Amazing!
They always do such an awesome job. Their guides are well knowledgeable, friendly, super approachable and kind. They all have safety as their main focus on the tour but also are really good at making sure everyone’s having a good time. This is the second time I’ve done this tour and if you get the chance to have Clint or Clinton you’re gonna have an unforgettable time! Thanks so much guys for making such an awesome trip yet again.

Wonderful waterfall tour
Highly recommend this tour! We were fortunate to be guided and looked after by Chandan on our day out to the Atherton Tablelands. Even though it was cold and rainy,the locations were spectacular and knowledge provided by our guide was fantastic. Very memorable trip

A bit of everything
This is the tour that will give you tastes of every bit. Enough time for swimming at the waterfalls. Enough time for wandering around but not to complete a whole 3km trail at lake echam. Our tour guide was Bubbles, he's super fun, giving information along the way, giving good recommendations, taking great photos for us. We saw tree kangaroo which is rare at the curtain fig tree
