Get ready to explore the stunning Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation with Billy Tea Safaris - the Original Rainforest Tour guides that have been locally operated for over 38 years!

With small group sizes, comfortable custom-built air-conditioned 4WD vehicles and a local guide you will go further, see more and enjoy a personalised experience.

Once we have collected you from your accommodation your adventure begins with a spectacularly scenic drive north along the Captain Cook Highway to our first stop of the day the majestic Daintree River. On arrival, it will be time for a spot of morning tea (tea, coffee & biscuits) before embarking on a 1 Hour Daintree River Cruise where you will enjoy the informative commentary and try to spot some of the local wildlife including Estuarine Crocodiles.

Heading further north we arrive at Daintree Rainforest where you can stretch your legs with a guided tour along the elevated National Park Boardwalk. Your experienced guide will help you to identify flora and fauna as we search for the elusive, rare Southern Cassowary and other incredible wildlife.

Once we have finished our Rainforest walk it will be time to enjoy a tasty lunch at a local cafe. There is also time for a refreshing swim in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest. Cool down under the lush canopy, a beautiful experience you won't forget.

Next up, stroll along Cape Tribulation Beach and to the lookout - where the rainforest meets the reef! This stunning location is perfect for those who want to snap some beautiful photos and take in the scenery.

On our way to drop you back at your accommodation, we make one last stop at Daintree Ice-Cream Company for an exotic homemade ice cream.

Where the Rainforest meets the Reef

It was a great day. Gav, was amazing. Very knowledgeable, passionate, funny and cared about his community. I learnt a lot about mother nature, cyclone jasper, devastation, rebuilding naturally and within a community again. I have 2 young energetic boys and not once did he make me or them feel uncomfortable but very much welcomed.
