Silent and Sustainable Wildlife Spotting

Tour Options and Bookings

Opt for a 1-hour wildlife-spotting cruise at $30 per adult and $14 per child (ages 5-15), or enjoy a more detailed 2-hour tour for $60 per adult and $37 per child. To make a booking, you can do so via the Lodge, where pick-up from the NORTH side of the river can be arranged, avoiding the need for a car ferry.

Direct online booking is also available through the Solar Whisper website.

Wildlife Encounters

During the warmer months, the crocodiles may be less visible as they spend more time submerged. However, Solar Whisper offers complimentary return tours until a successful spotting occurs.

Enhanced Tour Experience

If you enjoy photography or detailed ecological observation, the 2-hour tour offers a small, intimate setting accommodating a maximum of 10 people, allowing for a closer connection with the Daintree River’s rich biodiversity.
