Jeremy

Went on the day trip to Milla Milla falls and PARONELLA park. The itinerary was highly efficiently, lots squeezed into one day without feeling too rushed. What really made this tour so enjoyable and memorable was the tour guide, Steve! He’s a really professional tour guide, makes the best efforts for everyone to enjoy the tour and even adds in extra stops if the time permits it. Thank you for such a great day Steve!

The Day Tour to Paronella Park, Lake Barrine and Millaa Millaa Falls was absolutely fantastic! The scenery was stunning and each stop offered something unique and memorable. A special shoutout to our guide, Steve, who made the entire experience even better – he was incredibly informative, full of humour, and highly professional throughout the day. His stories and knowledge brought the places to life, and he kept us entertained from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour!

Jim, our tour guide, also as a driver, made the tour unforgettable. He was super energetic, knowledgeable and always taking good care of every guest. Even though we came from other countries, he loved to learn different cultures and shared his stories and lovely jokes with us. You can book the tour until the last midnight of the booking date (based on my experience; as long as there’s still tickets left). The 24hr online chat was really helpful and indeed solved my problem. Most importantly, it’s a real person but not an AI chat. One thing that probably didn’t meet my expectation is that, we wish we could spend more time walking through the trails (like in Lake Barrine) rather than taking quick pictures in most of the scenic spots. I would love to participate this kind of deep tour in the future.

I did the tour to paranella park and the waterfalls and it was absolutely beautiful. I personally wish I had more time at Paranella myself but the tour guide knew just the right amount of time to spend at each location and accommodate all the guests on the tour. It was spectacularly beautiful.

I really loved the Original Day Tour to Paronella Park, Lake Barrine and Millaa Millaa Falls; provided by Northern Experience Eco Tours. Steve, our bus driver and guide, provided an outstanding commentary, as well as anecdotes and humorous 'tales' to keep us entertained. This tour encompassed the breathtaking scenery and attractions of National Parks and the Atherton Tablelands; a region inland from Cairns that is full of unique features: picturesque waterfalls, dense rainforests, limestone caves and boulders. The mountains could be viewed from the bus, including Mt. Bartle Frere, Queensland's highest mountain. Yungaburra, a quaint little village, was the perfect stop for morning tea and a stroll around its flower lined streets to admire the heritage buildings. Yungaburra is also 'home' to the towering 500-year-old Curtain Fig Tree, easily accessible by boardwalk. What an amazing sight that was! Everything about the tour was fantastic, however the 'Super Star' for me was Paronella Park. The story of Paronella Park and its designer and creator, Jose Paronella, is a fascinating one which began with one man's vision. The guide at the park did an outstanding job telling Jose's story; a story I will never forget. Thank you, Northern Discovery Eco Tours and Steve for an incredible day! And THANK YOU, Northern Discovery Eco Tours, for including this marvellous award winning attraction in your tour. 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
