Ticket questions

Are national park fees included in tour prices?

Most full-day tours include the necessary fees, such as the Daintree River Ferry crossing. Check the specific inclusions for your chosen tour before booking.

Do tours operate in the wet season?

Yes, most tours operate year-round. You will need a lightweight rain jacket if visiting during the wet season.

Do tours guarantee crocodile sightings?

No. Crocodiles are wild animals. However, your chances are very high on the Daintree River cruise, especially during early morning or late afternoon.

Overall one of the best things we did during our time in Cairns! Unlike anything we’d done before and a massive shout out has to go to our amazing guide Sheryl/Shezza who absolutely made the tour. She was hilarious, informative and such a great ambassador for Cairns Adventure Group!!
