Unique, special experience I’ve never been river snorkelling before; this was a whole lot of fun! Wetsuits, raft and snorkel mask provided. InFormative and fun guides Rohan and Will made for a great afternoon. Saw a gorgeous little turtle about the size of my hand. Great mix of walking, snorkelling & rafting. Riding the rapids was fun. Guides were very helpful with a range of physical abilities. Highly recommended! …

Bucket List Adventure of a Lifetime This is the BEST and most eco-friendly tour group to explore the beautiful Mossman Gorge if you want a full day adventure swimming, snorkelling and hiking in the rainforest. These guys are fun and informative and provide the wetsuits and all the gear. They're professionals and guide you through the river, rainforest and hidden swimming holes. It's a brilliant day in pristine nature that you'll remember forever. The day also includes a delicious prawn and avocado and green smoothie lunch and a Welcome to Country fire ceremony and chat with an indigenous guide which was fascinating. …

We loved this so much! Our favourite tour so far, so much fun, great guides

Awesome trip down Mossman river. Some fun rapids to go over and some quiet bits to float and snorkel. We had a wonderful morning adventure 👍

Amazing experience for everyone and so glad I did it. Guides were great with everyone and caring.Unbelievable experience with floating and snorkeling. Something you will never forget.Great service being picked up and dropped at our accommodation. Nice to have hot drink and snack when you get out of the river.

Just a perfect adventurous Mossman Gorge day, thanks to Artemis & the bliss crew. From the river, lilos, snorkel, rainforest to the town, up the gorge, swimming pristine pools, local knowledge & tons of FUN! Simply cannot recommend highly enough, just BOOK, & do it!

A truly special experience. Our family were lucky enough to do a Mossman river drift tour with Kayla and Mitch. The tour was informative and interesting as well as being a unique and amazing opportunity. Out guides went out of their way to make sure our child was safe and had fun which we really appreciated. I had numerous phone interactions with Jason in the lead up to our visit over several months and on each occasion he was helpful and professional. I will daydream about this tour for a long time, it was really special, made even more so by the backcountry bliss team.

Fantastic fun Fantastic day out! Highlights - the river drift and the fab guides! Heaps of fun on a small stretch of the beautiful Mossman River floating down on rafts & snorkeling. The guided tour into Mossman Gorge was an easy walk & Rowan, our guide, a wealth of info & good humour. Well organised, nice lunch, nothing to do but enjoy!

A fun and adventurous tour It was very adventurous for us being close to 60 yr old and of medium fitness but we survived. There is always quite a current to swim with (or against) whilst snorkelling, we saw quite a few fish of various sizes and some of our group saw a snake and small turtles. Part of the tour included ‘drifting’ through small rapids, you have to be able to control your raft by paddling with your hands (like a heavy duty Lilo). I crashed my raft into a rock and it flipped over with me under it, in a deep spot, so you need to be able to swim and get back on the raft which I managed to do with out too much effort. One guide in front and one behind are there to assist if needed. I’m glad we did it and would recommend to others, but if you are older you need to be reasonably fit. The children on the tour seemed to really enjoy it like ducks to water!

Mossman River bliss! Will and Mitch were awesome guides . We spent a fun filled morning on the beautiful Mossman River, snorkeling , paddling, rafting down rapids and marvelling at the underwater life. We saw Turtles, catfish, water snake, lots of little fish and so much more. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic NQ experience Our family of 6 participated in the River Drift, half day tour, as part of our NQ holiday. Was an absolutely fantastic morning of walking, paddling, drifting and snorkelling. Absolutely no trouble for an 8, 10 and 12 year old, and quite enjoyable for our 15 year old. We loved it. The team do a fantastic job. Will, our guide, was fabulous. Highly recommend

We had a fantastic time on this tour with our 3 children (12,10 and 8) it was safe, fun and an absolutely beautiful way to see the rainforest! Definitely recommend.

Recommend everyone has this amazing, incredible experience. Absolutely amazing, go do it!!! ?✌️?

Wonderful rainforest and river drifting/snorkelling I enjoyed an afternoon of drifting down the river on a lilo with a bit of snorkelling in between. This was a really good alternative to going out to the Reef.

It was advertised as drift snorkelling, but really there is more drifting on lilos than drift snorkelling. Though not always remaining on the lilos as there were some small rapids, but it easy enough to get on again after falling off. While I was expecting more snorkelling it was still a good trip. Also, we had to carry the lilos through the rainforest, which wasn't clear on the brochure when they mentioned a walk through the rainforest.
Our guides were really good and very knowledgeable and took the safety of all the participants seriously.
The river was cold (around 20C) but the wetsuits and boots supplied were comfortable.
The only thing I think could be improved is either more information about what can be taken on the tour, or a way of managing with these items. i.e glasses. I don't see well without my glasses, and we were told not to take our glasses as they could become broken or lost on the river. This became a problem when having to watch where you are walking through the rainforest so as not to trip over vines. I initially got around this problem by putting my own prescription goggles on when walking through the rain forest, but that soon became difficult as they fogged up. This lead to issues with snorkelling because the defog had been used earlier so my mask kept fogging up when snorkelling. When the guides yelled out to avoid a sunken palm tree I couldn't see it, so ran straight into it. No problem, I just had to get off the lilo, move past the palm, get back on the lilo and continue down the river. But I did feel that I missed out on some of the beautiful scenery because I couldn't see it. I think this could be improved by allowing people to wear their glasses on the rainforest walk and then put them in a case with hook attached so that they can be attached to the lilo when on the river. I think I would also take my defog with me, to be able to reapply it as needed, especially when drifting on the calm bits of the river and looking up into the canopy above.
I also think it was overpriced, and that around $80pp would be more appropriate taking into account fuel for tranfers from Port Douglas to Mossman, having two experienced guides and the use lilos and wetsuits.
But overall, it was a good experience.

A fantastic experience from pick up to drop off. Rowan picked me up from Clifton Shopping Centre (caught the 110 bus from Cairns for $5.90) on time and was an excellent companion for the drive to Mossman. The river drifting was phenomenal. Great staff, good equipment and stunning scenery and a great way to see the rainforest in a completely new way. The water clarity was pristine and the forest was stunning. Highly recommend this experience with Back Country Bliss Adventures!

Beautiful drift snorkel down the Daintree River My sister and I had a great time drift snorkelling and it turned out to be quite the adventure. Our tour guides (sorry ladies your names now escape me ...) were fantastic. Very knowledgeable and extremely helpful when we needed it! Highly recommended for a bit of beauty and excitement!

Floating down the Daintree This is a must tour for everyone who likes a little adventure and getting close to nature. The float down the Mossman River in the Daintree Rainforest gave a unique view of this ancient forest. The snorkelling got you up close with the local fish and if lucky a platypus. The wetsuits did a good job of keeping you warm once you got them wet. The tour finished off with a hot drink and biscuits. A great morning adventure.

Loved it Did the river rafting. Had a great time doing something completely different. Won't mention that 1 of the crew bogged the car :), but even that turned into a bit of an adventure. Had a great time and would recommend this tour to any one.

Fantastic half-day drift snorkelling tour - great host, nice drive and then 15 min walk into the rainforest before spending 2 wonderful hours in the water. Full length wetsuits kept us warm and we saw lots of fish and some turtles. Well worth a try!
