All three days were wonderful! Each tour was very accommodating and had plenty of food, time, and knowledge. I’d recommend if you want to hit all of the big things in Cairns without having to book through multiple companies!

If you only have 3 days in Cairns, this is the trip for you! It’s worth the money and more! My trip started with off with Discovery Tour with Lawerence to Mossman Gorge, Daintree Rainforest, and Cape Tribulation. Lawerence was an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable about the Cairns’ history and of the plants we saw. He took good care of us. My trip to the Great Barrier Reef had a rough start with miscommunication but once that cleared up, it was smooth sailing. The crew on the Reef Experience was great. They really took great care of us and made sure safety was their priority. If you are able, make sure to join Megan in her biologist tour. My trip on the Skyrail and train was great! I had enough time in between to visit all three Kuranda Koala Gardens, Butterfly Garden, and Birdworld.

Our tour guide for the Daintree was amazing 'Jim? James' - he made the trip. He is a specialist in Dad jokes. The Reef Experience Crew were professional, fun, communicated super well and were a joy. We didn't even snorkel due to illness, but still had a wonderful time. The Gondola ride is a must. Everyone should do it. Very happy with the whole 3 day tour and would recommend.

There was only one day of Kuranda Rainforest in the three days. There was no advance notice. The pick-up was not at the hotel at 7am as stated in the booking pdf file, but at the meeting point at 10:40am. I waited for more than an hour until 8am. I really didn't want to wait any longer, so I called and found out about this change. This is not good, and I should have been informed in advance. The rest was good.

Aged 78 I snorkelling for the first time on Great Barrier Reef. The crew are brilliant as would not have done it on my own. The rainforest, train and cable car gave us an unforgettable experience.

Overall it was pretty good. I wish we had bit more of an itinerary of what the day was going to look like and when things would happen to make planning of the day easier ( we didn’t know what time we would be done for the day so couldn’t make dinner plans etc.). I wish we had more free time snorkelling as it felt very rushed and like I didn’t really have much time between having to be close by for my scuba dive, have lunch and wait for the glass bottom boat. Some of the staff were super helpful whilst some didn’t seem to know what they were doing. The Daintree day could’ve been shorter or had a different mode of transport (within reason of course), it felt like a lot of travel for not much in return, especially when similar things were to be seen in Kuranda. In contrast I wish Kuranda was a little longer even if only an hour max. Whilst it was still enjoyable it felt like we had to be go go go and we only just made the bus back in time by pure chance as it wasn’t super clear how much time we had to get out and explore on the sky rail.

Booked this 3 Day package because it seemed easier than doing 3 separate bookings. The GBR experience was wonderful. Even with the rough weather, we enjoyed our time out there. While we saw some beautiful sights and had an excellent lunch on the Daintree Tour, our small group tour exceeded the stated 14 people and the extra pick up and drop offs (as well as time needed to herd 21 people about) made for a less than perfect experience. The train/sky rail to and from Kuranda are breathtaking. However, many of the food purveyors and shops were closed because it was a Monday (?) not sure if this is normal for that time of year or a post-covid fall out.

About the trips: The most wonderful experience in Cairns. I spent just three days there and I wanted to explore as much as possible, I couldn't have chosen a better option than these 3 tours. Everyday was really well organized, I was picked up near my hotel, the pick up locations were easy to find. The first day in the reef was incredible, It was my first time doing scuba diving and the crew were very well prepared, the lunch in the boat was delicious and finally I got a professional picture (I purchased on the boat) as a memory. The second day couldn't be better, Britt was sharing with us all the history about the daintree forest, we visited so many places, lookout points. We ate lunch in a beautiful place surrounded by the forest and the chef also shared with us a history of the tropical fruits we were eating that day. And the last day, traveling by train crossing bridges and catching waterfalls and taking the skyrail over the rainforest completed the most rewarding experience I've ever had. About customer service and calling by phone: The only bad experience I had was calling the last company (railway and skyrail), the person who answered the phone was impolite and she didn't share all the information I needed, and it was difficult to understand what she was saying, I requested details by email and I called multiple times trying to get the information. Considering that many tourists come to the tour, people come from different parts of the world, and sometimes the language might be a challenge; the first point of contact should be a patient person able to communicate all the details that tourists request and also we all reserve a respectful service.

All 3 days were wonderful. The boat for snorkeling was not very crowded, they allowed us to snorkel for a long time and we could go out guide far from the boat. The lunch was very good. Our driver for the Daintree rainforest, Steve, was excellent. He gave us lots of information and was fun to listen to. We never felt rushed on a group tour. The train and skyrail were breathtaking.

This is an awesome, action packed three days in Cairns. Our favorite part was the Daintree Rainforest Tour. It was so much more than just Daintree. Our guide, Steve made the very long day super enjoyable. Make sure you bring motion sickness pills for the great barrier reef tour, and lots of sunscreen. All of the meals provided were hearty and tasty. You could not ask for a better way to be introduced to Cairns. Cannot recommend enough. 11 stars!
