Reviews: Grand Kuranda including Skyrail and Kuranda Scenic Railway
Guest User2024-07-22
Me and my family took an army duck tour last sunday and we had a really good time. We would like to compliment your new guide Mark. He had really good and interesting comments about nature and wildlife that made the tour fun and enjoyable. We also loved other activities in Kuranda, like the Pamagirri Aboriginal experience. We learned how to throw a boomerang and we enjoyed the presentation of Aboriginal coulture. The scenic Railway had some really good views and the train to Cairns was most enjoyable. Sending love from Slovenia.

My daughter wanted to hold a koala, so we went. Even in Australia, places where you can hold one are becoming less and less common. The koala that came out posed beautifully while being held, and my family commented, "He's a true professional!" The boomerangs were amazing. I threw one myself and it came back perfectly, drawing applause. The dancers were so serious, they were panting afterward. Thank you. The amphibious vehicles were fascinating. I felt the presence of nature, from the crocodiles lazing about, to the birds bathing, to the plants that hurt for three months if you touch them. We rented a car, so we were able to relax and enjoy the day without worrying about time. Of course, you can buy tickets on-site, so it's a great way to enjoy your favorite itinerary.

We were visiting from Melbourne. After arriving at Kuranda, we were looking forward to our pre booked Butterfly Sanctuary visit. Nicole, the live in tour guide, was enthusiastic, interesting, and welcoming. Highly recommend you book and attend a tour with Nicole.
Reviews: Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation Full Day Tour
Guest User2024-07-22
Our guide was Andrew. He prepared an amazing tour for us and showed us the beauty of Daintree. We took a river cruise on Daintree river and saw some crocodiles sunbathing. We enjoyed a peaceful lunch and a refreshing swim in a Emmagen creek. We saw a lot of pure nature, that left us in awe. The ice cream from tropic fruits at the end of the tour was really delicious. The Cape Tribulation Beach was really wide and worth seeing. Sending love from Slovenia.

Reviews: All Inclusive Waterfalls and Rainforest Tour from Cairns
Guest User2024-07-10
If you are coming to CAIRNS for a holiday then this is a MUST DO Tour through WATERFALL WANDERERS Cairns Adventure Group. The road up to the falls is through a lovely forest but a small tip for those who get a bit car sick, it is very windy so prepare before hand. You will find that it is worth the climb and levels out on top. The waterfalls are FAB and it was possible to swim at all the falls we visited. If you are not a swimmer, the tour is still magical with lovely walks to the falls through the forest and many great photo opportunities. Lunch enroute was a very nice lasagne and chips in a pub with a vegetarian lasagne choice as well. A big shout out to our guide Orion who looked after us the whole trip and contributed to making this a wonderful tour.
