the Tully with Wildside Adventures, big shout out to Leon for his enthusiasm to teach us about the river and his clear and easy to follow advice about rafting. We felt totally safe and confident following Leon down the river. Definitely recommend the full day trip with this company if you want to get the hang of handling a raft yourself! Thanks team!!Written 21 September 2024
- Discover226705855700 contributionsFirst timers, no worries!We had a great afternoon on the water with Leon and Stefan. For our young family, I couldn't recommend a better way to spend time together, outside of your comfort zone. These guys made it so easy for us (we had never paddled a kyak before). Thanks Leon, Stefan & Al.Written 16 September 2024
- T1184HFpeterl0 contributionsWicked rafting experienceHad a awesome half day on the river, Leon and the crew made if fun as well as what to do incase we had a spill made it super exciting, my son and I didn't flip but my friends we're not so lucky, was very funny, highly recommend.Written 12 August 2024
- petet710 contributionsWorth the journeyAbsolute cracker of a trip, took the son who had a blast too, Thanks to John, Shaun and Bell who were very knowledgeable and made it a heap of fun, highly recommend the drive.Written 7 July 2024
- Eliza48700 contributionsBest Day Out Ever!One of the most fun adventures you can have in a day! Thank you Johnny and Sean, you were so professional and safe. Brilliant day out with family and friends, action packed and in the most stunning wilderness, FNQ has it all. We will certainly be coming back!Written 30 June 2024
- janetpA3813UW0 contributionsClass act, knowledgeable, and perfect!Wildside Adventures is not your average white water rafting company; it is an experience like no other. From the moment you book your trip, the communication from owner Al is top-notch. He ensures that every detail is taken care of and that you are well-prepared for your adventure. The true stars of Wildside are the guides, Shawn and John. These two individuals are like a dynamic duo on the water. John’s enthusiastic and detailed instructions are paired perfectly with Shawn’s chill and concise guidance. Together, they created a seamless and exhilarating experience for our family who love to raft the rivers in the States. The white water rafting itself is thrilling and adrenaline-pumping for certain. What sets Wildside apart is the attention to detail and true love for the river. Shawn and John not only navigate the rapids with precision and skill, but they also take the time to point out the beauty of the surrounding flora and fauna. It’s like getting a nature tour and a white water adventure all in one. They know the history of the area and have paddled all around the world! I still can’t believe we had these incredible guys as our guides! My 8 year old and I had an epic flip in a class 3 which could have been terrifying but instead it was a great experience with Shawn right there to hoist my child and I out of the water. He grabbed the flipped kayak and ensured we were totally cool. John was beaming like a proud Father as he knew we would be ok and was supportive. Being a neurotic Mother and experienced oar boatwoman, I am quite selective with companies I utilize if we are outside of our comfort zone (rivers we know, inflatable kayaks, out of the country, etc). I did my research! Wildside doesn’t feel commercialized or like a cookie-cutter experience, instead it feels like you are embarking on a wild journey with friends who truly care about your safety, enjoyment, and the environment. I wish these guys lived stateside so we could raft with them more often.Written 29 June 2024
- 289theresej0 contributionsThe best day of our trip!!Amazing experience!!! We had the best day under the fantastic guidance of Leon and Sean. Beautiful rainforests, spectacular scenery and the most adrenaline fuelled white water fun through the stunning Tully river!! My husband and I are in our 50’s and it was the best day of our trip so far. Thanks guys!!Written 6 June 2024
- c_linebM9945EG0 contributionsGreat day on the water!We went for the half-day sports rafting tour and the rapids and thrills were wild! The guides are very experienced at teaching you how to steer the raft and what to do when things don't go to plan, and briefing you before each rapid to give you a plan of attack. We had one guide lead ahead and one follow behind to help us out if we needed it. Just challenging enough for a thrill while still feeling safe and supported - we had a few fall-ins and got stuck in a hole but got out of it unscathed thanks to our guides, so it was all part of the experience! Thanks again for a great day on the water! A definite must-do if you love adventure!Written 21 March 2024
- David B0 contributionsMarch Fly madness!!Very experience, Tourguide and a lot of fun down the river, but at this time of the year we did get eaten alive by March flies – not worth it for the five days of scratching bites afterwards. Only attempt this if you have a full body gimp suit at this time of the year, unless you like swatting the whole time and then scratching…Written 25 October 2023

Such a great experience! I am usually terrified of open water and Allan and Leah made me feel so comfortable that I didn’t want to get out of the water. Such a beautiful tour with wonderful scenery and marine life. Can’t rate Allan and Leah high enough ❤️

Great half day tour. Took us to multiple snorkelling spots, provided snacks and drinks and staff are very friendly. Went to a little cave for a look and had free time to look and explore Dunk island.
