Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- scvroseFiddletown, CA1,194 contributionsSeastar dropped us off before the island we swam in. Enjoyed watching the hundreds of birds making their nest on this slender piece of land. One of my highlights.Written 18 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- CarloHelmondHelmond, The Netherlands725 contributionsWe stayed in Millaa Millaa and had an early start to the day. Driving the waterfall circuit makes for a nice drive and includes 3 water falls (Millaa Millaa falls, Zillie falls and Ellinjaa falls). All are within easy walking distance and provide you with some great views. Early in the morning you have to place to yourself and it is very serene. There are many activities in the area, but have a look first if they are open. We called on some place that were closed during the winter season or had limited opening hours. The area is well worth your visit, unless you are just here for the highlights.Written 23 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Richard G1 contributionGreen Arrow excellent walk….Worth starting at Green Arrow and continuing onto the Blue Arrow track to the botanical gardens….

- simply-peregrinatingWaddington, UK2,723 contributionsBy Cairns library in the trees hundreds of bats roost during the day. It's quite smelly if you walk below the trees! At dusk they start to wake and make quite a noise before flying off for the night. Our hotel was on the western edge of Cairns and each night they flew directly over the hotel.Written 13 October 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He certainly made sure our day was at a relaxing pace, safe and enjoyable, providing tasty food along the way. I’m sure there wasn’t a point of interest we didn’t cover. The views and scenery got better as the day progressed. Yes it rained but hey we are in the tropics. Thanks Marcio for a fabulous day!Written 30 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
