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.

- Curious486584137862 contributions'Breakfast with the Birds' was a nice brekkie & the bird presentations REALLY good, BUT not as OUTSTANDING as our Private Tour with your "Becca" - she was knowledgeable, had a sense of humour & a lovely enthusiasm & fondness for both the animals & also her role - my 10-year-old Grandson hung on every word PLUS asked lots of questions - a credit to how she made our Grandson feel at ease & eager to learn more.

- AussiebookloverMundingburra, Australia89 contributionsEntering the courthouse you get quite a start to see a real courtroom with life sized figures representing the people who were part of the trial that took place. You sit in the original jury seats and watch a video of the trial and at the end consider your verdict. There are also interesting photos and information about the Chinese gold miners in Port Douglas, the first marine biologists at Low Isles, and also information about the Battle of the Coral Sea.Written 27 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- pratibha46Sydney, Australia138 contributionsPort Douglas is about an hours drive from Cairns.
All the way you drive along mountains on one side and ocean on the other side. It reminded me of Great Ocean Drive.
The town has beautiful palm trees and their information centre has all the information about the surrounding of this World Heritage Listed place.
Accommodation can be from backpacks to luxurious Mirage Resorts.
Lots of eateries and coffee places.

- jensenne266 contributionsCould not have been happier from start to finish. From booking on the phone with a friendly and helpful assistant to our affable driver Edric arriving early this morning at our Cairns hotel, in his extremely clean and comfortable large Mercedez, through to his humorous & entertaining banter and tour guide information on our drive to our resort at Port Douglas. What a wonderful start to our holiday. Such a pleasure.Written 16 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Marion T1 contribution2 self-guided tours over 2 days. So much fun. Great bikes - pedal power mountain bikes one day and e-mountain bikes the next. Digital map and plb included. Really helpful staff. Fabulous scenery, river crossings. Even the rain on the second day added to the fun with a lot of mud. I’d recommend having some mountain biking experience.Written 2 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
