  Have been to Kuranda a couple of times by train and thoroughly enjoyed it both up and back but hadn’t experienced the Skyrail. Decided to try up and back and was truly impressed by the efficiency of the process and particularly the staff. They were all very friendly and helpful with any queries. The operation ran smoothly and noted a lot of overseas visitors and was proud to see an Australian Tourist Venue operating at a very high standard. Well done!

• Not the greatest trip when it’s hot.

  The Skyrail had beautiful views. The train was awful. The train cars have no fans and on a hot day with high humidity were very uncomfortable. Everyone in our car couldn’t wait to get off as soon as possible. The village at the end was a pure tourist trap. Would not go back.

  Very informative and the staff/s assured me that the gondola ride is safe and not scary That I should look back and not forward.

  The best day up in the amazing gondolas to Kurrandah, prices for souvenirs and drinks food are way above where they should be and the train back is special. One note the email stated our experience started at 10am but then an sms said 10.40 then the bus was late so without a mention sms to say don’t sit there from 10am when it was 10.40. Just a little housekeeping I think.

  It was a fabulous ride. Very well organised. Very safe. Suited people with lesser abilities. Nice and slow embark and disembark. We wish we were more at the ready with our cameras as we saw two bright blue Ulysses butterflies flying just above the canopy. The stops at the stations were well worth the little walk and look. The guides were very informative. The ride was smooth and full of wow moments. Virtually no queues. We would have loved to have gone back down and up again. We took the train back which was excellent too. However, another ride on the cable car would have been good. Well worth the money considering the huge investment to make it happen. Thoroughly recommend it

• Must do in Cairns

  This was amazing. Having done it before 25 yrs ago I was back with family this time and just as good. The views are amazing. The train back is very relaxing too. Kuranda has so many little shops and restaurants and things like BirdWorld which is a definite must if you’re a bird lover.

• Prompt and efficient. Great day out

  Good day out worth the money spent . If U r travelling solo it's a breeze and you don't feel isolated. Plenty of others travelling solo

  The day was perfect from pick up to drop off. Driver had some great knowledge of the area we were driving through as well as what to expect on our tour. Skyrail is such a great experience and the views stunning. Kuranda itself was a cute town and worth a wander through with all it has to offer. The Scenic rail ride down was just as spectacular with being told how it came to be just amazing. Thank you.

  The train ride back is long. Skip it and take the Skyrail back down. Loved the Skyrail. The town is touristy but we enjoyed BirdWorld. The butterflies were a bit underwhelming. Because we were there at “winter” the shops close down at 3:00. Plan accordingly

• Great views easy day!!

  This tour was a great way to spend the day! The views are stunning!! Very easy to navigate the stops. Of you would like to spend more time shopping, be aware that stopping along the way does cut into time in Kuranda. The town was full of great shops!! We visited the bird and butterfly sanctuary…which were both really neat. So much to do, I wish we had more time to spend in town. The train ride was a nice was to relax after walking all day.
