Daintree Rainforest Immersions

Located adjacent to the Daintree Rainforest, Silky Oaks Lodge is an ideal base from which to explore the ancient forest via specialty guided tours on foot, by boat or four-wheel drive safari. Silky Oaks Lodge works with premium local operators to offer these special adventures.

Full day tours of the Daintree and surrounds offer an in-depth or special interest experience of the region’s landscape, its wildlife and its people, while half day and shorter tours offer a chance to explore special interests in the Daintree region, and may be seamlessly worked into a complementary itinerary of signature experiences.

There's the opportunity to venture to Cape Tribulation and soak up the panoramic views from Alexandra Lookout. Walk along picture-perfect Emmagen Beach and board a river cruise to explore the waterways, taking an opportunity to spot wildlife and estuarine crocodiles. Take a cruise along the Daintree River with interpretive commentary providing insights into the river, it’s residents and many ecosystems.
