The rainforest is spectacular. Totally worth the effort to get there. We stayed 3 nights and had plenty to do. Words cannot describe it’s beauty.

If you're driving yourself and prefer not to take a bus tour, purchase ($15) the self drive audio tour available on flash drive from Tourist Information office.

Pretty day drive

It’s ancient, but I was honestly more impressed by the rainforest along the Great Ocean Rd near Melbourne. Maybe zip lining or doing the only long hike would have helped make this a more interesting visit.
