Next, board a Daintree River wildlife cruise, where your guide helps you spot crocodiles, birdlife, and other native species that thrive in this unique ecosystem . After a delicious lunch, continue into the world’s oldest living rainforest for a guided nature walk through lush undergrowth, mangroves, and towering trees before arriving at Cape Tribulation — the legendary point where rainforest meets reef .

Before returning to Cairns, enjoy a sweet stop at the Daintree Ice Cream Company, where you can sample locally made tropical flavours (optional, at your own expense) .
