Trusted by thousands of travellers every year.
"Day Tour Cape Tribulation and Daintree - Lisa, was the best tour guide, very knowledgeable having lived in the Daintree herself. Personally I would have preferred to forgo the wildlife habitat and stopped at Mossman gorge. Lots to see and stops are quick but that’s what I have found with all the bus trips in these parts."
"Thank you Dave for making our Cairns day experience a memorable one! You really went out of your way to make it a wonderful tour and your commentary was very informative and the Date Scones for afternoon tea was exceptional! Terry was an absolute pleasure to have as our guide on our Cape Tribulatio, Daintree and Daintree river crocodile experience! What an absolute gentleman and wealth of knowledge and passion that he has! Well done Tropic Wings to you and your wonderful staff! We would highly recommend your services to anyone contemplating touring around Cairns. Thank you for some memorable experiences!"
"Daintree Rainforest Tour: We had a great time on the tour ! We got to see crocodiles, different species of plants and birds, and even a snake. The highlight of the experience was definitely our tour guide: David. He was incredibly knowledgeable, explained everything in great detail, and added plenty of humor along the way, which made the tour even more enjoyable. However, I felt that the activities were a bit too rushed. We usually spent around 20–25 minutes at each stop, and there wasn’t much time to explore. For example, there was only about 20 minutes available for swimming during the lunch break. We decided to skip it rather than rush through the experience. As someone who enjoys hiking and exploring nature, I also found that most walks were only 5–10 minutes long before we had to head back to the bus. On the positive side, lunch was delicious, especially the meat! Overall, I’d recommend this tour to families travelling with parents or grandparents, or anyone looking for a relaxed and informative introduction to the Daintree Rainforest. However, if you’re a more adventurous traveller who enjoys hiking, spending time in nature, and exploring places at your own pace, you might find the tour a little too short and structured."
