Felt like visiting with a friend - Mossman and Daintree Experience was a wonderful day out. Simon explained so much about the area and we covered a lot of different places. Highlights were seeing wildlife and paddling in river. A very tasty local lunch was included too. Would highly recommend

Simply Amazing - What can I say, Simon has wealth of knowledge in this field and he educated us so well , things we would have never known. We had a wonderful experience and Simon as a person, was very friendly and entertaining at the same time. My wife and I had a really great time. I would definitely highly recommend Tropic Tours.
