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.

    Great trip but a long one - 7am pick up & nearly 7pm drop off.
    Had a bit of adventure when the river cruise boat struck a submerged log but it was all handled very professionally.
    Lunch was ok, didn't go for a swim as it was cold & rainy.
    Unfortunately it rained while we did our rainforest walk & again on the beach walk. Interesting info on the rainforest walk though.
    The ice cream stop was awesome.
    A long day of travelling.

    Had an amazing day. It was great to see the western side of the range. A whole new perspective. AJ was very knowledgeable.
    The tour was well catered and the experiences were really interesting. A very nice balance.

    Billy Tea Safaris and Down Under Cruise & Dive were absolutely amazing!! My husband and I did the 3 day reef, rainforest, and outback tour, and really feel that it helped us make the most of our time in Cairns. Skipper Mike and Deck Supervisor Kiki aboard the Evolution were great hosts, and Skipper Mike even invited us into the bridge and gave us his tips about local places to stop on our way down the coast. Our guide for the outback and rainforest days was Gav. We cannot say enough amazing things about him. Incredibly knowledgeable about all things Australia, and such a great conversationalist. Beyond the nonstop learning, he also went above and beyond SEVERAL times on our tours by showing us hidden gem spots or asking if we wanted to do a little extra excursion. My husband and I wish we could just hire him to take us down the rest of the Australian coast for the rest of our honeymoon. Thanks a million to this team!

    A very full day of adventuring throughout FNQ. The Mercedes bus was extremely comfortable, and our guide, Michelle, was knowledgeable and funny. The lunch was lovely, and our many stops were well planned. Definitely well worth the money! We would highly recommend to anyone who wants a great overview of crocs, indigenous lore, beaches and rainforests. Photos and memories to keep with us for a long time!

    Michelle gave us an amazing tour with my family! She was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable! She helped when I started to feel sick, was flexible with our touring itinerary, and overall shared a ton of information about Australia/Cairns. It was such a unique experience and so much fun.

    We had the absolute pleasure of joining Cairns Adventure Tours on an epic 4WD adventure. We started with a hotel pickup in Cairns in their very comfortable 4WD Isuzu truck which took across rainforest creeks to see some spectacular waterfalls and giant strangler figs. Tony and Tash then took us back to their customised 4WD and after an introduction to navigating the tracks handed over the keys to give us an adrenaline pumping ride through 4WD tracks designed to simulate tracks found in far north Queensland.
    So lucky to have found these guys...gave us memories to last a lifetime.

    Excellent Tour. Very well organised. the tour guides Carston & Steve. Both very informative. Steve was fun, safe with his driving. He was fun to be with & nothing too much trouble. The tour covered the rainforest. We got to stay in the rainforest. The hotel in Cooktown was very comfortable. Would recommend this tour. Ask for Steve & you will enjoy the tour.

    A well organised tour. We had a fabulous tour guide in Alfred. He was very knowledgeable and thoughtful of the needs of varying people on the bus. A highlight was the train from Kuranda and the contrast between the magnificent Daintree Rainforest and the vastness of the Outback. The accommodation both in Cairns and Cooktown was good. We particularly liked the Sovereign Resort Hotel in Cooktown.

    The tour is better than the brochure!

    A small an intimate half day tour with Driver and Tour Guide Mick. The tour vehicle is very comfortable and appropriate for Cairns rainforests and outback.

    We saw Kuranda, Waterfalls, Rainforests, local flora and fauna, 800 year old trees, easy 4w driving, swam in breathtaking rivers over ancient volcanic rocks, tasted tropical fruits and the professional commentary was interesting and educational. A great family and adult day sightseeing, with fabulous customer service.

    The commentary from Mick was knowledgeable and funny. What a great day. Highly recommend this Cairns tour.

    Absolutely fabulous tour . Flew up and drove down the Cape. Laurence our driver and guide was awesome. 3 couples , newly acquainted traveling in a Toyota 7 seater Land Cruiser loved every place and experience. Food fabulous and very plentiful, accommodation varied from basic to luxury but all clean and comfortable. I can thoroughly recommend this tour as a unique way to visit “the Tip” for anyone who wants a genuine outback experience. Thanks for a most memorable 9 days .

    Darren was a remarkable guide. We explored the Daintree rainforest with him in September 2022. He was extremely informative and really brought the intricacies and history of the rainforest alive. He was also a fascinating conversation partner. He was flexible in terms of timing and good natured to a tee. We would recommend Darren unreservedly for any tour you'd wish to take.

    Loved my camping experience, the wide open spaces and blue skies. Although we had some issues with the truck huge efforts were made to make sure we continued on our tour with only one destination missed. Interesting bunch of people, loved the quiet way Adam guided us to take care of ourselves and shared his extensive knowledge of fauna and flora. I made a special friend and highly recommend this company.. and I plan on doing another trip next year.
