Sensitive tourism and magical experience. - Can highly recommend the Hinterland Magic and Glow worm experience with Chris the very well informed local guide. My first time in Australia from the UK and first time in a rain Forest . The sensitivity to the First Nations culture and the land was admirable and sets an example of how tourism can be conducted without leaving a trail of damage. Thanks Chris.

No words! - Just have no words for this tour! The waterfall stop was breath taking and the fireflies and glow worms were next level! Just in awe of what we experienced. If seeing such beauty doesn't make you want to rise up for our environment, I don't know what to say! Highly recommend this tour. Chris was a fabulous host and his passion and knowledge for the environment and his local patch was fantastic. Do yourself a favour and go along. I have seen lots of glow worm sites, but this natural area was next level. I can still see the fireflies and glow worms when I close my eyes and I am still smiling>

Wholesome and sacred - This is by far one of the most wholesome and sacred tours I have been on. And I am a real nature lover and go on many! The spots we saw were beautiful and unique. It was also so beautiful to do part of the hiking through the rainforest after dark and hear it come even more alive, including seeing glow worms and fire flies. Christiano from Rise Up Conscious tours is extremely knowledgeable about the flora, fauna and history but he’s also so passionate about our connection with nature. Everything he shared resonated so deeply. We need more people like him to raise the consciousness of our humanity. The cherry on top was listening to Christiano playing his flute for us while surrounded by glow-worms and all the beautiful sounds of the rainforest at night. If there’s only one tour you take whilst in Byron - make it this one, you want regret it! 😊 Thank you Christiano. M
