If you’re wondering what to do in Daintree rainforest, you’re spoiled for choice. This isn’t a one-stop sightseeing spot – it’s a whole mix of river cruises, reef trips, boardwalks, beaches, wildlife encounters, cultural tours and low-key local experiences.

Whether you’re chasing the big-ticket Daintree activities like reef and river tours, or you’re more into slow wanders, swimming holes (the croc-free ones!) and good food, you’ll find plenty of ways to fill your days. You can do it all on your own, or let local operators lead the way with small-group Daintree tours that dig deeper into the rainforest, reef, culture and wildlife.
