Review of Byron Bay’s glow-worm, waterfall, and rainforest tour, with swimming, vegan dinner, practical tips, value, and honest drawbacks.
“Truly a magical day. There are some short hikes involved so be prepared and the road to get to the rainforest is twisty and maybe not for someone with car sickness. It was a wonderful time and well thought out trip. The waterfalls were amazing and I gather with rain last week they were at their best. The vegan dinner was very tasty and nutritious salads. Then the glow worms themselves were wonderful. The red lights provided helped to make the walk safe. Chris did a fantastic job leading and sharing his knowledge about the area.”
