Pete Baxendell, owner and accredited guide of Daintree Specialised Tours was born in East Africa and spent his youth in the bush. From earliest childhood, he learned to live in harmony with nature. He graduated as a Forest Officer, where one of his primary responsibilities was tracking illegal bands of poachers decimating the region's wild animals. He subsequently aided the Kenya security forces with his tracking abilities.

		For a time, Pete worked as a professional guide in the East-African Safari industry, followed by successful management of extensive plantations in both Tanzania and Papua New Guinea. This international background has allowed him to excel as an elite Tour Guide and Operator, creating a unique niche in Tropical North Queensland. Over the last decade, since moving to Australia, Pete's interest in nature and his passion for bush medicines and foods continues to expand. Pete and his wife, Trish, made it their goal to offer their guests, (big and small), an adventurous, educational and fun experience. Small groups and personalised service guarantees success. Most of the guests comprise of repeat and referred visitors, as exemplified on the Testimonial pages.
