Rain is part of life in the Wet Tropics and often makes the falls even more impressive. The itinerary can change with weather and water levels, and if extreme weather stops the tour you'll be offered a reschedule or credit, with refunds where Australian Consumer Law requires.
The fitness level is low. The longest walk is the 700 m sealed rainforest track each way to Josephine Falls, and if you have medical conditions or mobility needs, let us know when you book so suitability can be confirmed.
Pack swimwear, a towel, reef safe sunscreen, a hat, a refillable water bottle, a change of clothes and a warm jacket for the cooler Tablelands air.
