We would highly recommend... - We would highly recommend this day trip! You get to see so much of Cairns in just one day! We got to swim in 3 different incredible locations - one with a “water slide,” one with a waterfall, and one with a gorgeous relaxing lake. Our tour guides were also AMAZING - Jenna and Sacha - shared so much knowledge and history and were really fun to spend the day with. We could not recommend this trip enough - such a fun day!

Great day! - Anton (and Jenna) were great! Anton was very knowledgeable and took tons of pictures for the group - all of which were given to us for free at the end of the trip - a great surprise! He even took us off the itinerary for a short stop at a place known to have platypus, and we did see two, which was awesome. Overall a great day and well worth it.

Such a pleasant surprise - It was the last tour we booked after snorkelling in the outer reef, Kuranda, tubing and Daintree /Cape tribulation. It turned out to be my favourite, by far. It was a small tour so we were able to get to know everyone and our tour guide Anton was the best. I can't believe this guy from Germany knows so much about this part of Australia. We love you ANTON!!!! You have to do this tour. Ask for Anton. The guy is a legend

We were very disappointed... - We were very disappointed with this company. Our tour was cancelled at the last minute due to insufficient bookings. They offered a replacement that was only half the time and a shorter itinerary of the original tour. When I requested refund, they advised that it might not be guaranteed because I booked it through Viator. Overall, it was frustrating experience, and I would advise others to be cautious when booking with this operator.

Lack of reliability and poor customer service. - I had a very disappointing experience with this tour company when booking through viator. My original tour was cancelled due to “weather conditions,” even though the day was sunny with no rain or unsafe conditions. I was rebooked for another date, only to have that tour cancelled as well—this time due to low enrollment. After these repeated cancellations, the company did not provide the refund that was owed to me. I understand that weather and scheduling issues can happen, but cancelling multiple times for questionable reasons and then not honoring a refund is unacceptable. I would not recommend this company based on their lack of reliability and poor customer service.
