Rockart, Reef and Rainforest Tour  
   

The Flight
Your flight to Cooktown takes you over two World Heritage Areas, Australia's Great Barrier Reef and Daintree National Park. This is the only place in the world where two separate World Heritage Areas exist side by side. Flying from Cairns to Cooktown you will see Port Douglas, World Heritage Daintree rainforest, Cape Tribulation and Black Mountain. On the return flight to Cairns, we fly over the famous Endeavour Reef and then track down the reef sections to Low Isles onto the Northern Beaches into Cairns. See… more in a day than most will see in a week, three tours in one.

Cooktown
Cooktown was founded as the port for the Palmer River goldfields more than a century after Captain Cook spent 48 days on the banks of the Endeavour River repairing his ship in 1770. Every June the town celebrates its status as Australia's first, if brief, European settlement at the Endeavour Festival which includes a colourful re-enactment of Cook's landing. James Cook Museum, built in 1888 as a convent school run by Irish nuns, covers Cook's voyages, Aboriginal and natural history, the gold rush days and their Chinese legacy.
Upon arriving into Cooktown, travel on a guided air-conditioned coach tour visiting such places as Cook's Landing, Grassy Hill Lookout, James Cook Museum, Cooktown Cemetery and many other historical places of interest and enjoy a sumptuous lunch.
