WILD ESCAPES<br />
Small group touring allows you to interact with very knowledgeable guides. It also allows you to get up close to nature, see<br />
wildlife in the wild, avoid other “touristy” destinations and have those “once in a lifetime” unique experiences. The modern<br />
fleet of four wheel drive and two wheel drive vehicles will transport you to your destination in comfort and style.<br />

the <strong>World</strong> Heritage Listed forest region of Cape<br />

a cruise on the mirrored smooth waters of the<br />
Daintree River. You will cruise close to riverbanks<br />
and under the overhead canopy of the rainforest<br />
seeking out the vivid Ulysees Butterfly, Kingfishers<br />
and various other wildlife. Arriving on the northern<br />
side of the river we now enter the Cape Tribulation<br />
section of the Wet Tropics <strong>World</strong> Heritage protected<br />

waterfalls and Jindalba.<br />

impression will be at the outstanding panoramic<br />
picture postcard view at Alexandra Range Lookout.<br />
