We combine two iconic attractions - the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway and Kuranda Scenic Railway - with flexibility to explore Kuranda Village independently. Journey above World Heritage Wet Tropics' rainforest on the Skyrail with panoramic views of waterfalls and dramatic landscapes. With four hours in Kuranda Village, browse the Heritage Markets, visit optional wildlife sanctuaries, enjoy the local eateries, and photograph the village. Return via the 1891 Kuranda Scenic Railway through 15 tunnels and 37 bridges whilst onboard commentary shares Queensland railway history. Your friendly driver ensures door-to-door service from Cairns City with Skyrail and Railway tickets included.

Itinéraire
Your friendly local driver collects you from your Cairns City accommodation around 8:00 AM and ensures a smooth start to your adventure with a scenic drive to Skyrail Smithfield Terminal. Note: Tour direction may be reversed (Railway first, then Skyrail) depending on optimal daily routing
Glide 7.5 kilometres above the lush canopy of the world's oldest tropical rainforest with panoramic views of waterfalls, dense greenery, and dramatic landscapes. Pass through Red Peak and Barron Falls stations to view spectacular waterfalls cascading into Barron Gorge National Park from lookout platforms.
Barron Falls from Skyrail's station lookout during your cableway journey. Most spectacular during wet season (December-April) when tropical rainfall increases water volume dramatically.
By 11:00 AM, arrive at the picturesque Kuranda Village, nestled in the heart of the rainforest. With four hours to explore at your own pace, you'll have plenty of time to browse the famous Heritage Markets (established 1915) featuring Indigenous art, local crafts, and Australian souvenirs. Visit optional popular attractions like Australian Butterfly Sanctuary, Birdworld Kuranda, and Kuranda Koala Gardens at your leisure (admission not included). Enjoy a relaxed lunch at local cafés and restaurants, discover village galleries, browse artwork and handmade goods, and take rainforest walks without feeling rushed.
Board Australia's oldest operating railway, the historic 1891 Kuranda Scenic Railway, at Kuranda Station for the spectacular descent through Barron Gorge National Park. Travel through 15 hand-carved tunnels and across 37 heritage bridges, passing Stoney Creek Falls and rainforest gorges whilst onboard commentary shares Queensland railway construction history.
Your driver collects you from Cairns Railway Station (or Skyrail Smithfield Terminal if itinerary reversed) for return to your Cairns City hotel. Please note: Arrive approximately 4:00pm-4:30pm.

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.
Top-ranked sights in Cairns & the Tropical North: Great Barrier Reef, Barron Gorge National Park, Green Island.
