It’s a very special way to see the magnificent rainforest & waterfalls; and it provides an appreciation for the engineering wonder that resulted in the construction of the Sky Rail and the train track between Cairns & Kurrumba

Wonderful day. I enjoyed the Skyrail up and Gold Class Train down. Worth the extra money. Kuranda was fun to explore.

If you travel from Kuranda to Cairns, get a seat on the left side of the train. That's where the views are.

Our tour guide arrived 40 minutes late to pick us up from the designated hotel. Other tour operators told us “they’re always late”.

Once the ticketing confusion was sorted out, it was a terrific experience. The staff through out the whole day were wonderful, friendly and helpful. The fact that it rained for most of the day did not deter from the breathtaking scenery.
