No train on this tour. Pickup is from your Cairns city accommodation or Cairns Airport at around 8:30 AM by air-conditioned minivan. At Rainforestation, ride an authentic World War II Army Duck from land to water through the Wet Tropics rainforest, then meet koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, crocodiles and the cassowary in the Koala and Wildlife Park. Spend 2 hours in Kuranda Village exploring the heritage markets, galleries and cafes. Lunch is at your own expense. Glide one way on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway above the world's oldest tropical rainforest, with views over Barron Gorge.

About Cairns & the Tropical North
Cairns is the gateway to Far North Queensland, with the Great Barrier Reef offshore, Daintree rainforest to the north and the Atherton Tablelands inland.
Cairns sits on Trinity Bay between the sea and a wall of forested ranges. The Esplanade has a public saltwater swimming lagoon and a long boardwalk beside mudflats where wading birds feed, and the Botanic Gardens hold tropical plants and a rainforest boardwalk. The city is the departure point for boats to the Great Barrier Reef, including the coral cay of Green Island and the rocky Fitzroy Island, and for flights over the reef.
