100% recommend this tour if you are in the area. This was an absolutely amazing day from start to finish. It was my first time in Australia so I was going in blindly, but this trip far exceeded my expectations. Just when I thought I had a new favorite spot, the next place would be even more beautiful. Josephine Falls and Lake Eacham were gorgeous and loads of fun. We had lunch by the beautiful Milla Milla Falls. Honestly, the whole thing felt like a dream.

I thoroughly enjoyed the day. Our Guide had such a great sense of humour and fun and you could tell his heart was really in the job making sure we all had the best day. I love swimming in waterfalls and photography. Each spot was just so beautiful. I definitely loved the Josephine Falls - it was super great fun sliding down the rockface in the waterfall. The Babinda Boulders were also amazing. 10/10. I thought the timing was just right - I didn't feel rushed or that we stayed too long in any one spot.

This was such an amazing experience! The scenery was beautiful and our guide knew so much about the region so we learnt alot too. All the places we saw were amazing but sliding down Josephine Falls and Swimming under Millaa Milla fallls were the highlights. Plenty of food on offer along the ride and nice to sit back and not worry about getting lost or deciding which places to see! You are in good hands and are guaranteed to enjoy the Tableland experience with Barefoot Tours.

We had so much fun with our tour guide. What a laugh! My husband and I really needed to laugh. Our Guide was also very knowledgeable about the area and sites which was good to know. It was a long day but it wasn't a rushed day. We had plenty of time at each water hole/waterfalls and the water was totally refreshing. He didn't stop working for us and always had a smile on his face. Well done barefoot tours!

Q: Are there any age restrictions for children?
A: We don’t allow kids under 8 years due to insurance reasons and for the best experience. It’s a long day for kids, and while some kids love it, it might not suit every kid. Please evaluate if the tour is suitable for your family, and the consideration of the other guests on tour.

A: We offer a full refund or credit with 48 hours’ notice of cancellation. In case of operator cancellation, you’ll also receive a full refund or credit. If you’ve booked through a Travel Agent, please refer to their terms and conditions, as they have their own policies.

Q: Is the tour cancelled if it rains?
A: No, welcome to the rainforest! Cairns’ Wet Season usually runs from December to late March. We still run tours in rainy weather. Embrace the adventure; rain is part of the Cairns experience. You’ll see more locations, and sitting in a hotel room isn’t as fun!
