    Amazing full day trip. You get to experience so much in such short of time. Definitely worth it for any age. Steph was an amazing tour guide, willing to pass on tips for best photo spots, join in on the fun, and overall cares about everyone’s well-being so everyone can have the best time ever. Highly recommend. Got some amazing photos, and had so much fun even with some rain on and off!!

    We absolutely loved this tour and would recommend it to anyone. Stu went out of his way to make the day amazing and is definitely a bucket list destination trip. It’s adventurous and fun for all ages and pushes you out of your comfort zone. Our best day in Cairns!

    I had so much fun on this tour and it's a great way to see a lot of remarkable landmarks if you only have a short time in Cairns. Karel was super knowledgeable about the area and helped make the trip as fun as it was. This tour is also super accessible and for all ages and physical abilities. High;y recommend 10/10!
