Rainforest tours

Rainforest of Tropical North Queensland

Australia boasts the oldest tropical rainforest in the World.

The UNESCO World Heritage list the tropical rainforest of outstanding Universal value.

The Wet Tropics of Queensland covers an area of 893,453 hectares.  This rainforest area is a narrow strip along the east coast of far north Queensland.  Starting just north of Townsville and continuing almost to Cooktown.

Experience the Wet Tropics of North Queensland in one of the numerous ways. Which way suits you best?

Please sit back and relax on a scenic railway trip as this old train winds its way through the rainforest to the village of Kuranda.

Glide over the top of the canopy on the Cairns Skyrail.

Hold on, as you wind through the ancient forest while white water raft down one of the mighty rivers.

Take a peaceful guided walk and breathe in some of the fresh rainforest air.

Take a boat tour down the Daintree River always on the lookout for crocodiles sunbaking on the shores and a vast array of birdlife.

Personalised 4WD tours are a great option and come in styles to suit the adventurous and the not so brave.

Long before James Cook arrived in Australia, the Aboriginal people have been living in this region.

Visit the Mossman Gorge Centre, Experience a guided Dreamtime Walk learning about this pristine region.

Learn about Australia’s Indigenous population and their connection to the natural environment.

COVID safe Tour Protocols & Procedures

Pre-screening

Wherever possible, Reef Trips will seek to pre-screen crew and passengers prior to attendance, in line with identified public health processes.

  • Maintenance of effective records, survey/questionnaire responses and other customer information may be vital in the community response to COVID-19. Records including pre-screening and contact details will be kept for a minimum two-month period.
  • Pre-screening also helps to increase staff and customer confidence that they are safe.

Social distancing

Due to the nature of COVID-19 and the manner in which the virus spreads (through close contact with an infected person or touching a contaminated surface), the most effective way to slow transmission of the virus is through physical distancing and hygiene practices.

In all contexts, our staff will facilitate practices which support appropriate social distancing aligned to most recent advice from the Chief Health Officer.

Our management and crew will remain up to date with health advice and to ensure compliance, above and beyond the details outlined in this document.

Indoor and outdoor areas have been calculated for maintaining a density of no more than 1 person per 4-meter square of floor space.

Cleaning & Hygiene

Management will:

  • Promote frequent and effective hand washing by all staff, customers, and visitors.
  • Have cleaning and disinfect products readily available with instructions on safe & effective cleaning & disinfecting procedures.
  • Ensure adequate time and resources are provided for enhanced cleaning procedures to be undertaken.
  • Ensure appropriate training for staff to implement enhanced cleaning procedures in line with contemporary practice.
  • Have alcohol-based hand sanitiser and or hand washing facilities with soap readily available to staff and customers for regular use.

Marine Tourism COVID Safe Requirements
