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 :)

5.00If 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

5.00Paul was highly knowledgable and entertaining. We had a great time with him guiding us through some beautiful parts of nature, while explaining a lot of interesting facts about the local animals and plants. He answered every question and was also very funny. The dinner was also great. We got very lucky, as we got to see platypus, rat kangaroos, tree kangaroos, pademelons and many other exciting animals! Can definitely recommend the trip to everyone.
Possums and foxes and platypus oh my!

5.00We were excited to get to experience some of Australia’s wildlife and this tour delivered! Paul was our guide and he was very passionate about the flora and fauna of Australia. We were able to see three platypus, flying foxes, possums, wonderful birds and more! Walking in the dark was magical with Paul pointing out night sky constellations. This tour is closer to Cairns so is easy if you have just one free day and are unable to get up into the Daintree Rainforest.
Small group, amazing animals, local expert guide

5.00Wonderful experience, the guide was incredibly knowledgeable in a multidisciplinary fashion: he took us on a journey through the area’s geologic, anthropological, botanical, and zoological history during the drive and the 5 stops. We saw, among many other things, 3 platypuses, several wallabies, hordes of fruit bats, rainforest birds, lizards, and incidental fun moments (a darter struggling to eat the giant crayfish it caught, nighttime glowing mushrooms).
A very knowledgeable host
