The temporary itinerary includes: return transfers from Cairns, Port Douglas and Northern Beaches, Scenic Coastal Drive, Daintree River Cruise with light morning tea of coffee, tea and biscuits, Interpretative drive over the Alexandra Range, Guided beach walk, Lunch in a rainforest setting, Tropical fruit ice-cream (included), Daintree River ferry crossing, Mossman Gorge guided rainforest walk on a selection of trails and elevated boardwalks (easy grade), visit the Mossman River Lookout and Suspension Bridge and enjoy an invigorating freshwater swim (swim is subject to river conditions).
This is the Original Daintree Rainforest Tour, locally owned and operated for over 36 years! Embark on a packed full-day adventure to Cape Tribulation, where the rainforest meets the reef.

Loved our tour with Graeme. Saw some spectacular scenery around the Daintree and Mossman Gorge. Loved the boat trip on the beautiful Daintree River. Highly recommend this relaxing way to see the Daintree highlights.

Amazing day. Grahame was an encyclopedia of knowledge from botany, history and ecological state of the rain forest. Wonderful day of sightseeing, visits and experiences with commentary throughout. We did not get to Cape Tribulation itself due to the after effects, and continuing restoration, of the devastating floods of Dec 23 - what we saw, though was probably as beautiful.
Highly recommended

The whole experience was amazing, from the tour itself to the places we visited, and our driver had a wealth of knowledge about the local area. The service from The Billy Tea Staff was excellent from our booking of the tour, first Class. My wife has dietary concerns, but our driver made sure she was looked after. This tour is well worth going on. Well done Bill Tea Safaris Team.

Gorgeous.
Guide Daniel adorable and knowledgeable to talk about plants.
The timing is respected despite the work.
No Cape Tribulation but another beach (rainy weather).
Thank you so much.

We were unlucky that due to landslides a spot was not available, but they arranged to show us something else, the boat ride, the walks in the forest and on the beach were beautiful. All safely.

The day started off great with an on-time pickup by the guide, Graham. He told the group to relax and get to know each other and then started driving us to our first stop. After driving 10-20 min, he started talking using a headset and speaker. I tried to understand him through the muffled speaker for about two minutes, but gave up and continued talking to my neighbor.
At the first stop, my seat mate got off the bus and asked Graham how much time we had. He responded "if you wouldn't have been talking while I was talking, you would know". I was shocked because he told us to chat with each other before he started the drive. We also couldn't understand what he was saying even when we weren't talking. My seatmate told him we couldn't understand him through the speaker and he told her something like "oh that's interesting because I can hear you perfectly". When everyone was back on the bus he made a speech about him not wanting to talk and tell us about the area if we're just going to talk over him. I felt horrible, embarrassed and wanted to literally zip my lips.
I wish Graham had requested that we refrain from talking while he spoke at the beginning of the tour to prevent him from becoming frustrated and scolding us like children. I felt intimidated to ask questions or speak on the bus for the rest of the day.
Despite the rocky start, I found Graham to be very knowledgeable about the area once we were off the bus. On land, he pointed out interesting plants and insects and shared fascinating facts about them. If I had the chance to redo the tour, I would have chosen a seat with a clearer speaker and kept quiet during the ride.
Overall, it was a pleasant day, but I wouldn't opt for another tour with Graham. His comments negatively affected my experience and hindered my enjoyment of the trip. I missed out on learning about the area due to the frustrating audio issues.

Had a great time in the daintree, very good pace and our guide Grahme was very entertaining and told us a lot of Australian history and cultural info. The lunch and ice cream they provided was great and you should definitely try the local barramundi fish while you're there. Unfortunately due to the heavy rainstorms we didn't get to see as many crocs or birds as we would have liked but it was a great trip regardless.

Me and 2 friends wanted to do the daintree tour together and were full of anticipation. However, this anticipation quickly turned into disappointment. The app said that we would be picked up at 7.10am and that we should be ready 5 minutes beforehand. However, after there was still no bus at 7:25 we contacted the organisation. They told us that the bus had already left without us. As a result, we missed the entire tour! We were referred to an email that had ended up in the spam folder, in which a tempting departure time of 7.00 a.m. was displayed. However, this information could only be found at the bottom of the email, while 7:10 was still stated at the top of the email. So in the mail 2 different times were mentioned. A stupid misunderstanding. However, I am disappointed that I did not receive a call or anything similar but was simply driven. They also had no understanding for my problem on the phone but rather blamed me. It should not be forgotten that we were 5 minutes late in total, which is not an eternity by any stretch of the imagination. Unfortunately, because of the misunderstanding, the unfortunate mail in the spam folder and a 5-minute delay, we are now stuck with the almost 140 euros.

Billy Tea tours did a great job. Our truck van had 15 people so it was a good size to get into the sights and not a big bus crowd. Our guide did a great job commenting on the sites and history, but also stopping for photo ops in key spots. We saw lots of crocodiles along the river banks which was very cool. Our guide also did a great job "ad-libbing" to the tour when there was road construction due to the recent cyclones, he took us to a secluded beach side trip that was fantastic! Great "audible" on the play calling!
