The food was marvelous with a great deal of variety featuring dishes that included local specialties. The storytelling by the aborigine was riveting and engaging. But the absolutely most wonderful part was the setting. The rainforest with your way lit by candles, the dining area lit by only candles, the silence of the rainforest except for the sounds of rainforest all around you. It was magical, we would do it again and again and everyone who goes to Northern Queensland should experience this.

This was a fantastic way to end our trip to Port Douglas. The setting was amazing, so quiet and dark, really tranquil. The Aboriginal show was very entertaining and added to the atmosphere. The food was divine!

This was a brilliant and fantastic night...gourmet food and lovely wine. The setting was just lovely. I would 100 percent recommend this trip.

Well done, creative and original event. Whoever came up with this idea was definitely thinking outside the box and it was beautifully executed. The fact these evening dinners are staged without harming the forest is an added benefit in my opinion. I could have listened to more Aboriginal stories and would have liked to have kept them there all night. Nothing short of magical.

This was a unique experience with the added bonus of meeting new people from both Australia and abroad as we dined on exotic foods.

It is a little bit expensive for me, but I still had a enjoyable night. The environment and service were good.

Excellent location, setting, and food. The night passed quickly during the meal, and at round tables of eight, there was varied company. My only negative comment would be the storytelling after the meal, which was too long. Some other form of Aborigine culture could be incorporated to vary the evening, possibly more music or dance.

Quite a spiritual experience and great food.

This delicious meal was very nicely served. It was a very good program, but the evening was shorter than it should have been because of a problem with a bus driver not knowing the way.

The bus ride from Cairns was way too long and our driver must have thought he was a race driver. Once there, we spent at least a half hour standing around in bare dirt waiting for dinner. The modest proportioned meal was served on plates which were passed around the table. By the time every course got to us, it was about empty. Complaints to staff for more food were ignored. The entertainment was well below average. The evening ended with the same road race home. If you decide to book this turkey, bring along a flashlight to see what you are eating and plenty of bug spray.
