★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,326 reviews · from $190Our pick

Review of a Port Douglas Daintree tour with Mossman Gorge, crocodile cruise, Cape Tribulation, rainforest walks, lunch, and practical tips.

“An excellent tour, and Cam was a fantastic guide. Has everything you need to cover a day tour, walks, boat trips, scenic driving, and seeing plenty (crocs, snakes, spiders - all from a distance!) of wildlife. Small group which rices enough time to ask questions. Would not hesitate to recommend the trip, and hopefully you also land with Cam as your guide!”

ABC Reef Safaris offers a small-group outer Great Barrier Reef day from Port Douglas, with marine biologists, quality gear, lunch, and guided snorkeling.

“The entire day was excellent. My wife and I spent a lot of time researching the different options, and we went with ABC based on the small dive group and guide expertise. We were not disappointed. The small group made it so everything was personalized and educative. Furthermore, this meant we visited reef sites without anyone else around us, and they were able to choose the reef sites with calmer waters and vibrant wildlife. We saw pretty much everything advertised (except the skittish Reef Shark). An added benefit is during the swims either Callum or Paula are with you, pointing out fish, giving educational information, and checking in to make…”
