Fabulous few hours walking, snorkeling, swimming and rafting in the river. Our brilliant and friendly guides, Josephine and Sammi, made this such an enjoyable experience - loved by our whole group - 2 adults and 2 kids (9 and 11). We were also lucky with amazing weather and a small group of 5 for our trip. Would absolutely recommend this trip. Such a unique experience and a thoroughly fabulous way to experience the rainforest and the river!

Highly recommend this activity for singles, couples and families of all ages. It was fun and informative. The walking and floating and swimming are easy to manage towards the end of the dry season. It would be awesome if there were adult only tours. We (a couple in our mid 50s) ended up on a tour with 2 young families of 4 that slowed things down and made it a bit noisier than expected. Will and Josephine did their best to give us a private experience away from the families. Nonetheless, we wouldn't hesitate to do this again. Janie and Jim

We did the River Drift Adventure! It was so beautiful, drifting along the river under the canopy of the rainforest listening to the trees, birds and water! Vincent & Renee were great guides, very knowledgeable and friendly! Free photos of the day were amazing and greatly appreciated! A very very safe activity that doesn’t require a high level of fitness or swimming ability (although the river level was quite low when we did it, I believe it gets deeper depending on the season & rainfall). Highly recommended!

Our family (incl 2 teenagers) enjoyed our river drift experience. There was more walking than I expected, although it makes sense - to drift down the river, you have to walk upstream first. Our guides Will and Nike were enthusiastic and full of knowledge but we would have felt more comfortable if one of them would walk at the back of the group, instead of both at the front. Our 13yo was a little slower (the rest of the group were all adults) and we were a little behind the rest of the group a lot of the time. At one point we were even left behind - my son stopped to empty the sand from his boot and the group continued on without noticing (we called out but they didn't hear). They walked through the forest and we were lucky we were able to find them (the path is not clear). When we caught up they were in the middle of a talk about a tree, with no apparent recognition that 1/3 of the group was missing. It was rather disconcerting. Other than that it was a great experience, and the long river drift at the end is very relaxing and refreshing.

Leo & Josh were amazing - fabulous experience floating down the river and hearing the interesting narrative of the flora and fauna surrounds. Great “soft adventure”

Oh this was so special to float in Mossman River through the rain forest! Our guides Josh and Josephine were lovely. Definitely a highlight for the entire family! Highly recommend! So much fun!

We did the River Drift Experience and had a fantastic time! We had our 8 and 14 yr old daughters with us and our 17 yr old niece. All loved it. Josh and Josephine, our guides were accommodating and very knowledgeable. We learned heaps about the environment we were visiting. Highly recommend. Bonus points for having some of the least uncomfortable wet suits we have tried and for having inclusive sizes, including for rounder ladies!

We had a great afternoon with Will and Artemis, who were not only excellent guides and instructors but provided excellent insight about the environments we visited. We really enjoyed the river drift experience and highly recommend it.

Highly recommend the RiverDrift adventure! If you only have a few days for the rainforest and Mossman area, this is it! Joshua and Josephine were extremely interested in their work and keen to share their knowledge of the local fauna, flora and history. We went with family that included kids aged 12,15,16 and it was active, fun and engaging. We have had many tours and activities this week, including the reef and this rated above all for us!

My husband and I did the river drift experience and had the best time! Not only was it stunningly beautiful, our guides were friendly and knowledgeable, and we had so much fun drifting down the river! Highly recommend!

I did the River Drift in 2018 and it was amazing. Unfortunately second experience doing this tour was very average. The river drift is cut much shorter with only about 20 minutes of drifting down the river. A lot of driving and walking for an activity that only lasts 20 minutes is not worth the money or time. The guides were fantastic, it’s just that the river drift is way too short.

Had a blast on the river drift tour! It was the perfect blend of adventure and serenity. Floating down the river, surrounded by breathtaking scenery, was both exhilarating and peaceful. Sure, it required a bit of paddling, but that just added to the fun and sense of accomplishment. The guides were fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and truly made the experience unforgettable. Whether you're looking for a bit of exercise or simply a unique way to soak in the views, this tour is a must-try. Can't recommend it enough! 5 stars for an unforgettable day out off the beaten track.

Absolutely fantastic. Awesome time in an environment you will rarely enjoy. The guys were great, really knowledgable and lovely to spend some time with

We just completed the first Mossman River Drift tour after the Cyclone and floods, and it was absolutely brilliant. We did this same tour in 2022, and while it's now a slightly different experience, it is no less magical. Our guides Cisco and Vincent were great, and we had so much fun laughing and enjoying the beautiful cool water. Don't let the floods stop you doing this once-in-a-lifetime experience, escape the heat and float down the cool river.

My husband and I recently enjoyed a private tour of the Daintree Rainforest with our guide, Vincent, who spoke with great knowledge about the animals and especially, the plants and trees of the rainforest while leading us on walks through various areas. Additionally, he took us to Cooya Beach, where we had the opportunity to go spearfishing and mud crabbing with 2 aboriginal guides who, after spearing both crabs and a shovel nose ray, proceeded to invite us into their family home where they cooked their catch and shared it with us. It was a wonderful tour during which we had great once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
