5.00One of the best, if not THE best, day tours I have ever been on. And that’s with a chunk in the middle that wasn’t necessary and a dinner that was pretty grim. The train, animals and canopy gondola are so amazing that they more than compensated for the rubbery steak and the dull padding.
Great day in Kuranda

5.00The tour is good as it has scenic train ride with a stop, skyrail with 2 good stops for different view of the Barron Falls and breathtaking rainforest canopy. The duck tour, cultural and wildlife activities in the Rainforestation centre and the butterflies sanctuary are informative while providing good fun and the lunch is decent. The only down side is it is DIY with no tour guide, though it is pretty easy to navigate with the briefing and handout and transport is seamless.
Awesome experience

5.00This was a full on day but really enjoyable. The train ride was lovely and we really enjoyed the ride into the rainforest on the army duck. The guides were very knowledgeable and the day was very well planned out. It was good to learn about the indigenous peoples history and the information about the rainforest. The sky ride was great- even the rain didn’t spoil it
Spend a day blown away by Mother Nature and in touch with the rain forest and Australia’s animals and magnificent nature

5.00A day with something for everyone. Train ride thru the rainforest. Spectacular views and waterfalls! An incredible rainforest preserve featuring the ability to hold koalas, pet kangaroos, experience indigenous culture, and spend the day in nature. THEN ride the sky rail high atop the rain forest. The day kept getting better and better at each turn. It was a day well spent and one we will treasure always.
Fun day out in NZ

5.00We really enjoyed our day visiting this area. We took the Skyrail up to the town on Kuranda and then the scenic train ride back. Plan to spend time in the town shopping and having lunch. The antique train is awesome!

5.00The views from the sky rail were breath taking. And the short nature walk and falls overlook were well worth the time.
It was a great experience...

4.00It was a great experience but we were a little disappointed not being able to ride the train, but understood why
Must book trip.

5.00The most incredible day. The tour was well organised, structured and managed from the off. Staff were so friendly. Materials provided were excellent. The train and skyrail were breath taking. The wildlife park is a must see. It’s a must book for a trip to cairns.
