Lake Barrine
After our drive from Cairns up the scenic but very twisty Gillies Range Road we arrive at Lake Barrine. A beautiful volcanic crater lake surrounded by the Rainforest. Firstly we take a break for afternoon tea and there is no better setting than Lake Barrine to enjoy it. Afterwards we take a slow walk through the surrounding forest searching for Forest Dragons and Musky Rat Kangaroos!
Atherton Tablelands
There is no better place close to Cairns to see some of the rarest animals in Australia in the wild. We spend the majority of our tour exploring the region searching for wildlife. Walking through the oldest tropical rainforest in the world is an amazing experience by itself. You will be immersed with all the sights and sounds within it. In the late afternoon coming up to sunset we then go searching for the Platypus. The thrill of catching sight of this amazing creature will always stay with you. We do not stop looking until we run out of time to make sure you get the best possible chance of success. That is why we really do see them 90% of the time :)

5.00When we were out of the van, it was fast-paced. We chased platypus up and down the river. Spotted pademelons, wallabies, possums, dragon lizards, spiders, toads, ... watched the bats head out for the night. It was all wonderful!
Fun and exciting platypus encounters

5.00Paul was a great guide. Very patient and knowledgeable. He made sure everyone in the group had a great view of all wildlife and I’m not just saying this because I’ve got a tree bet with him!

3.00Had great views of a platypus and Northern leaf-tailed gecko as well as possums. The guide was very knowledgeable in some species I knew little about. On the downside, there were times when we walked around and saw nothing and it became rather exhausting. I also think it would be better if the maximum was 8 people rather than 12. I was very happy with the animals I saw, but would have so loved to see a snake (third trip in a row to FNQ without seeing one) and a bandicoot (not seen in years), still can't complain!
Platypus!

5.00If you love wildlife, this is the tour for you. Paul has a great eye, experience, and patience needed to see the incredibly special creatures of the rain forest. Plus the elevation means that it's quite a bit cooler and more comfortable than the coast. Only drawback is the windy road needed to get to your destination.
Great rainforest adventure in Australia
