A wonderful experience with the most beautiful views and fun activities! Cousin Kurt brought the energy and we simply followed. A great man who clearly loves his job and the joy it brings him.

Michael was caring, kind, inclusive. He created a wonderful experience! I especially loved the 500 years old ficus tree and the aboriginal culture session. Good and good venue location can be improved to proudly show the local delicious options. Thank you!
Reviews: All Inclusive Waterfalls and Rainforest Tour from Cairns

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.

Best Christmas getaway. Me and my husband enjoyed it so much. It was the best Christmas that I ever had with my husband.
Reviews: Grand Kuranda including Skyrail and Kuranda Scenic Railway

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.
Reviews: Cairns: Ocean Spirit Great Barrier Reef Full Day Tour

We had a wonderful snorkeling day overall. The reef was beautiful, the boat was comfortable, and most of the crew were friendly and professional. The equipment, food, and the general organisation of the trip were very good, and we truly enjoyed being out on the water. That’s why this situation was especially disappointing — because it could have been handled so easily with a little care, flexibility, and hospitality. We missed the submarine ticket pick-up at 10am — yes, that part was our mistake. We accept that. But hospitality is not about punishing guests for small mistakes. It is about helping people enjoy the experience they paid for. With 86 passengers onboard, the number of submarine seats should already be known and managed. A simple headcount, a radio call, or a quick announcement asking which guests had not yet collected their tickets would have solved the problem in minutes. This is basic service management. Even better, tickets should simply be handed out during the main p
