reetops Adventure, Cape Tribulation. Right, so, I'm not gonna lie, the start was a bit... dodgy. Like, "are these ropes actually gonna hold me?" dodgy. I was picturing myself becoming a human piñata for the local wildlife. But then, we hit the first zipline, and suddenly, I was Tarzan, but with slightly more screaming.
Our guide? Forget about it. This bloke was basically a walking encyclopedia of rainforest trivia. He knew more about trees than a squirrel knows about nuts. We're talking history lessons, botany lectures, and zipline safety tips, all rolled into one. He was basically the Indiana Jones of foliage, but with a harness and a helmet.
And the ziplines? Easy peasy after the first one. By the end, I was practically swinging through the trees like a pro. Or at least, I thought I was. The other tourists looked slightly less terrified, so I'm taking that as a win.
Look, if you want to experience the Daintree from a bird's-eye view, and learn more about trees than you ever thought possible, this is your place. Just try to ignore the "what if" scenarios during the initial safety briefing.

We recently had an amazing experience at Treetops Adventures. Millsy, one of the staff members, was incredibly helpful and attentive, especially as we had an anxious 7 y.o girl with us. His support made the experience much more enjoyable, and we all had a lot of fun. Highly recommended.

Our guide/instructor Winter could not have been more helpful. He was absolutely amazing and very encouraging after my initial hiccup. I can't praise him enough. The safety of everyone was always foremost on his mind, and I loved his wealth of information and 'silly' jokes along the way. Personally, it was a great adrenalin rush and a good way to get out of the comfort zone.

Reasonably priced activity for self drive tourists, and a lovely, easy drive from Pt Douglas. Try to book the first session like we did (9.30) leaving the remainder of the day for a leisurely drive back to your starting point - lots to see and do. The views were beautiful and with a knowledgeable guide with some great stories (and not-so-great 'dad cringy' jokes) made the climb up somewhat pleasurable and the zip down so much fun!

It was a great day out, my partner book in an information center 2 days before. It was great experience, tour guide was lovely and very supportive. I definitely recommend it and would do it again when I come back to PD.
My best part was the scenic landing, I suggested that you put a glass of bubbly’s and cheese for us to enjoy along the way.

A group of 4 of us went on the zipline tour with Lydia. It was amazing she was an amazing tour guide and took time out to tell us about the rainforest and the trees and animals we might see and the importance of the rainforest and the reef working together. At the end of the tour she also took us round the office grounds to show us the fruit that grows as I showed an interest in the fruit that grows and trying it, this wasn’t apart of the tour she just took the time to show us at the end and it was so appreciated. We stop at a bigger platform and the view was amazing you could see right out into the sea and what topped it or we seen whales!! Lydia did such a good job with involving everyone, there was two guys on their own but everyone was talking and getting involved with each other. It was amazing and I would absolutely do it again and would recommend to anyone!

What impressed me was the Great enthusiasm presentation and knowledge by our instructor. I forgot her name, French Canadian young lady. I thought I was going to be very scared as this was the first time I did such an activity but the safety of the harnesses and guidance given to our group, my daughter and I slid off above the trees with ease. Loved it, Loved it. Bonus a nice sunny day. Will recommend to anyone going to the Daintree ???? Sue and Jacqui

This morning we had an amazing experience with Treetop Adventure Zip Lining in Cape Tribulation, and I would give it a five-star rating!
Winter, our tour guide, was great with his extensive knowledge of the rainforest made the adventure even more enjoyable. Winter's explanations about the rainforest (not jungle!) and fun facts added a whole new level of appreciation to the experience.
Furthermore, I can't praise Jess and Ted enough for their friendly hospitality. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel welcomed and ensured that we had everything we needed for a fantastic time.
Overall, the Treetop Adventure Zip Lining experience was exceptional. The combination of Winter's expertise and Jess and Ted's hospitality made it a memorable and enjoyable trip. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an adrenaline-pumping adventure in the heart of nature.

A fun, informative & beautiful trip through the Daintree Rainforest, all on ziplines! There were several ziplines throughout the forest, which was great! It made it worthwhile as we were out there ziplining through the forest for a fair amount of time =)
Our family of 5 (x2 adults & x3 kids - 12yr old & x2 8yr olds) had an amazing time!!!!
You meet at the Treetops Adventure Zipline tours hut. There are clean facilities to use before you head out if you need to. The staff help you harness/helmet up & then you head out on a 5min drive to the zipline site.
All of the staff were friendly, helpful, patient & knowledgeable. A once in a lifetime experience that you wouldn't get elsewhere. Reasonably priced. Well worth the drive from Port Douglas.
It is a highly recommended experience to anyone who is considering coming up to visit this part of Australia =) You won't be disappointed!
