It was great to spend some time in the area with a real Australian local. We went on a number of guided trips including horse riding and jungle surfing but found that all the guides were travelers on working holidays that didn't really have an in depth knowledge of the area and were reading from scripts. Dwight was able to... More

We had a great time, turned out it was just me and my partner along with the guide Dwight. Loved surfing the kayaks and liked that he sussed us out on the waves to decide to take us around the cape as it was pretty windy that day. Very fun and knowledgable!!! Great, highly recommend it!!!!

If you would like to try some sea kayaking while at Cape Trib.we recommend you give "Paddletrek" a go. We were well taken care of and given challenges thoughtfully designed to keep things interesting but not any more confronting than we could cope with. It was a great way to get out amongst nature at cape Trib. We went on... More

We recently enjoyed a personalised morning kayak tour with Pete. My husband and I were looking for something different to do on a day trip to the Daintree that isn't on the usual tourist route since we are locals to the Cairns area. We decided to give Paddletrek a call after reading the rave reviews on Trip Advisor: the night... More

My daughter and I visited Cape Trib-fabulous! and enjoyed a wonderful morning in the water kayaking with Dwyght. The kayaking was a pleasure-Pete and Dwyght picked us up where we were staying, returning us after as well. Such nice men and intent on insuring you have a wonderful time when out kayaking. Dwyght couldn't have been nicer and more invested... More

Dwyght, our guide, took my partner and I on the sunset cruise paddle on Easter Sunday. It was relaxing, fun and insightful. We were fortunate enough to see turtles along 'turtle town' the reef surrounding Cape Tribulation beach. We saw local Sea Eagles soaring through the cloudless sky. We also caught a glimpse of a Black Bitten, an endangered coastal... More

Awesome ! My partner and I had a great time on this tour. Dwight is such a good guide, very friendly and knowledgable too. We had rain and wind during a section of this tour, and we actually enjoyed it very much ! At least the sun is not too hard on the skin and it's just a nice feeling... More

Pete our guide took care of everything and was a font of information about the natural world. He made me feel really safe and was professional in explaining everything. It was an amazing adventure - paddling out onto the ocean - like sitting in a lounge chair out in the sea with nothing but sky and sea and views of... More

We had an amazing trip with Pete. We were able to see lots of wildlife and Pete gave a totally different perspective on the rainforest. Should be number one in Cape Trib!

We had the best time and so much fun. A massive sea turtle appeared just a couple meters in front if us and we could follow it for a while when we were going around the cape. Spectacular!
