Trip was booked paid for and confirmed. Then a couple of days later cancelled. ……………………………….::::.:.::
We had a fabulous day! Great pick up and drop off service. Fantastic, and fun guides and coach driver! Beautiful part of the world. Felt very confident with our safety instructions and would highly recommend this adventure when in Cairns.
Great trip with super nice guidance, certainly Lily was super as driver and guide. Was relax yet with nice gears
The tubing was a great experience and was fun. I would do this again. The professionalism of the entire crew of CAIRNS ADVENTURE GROUP was great in particular Rosie the host and Tina the bus driver on the day. Was well worth doing this.
Cheers for the love! We had a blast showing you around the tropics. Until the next adventure!
Great fun. Good attention to safety & very friendly guides. Suitable for all ages. Disappointed that one of the male guides picked up rubbish from the river only to throw it into the bush instead of taking it out.
Thank you for your review. We're delighted to hear you had a great time on the river and that you found our guides friendly, attentive, and focused on safety. We were, however, concerned to read your comment regarding the rubbish. Caring for the rainforest and waterways we operate in is very important to us, and disposing of litter in this way would not align with our environmental values or operating procedures. We will investigate this feedback with our team to better understand what occurred. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we're pleased you otherwise enjoyed the experience. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future.
Not as advertised! Oh my gosh, I read details to be a relaxing float down a river on a tube with a couple of small rapids. It felt so much more, and this could be because I am a fraidy cat, however, I did not expect multiple rapid areas and a few that were way bigger than I felt comfortable with. That being said, our tour group leader Lily from Canada and the others were fantastic. And as long as you are happy with rapids and not a relaxing drift down the river, then you will have a great time.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear the experience wasn't quite what you were expecting. While River Tubing is designed to be suitable for a wide range of ages and abilities, river conditions can vary depending on recent rainfall and water levels. This means some days feature a gentler float, while other days can include more noticeable rapids and a faster-moving river. We're pleased to hear that Lily and the rest of the team took great care of you throughout the tour. Our guides work hard to ensure guests feel safe, informed, and supported while enjoying the natural beauty of the rainforest. Thank you again for your honest feedback. It helps future guests better understand the nature of the adventure, and we appreciate you joining us on the river
Very fun and accessible adventure for just about anyone. Not as cold as I feared; recommended!
Cheers for the love! Until the next adventure!
It was a fun and fast trip down a shallow river. Do not expect a lazy river. There was a lot of paddling with your hands to keep you moving in the right direction. Some of the younger kids with shorter arms struggled with paddling and would get separated from their group. I spent a lot of my time trying to stay near my kid. The water was very nice, and it was very pretty. There were several guides that would help you along the way.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the beautiful scenery and refreshing water, and that our guides were able to assist throughout the journey. It's worth noting that the difficulty of the experience can vary depending on river conditions and water levels, which are influenced by recent rainfall. During periods of lower water flow, guests may find they need to do a little more paddling to keep moving and stay on course, particularly younger adventurers. We appreciate your comments and will be sure to pass them on to our team. Thanks again for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another Tropical North Queensland adventure soon!
It was lots of fun the guides are absolutely fantastic and so helpful. Such a beautiful location on the Mulgrave River float amongst the rainforest and crystal clear waters. It was awesome.
Cheers for the love! We had a blast showing you around the tropics. Until the next adventure!
