Port Douglas Scenic Trike Tour

1 to 4 hours

Overview

This guided scenic trike tour is a different way to see Port Douglas and its surrounds if you want more than a standard bus or walking tour. You’ll ride with a guide and take in a mix of coastal views, rainforest scenery and local background along the way. Highlights mentioned for this route include Flagstaff Hill, the Mowbray Valley and Mossman Gorge. It’s a short sightseeing option, so it suits travellers who want a memorable outing without giving up a full day. At AUD 265, it sits more in the treat-yourself category than the budget one.

Why backpackers love it

This one stands out because it’s a sightseeing tour with a bit more personality than the usual coach circuit. You cover a few scenic areas in a relatively short time, so it works well if you’re only in town briefly. The guided format keeps planning simple, and nearby public transport helps if you’re not driving. It’s not a cheap backpacker activity, but if you’re travelling as a couple or just want to splurge on something different, it’s an easy way to turn local sightseeing into the main event.

What to expect

The tour runs for roughly 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 40 minutes. You’ll head out by trike with a guide who shares local stories as you travel through the area. The listing highlights scenic viewpoints from Flagstaff Hill, a cruise through the Mowbray Valley and time spent taking in the natural setting around Mossman Gorge. Public transport is available nearby, and accommodation pick-up can be arranged according to the supplier. It’s listed as suitable for all physical fitness levels. If your plans change, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure.
