• 4A good day out with lots of experiences.

  Long day but saw, tasted and experienced a lot. Entertaining and informative guide (Chris) and we saw different landscapes, huge variety of agriculture - very interesting to see. Foods were interesting and tasty, although we'd had enough by the end. Most impressed by small production and tasting in a very nice house; then shop. Worth doing.

• 5Do this Tour!!!!!

  I know how hard it is to decide on which tour to pick. This is the one you need to choose. It’s a small group tour, and by the end of it you truly feel like you’ve gained a friend in the host. Simon was fantastic and deeply passionate about what he does. Whenever we are back in Cairns, I will definitely be seeking out tours operated by Simon and his company.

• 5Great day at the Atherton Tablelands

  It was a great tour. We covered many places of interest in the Tablelands. The tour guide was very informative and made you feel comfortable. The day flowed beautifully and would recommend to everyone to see and experience seeing these places. Great Job to the tour guide. I would do this tour again.

• 4Atherton tablelands

  The tour covered a wide area with lots of variety. The people at the coffee plantation and the distillery were so welcoming and friendly. Needed longer at both places. Both interesting stops. Natural features of the tour included highlights such as the curtain fig tree, the swamp and kauri trees. Unfortunately the waterfall was closed. Some great views from different lookouts. Overall a good tour.

• 5Unbelievably amazing day tour

  The learnings that I gained on this tour will sit with my soul for a very long time. Simon so generously teaches what he knows about the Atherton Tablelands area not just from an intellectual level but also from a deep spiritual level. He shares his deep knowledge and respect for the land, learned from living with and listening to Aboriginal communities. Gaining some understanding about the connection that Aboriginal nations in this area have with the magnificent trees such as the Cathedral figs within the rainforest was mind blowing. This tour helped me connect more with the deep teachings of this beautiful land and my culture. The diversity of this tour which Simon and Renee have created is truly remarkable and I cannot recommend it highly enough!!! Lynne from Wentworthville (Western Sydney) 🥰🌺☮️🌀

• 5Atherton Tablelands - Must Do!

  Booking at least one tour with Simon and Renae is an absolute must when in Cairns, and that is an understatement of the exceptional experience we had. Simon was immediately accommodating for my partner and I based on our preferences, and incredibly knowledgeable of wildlife (dare I say how lucky we got with two platypus sightings!). His passion is evident and infectious, and he ensured we were comfortable throughout the day. It was a blessing to have gone on such a side quest adventure through this company - cannot recommend it enough.

About Cairns & the Tropical North

Cairns is the gateway to Far North Queensland, with the Great Barrier Reef offshore, Daintree rainforest to the north and the Atherton Tablelands inland.

Cairns sits on Trinity Bay between the sea and a wall of forested ranges. The Esplanade has a public saltwater swimming lagoon and a long boardwalk beside mudflats where wading birds feed, and the Botanic Gardens hold tropical plants and a rainforest boardwalk. The city is the departure point for boats to the Great Barrier Reef, including the coral cay of Green Island and the rocky Fitzroy Island, and for flights over the reef.
