The rain forests of the Daintree region are one of my favourite areas of all the places we've been to. The trip to Cape Tribulation crosses the Daintree River via a ferry and then winds slowly and steeply through the forests. The drive is beautiful. We stayed one night in one of the two camping grounds that allowed dogs, then moved to the other one for the second night. Neither were particularly good, except for the exceptional surroundings. Unfortunately, it rained during our visit - I guess we are in a rain forest after all. But it was disappointing not to enjoy the beaches there.
