You'll board an air-conditioned minibus at your Port Douglas accommodation or a central pickup point. The northbound route takes 30 minutes, passing working sugar cane farms and glimpses of the Daintree before reaching Mossman Gorge Visitor Centre. You have full control of how long to spend—pick either the earlier return slot (3 hours total) or the later one (roughly 4.25 hours).
