Daintree is a location that encompasses a World Heritage Listed area. Most of that area is National Park. In the centre of the Daintree National Park, on the coast, is the Daintree Valley with Cape Tribulation to the north and Mossman and Port Douglas to the south. Inland from the coast on the Daintree River is the Daintree Village. There is no bridge over the Daintree River and a ferry is used to cross over it on the road to Cape Tribulation. Way, way upstream is the CREB track and it is reached by fording the Daintree River.
Essentially there is Daintree "north of the river" and Daintree "south of the river".

Getting there:  You get to Daintree by road. The road system to Daintree Village and Cape Tribulation is 2 lane sealed and only requires a normal 2 wheel drive vehicle. There are heaps of bus tours. To do a day trip from Cairns is ambitious, to do a day trip from Port Douglas is more leisurely but to do it justice an overnight stay is the best way to go.
