This was hands down the best activity on our cruise from Brisbane. A beautiful way to cool down while enjoying the pristine fresh water of the rainforest. The guides were super friendly and very insightful and informative about the region, the rainforest, the native flora and fauna as well as the cultural indigenous heritage tied to the location. If I were back up that way, I'd do this again.

The river drift snorkeling was amazing 😍 The lesson about the aborigenies was good, but much shorter than we expected. The walk in the rain forrest was a bit quick, but so cool and interesting and the swimming in between was very refreshing and nice. The whole day was a very memorable experience with the coolest quide😀

Such a magical time on the river. Highly recommended ! Thank you Vincent and Leo!!

Booked as a last minute “lets just do something” thing to do and it did not disappoint. The rainforest is incredibly beautiful and rafting though it on the river is such a fun activity. Vincent picked us up and looked after us for our tour. Very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the tour, answering questions and helping us to get the most out of the experience. Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting the area.

The Mossman Gorge Adventure Day with River Drift Snorkelling tour was fabulous. Artemisa was the best tour guide: her knowledge, communication, and energy made our day an unforgettable experience.

An unforgettable experience in a magical setting, led by excellent guides. Artemis and Leo made it great fun and were very generous with their knowledge and experience of the forest and the river. 5* for everything, even the weather!

It was the most unique experience.

Great tour! Very informative and knowledgable tour guides and a lovely mix of nature, fun and activities, while not being too strenuous!

Such an amazing day! Vincent and Francisco were amazing and made sure our young children were safe and taken care of. It was everyone in my family’s favorite experience in Australia!!

We had a wonderful time. It’s hard to find something that everyone enjoys (10, 15, 16, 53 year olds). It was informative, fun and beautiful scenery. Guides were friendly, clear with direction and knew their stuff. Definitely recommend and would do it again.

Had an awesome time on this trip. Our guide Trent was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and made the day fun. A highlight of our holiday.

I highly recommend Back Country Bliss Adventures. Our private Mossman Gorge adventure with river drift snorkeling tour was perfect. Will was an amazing guide, telling us wonderful stories and pointing out so many plants and animals of the area.

What a wonderful experience great value well run.

Such a fab experience, Renee & Leo were super friendly & knowledgeable. Such a chilled, relaxing morning drifting down the river. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Epic trip! Vincent and Steph were awesome tour guides, full of information and stories! Our time on the river was absolutely stunning, the river snorkelling and drifting were the days highlight. Then our afternoon in the rainforest was full of knowledge & laughs. Thanks for a great day team! 1000% recommend!

We had the most epic experience with the ladies at Back Country Bliss! Their knowledge and passion for the rainforest was extremely evident. The float certainly helped us to relax and recharge our batteries. Highly recommend 🙏❤️

Awesome tour for the whole family! Staff were super helpful and knowledgeable about the rainforest, Well organised and a lot fun. Highly recommend that if you get the chance take this tour !!

Wow! We spent the day with Artemis snorkelling and drifting down the river, then hiking through the rainforest in the afternoon. Artemis' passion and knowledge of the rainforest is incredible, and she is without a doubt the best tour guide we've had the pleasure of meeting in our time travelling QLD. Would absolutely recommend the full day tour to anyone.

Great day. Most enjoyable

This was an amazing experience for myself and my family. Our guides were very knowledgeable and passionate about the area and made the experience very special.

Back Country Bliss River Drift Snorkelling tour is one of the best tours I have ever done. Such a unique experience being surrounded by the magnificent rain forest (the world’s oldest!) in crystal-clear waters with tiny turtles. It was so peaceful and serene. The rafting part was heaps of fun to drifting down the tiny rapids was awesome. All the guides were exceptional, very knowledgeable and extremely helpful and looked after all the participants really well. Highly recommend this tour.

Loved the experience. Very relaxing. Loved the Tour Guides enthusiasm

We saw this on a travel show on TV ad it was even better than expected! Our two guides, Vincent and Leota, are both young first nations people who made the adventure fun and educational from both a conservation and cultural perspective. Our two girls loved it too 🙂

Amazing experience! Such a wonderful way to see the beautifully stunning Mossman river. Vincent and Kate were exceptional guides and catered to our every requirements. Highly recommend!!!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Adventure Day. Our guide, Corry, was knowledgeable, informative and kind. He made sure the whole group had an enjoyable time, and was safe. He was particularly good with our 9 year old boys at the river and really helped them to enjoy the experience. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful morning emerged in nature and very entertained by the awesome guides Leo and Vincent! Thanks guys!!!

The kids & I had the best morning… so good… a must do when in FNQ

We had the most amazing day today! Even though the weather was overcast, Vincent and Leota shared some great info about the rainforest, their culture and the gorgeous river. Snorkeling and floating down the river was fun, relaxing and something we will never forget. Mel and Luke (Ralph) xx

Amazing morning drifting with Kate and Erica! We had a lovely stroll through the rainforest and then snorkelled down the river even hitting some very small rapids. We ended the session with a drift down the ‘cathedral’, our favourite bit. An unforgettable experience and one we will be talking about for a very long time.

Do this once in your lifetime My wife and I loved this tour would definitely recommend for Everyone to do at least in there life the river was low but still awesome

Floating Through a Cathedral of Trees I did a float on the Mossman and a tour of the gorge in October 2023 and it was beyond anything I had hoped for (and I had some pretty high expectations). Trent and Rene were AMAZING guides, and their love for and appreciation of the rainforest was evident from the moment we met. From horticulture to biology to just moments of quiet bordering on a near-spiritual experience, these two were exemplary guides whom I cannot laud enough. My thanks to them for a beautiful experience, one which I will carry with me for the rest of my days. In addition, Joe from Oasis Transport who drove me up to Cairns was fantastic. He went above and beyond to explain the history of the Tropical North, taking detours for scenic overlooks and telling stories rich with local color. Oh, and we did that all and were still ahead of schedule! Such a phenomenal experience. Make sure to go today!

We had such a lovely time on our Daintree raft tour. Corey was a lovely tour guide! We really appreciate the comfort and fun he brought us in the van and during the tour. He was very supportive of me who is not a confident swimmer, and catered to all of us well. Thank you for a great and memorable experience! 🙂

Absolutely recommend this tour! So much fun floating down the beautiful pristine Mossman river & viewing the rainforest. Our guides Vincent & Renee were fun & very knowledgeable of the connections to Indigenous culture.

What a bloody great tour! Renee and Vincent were great hosts/guides, providing lots of insight and information on the river and local culture, plus making it a fun afternoon for all the participants. Worth doing.

We had a great time river rafting. The scenery was beautiful, water was cold and crystal clear and guides were fab. It was so relaxing floating down the stream surrounded by bird song.

My son and I loooved this tour. Something different. The tour guides were wonderful. Highly recommend

Gorgeous rainforest surroundings & crystal clear water

Above and beyond what I expected The tour was a mix of interesting nature discovery in the forest and exploring the river. Great for our family including an 11 year old and 13 year old. It’s cold but the wetsuits make it ok as soon as you get in. The tour guide was enthusiastic and entertaining which is needed when you are trying to convince some sceptical people to jump in a cold river. Just be warned though … take off any rings. I lost my wedding ring half down a small set of rapids. That ring hardly came off my finger without a struggle but the combination of cold water and friction against rocks pulled that ring right off my finger. Wasn’t very happy at all at the end of the tour about losing my ring until 3 weeks later when the tour operator found it with a metal detector and sent it back to me. Completely unexpected and well done by them. Above and beyond what I expected.

Absolutely amazing! I had a blast floating the river, exploring the gorge, learning about the culture of the KuKu Yalangi people who have long occupied the Daintree. I felt immensely enriched, enjoyed my time in a true ecological gem, and had SO MUCH FUN!

The River Float is a must do!
