Reviews
The Evening Rainforest and Glow Worm Half Day Tour in Gold Coast was a fantastic experience. In early October, we saw a stunning abundance of glow worms lighting up the night, creating a magical atmosphere. On the way to Curtis Falls, we spotted various wildlife including spiders and lizards, which added to the adventure. Our guide, Ryan, provided red torches that were just perfect for the tour, allowing us to see clearly without disturbing the glow worms. The trail itself was easy and enjoyable, suitable for all ages—there were even little kids in our group who handled it effortlessly. Ryan’s knowledge and enthusiasm stood out. He offered detailed explanations whenever we had questions about the wildlife and kept the mood light and fun throughout. His humor and great energy made the tour engaging from start to finish. Overall, this tour combines nature, wildlife, and glow worm magic with a friendly and informative guide, making it perfect for families and nature lovers alike.
We decided to join the half-day tour of blue light worms in the evening that morning. Luckily, my friend had an Australian phone number, so he was able to call the travel agency immediately to confirm that there were seats available before booking on Klook. The process was very smooth, and almost all the people in the group were from Hong Kong (including us) 🤣 The tour guide Daniel was very humorous, the chat was pleasant, and he also paid great attention to our safety during the night tour. The one we visited at night was a natural wild blue light worm, not the one in the artificial cave! So I’m very happy to see so many blue light bugs! In addition, there are also desserts and chocolates, which is very thoughtful. I captured a very beautiful starry sky, which was a perfect end to the night.
Amber is an absolute gem of a guide! She took us on an unforgettable adventure through the enchanting rainforest, navigating the picturesque sights even in the rain. With her captivating stories and in-depth knowledge of local history, every moment felt magical. What really stood out was her commitment to the environment—she consistently reminded us to respect the amazing creatures around us and encouraged us to keep the area clean by taking our trash with us. If you're on the lookout for a memorable eco tour, I wholeheartedly recommend Amber! She’s the perfect person to make your experience unforgettable!
Great experience in the rainforest and loved the quick stop for stargazing. Tour guide was amazing and the dessert spot was really cool and aesthetic.
very passionate and excellent guide. I’m not sure how much cost would it take out from the payment , if it’s not too bad , maybe can consider start the trip earlier.
Ryan is a very humorous tour guide. Although it was a bit rainy that day, when Ryan took us to see the blue glow worms, he introduced us to various trees and creatures on the mountain. Not only did we gain knowledge, but he also created a mysterious atmosphere at night. He truly is an interesting and passionate guide. On the way back, we enjoyed delicious cheesecake and chocolate milk at Manor restaurant, which left us with wonderful memories of this enlightening night tour. The best part was that on the way back, we got to sing along to everyone’s favorite songs— it was fantastic! Next time, I definitely want to bring my family here again.
The Gold Coast's Tamborine National Park offers a tranquil environment with forest trails filled with natural beauty, leaving visitors feeling refreshed and relaxed. At night, the magical glowworm display is enchanting, and one can see many different types of insects. Although the tour is short, it's fulfilling and unforgettable, making for a wonderful experience that combines nature and wonders. Additionally, the tour leader, Damon, played multiple roles, acting as both driver and guide, and his enthusiasm and energy are commendable.
The guide explained everything about the biodiversity in the rainforest really well and the glow worms looked beautiful! 🤩🤩🤩
the night walk in Mt Tambourine rainforest was amazing! guided tour in a small group.
Good trip, nice mount tamborine. alot of steps and walking. slightly over a kilometre. mainly very dark and only red lights allowed so be careful. wear long pants and top as cold. good shoes too. cheesecake and hot chocolate provided. only thing is I am not sure if it’s worth close to 100 sgd.
