This was a great day out and exceeded all of my expectations. So much variety, colour and interest. The Skyrail is an absolute must!

We had the time of our lives. My daughter and I felt that everything was well planned, the time well spent, the information great and the views stupendous!

A great rail trip! We got a closer look at the forest through the sky rail. We loved the duck tour and the aboriginal dancing! What a great day! I can't believe we packed in so much. I highly recommend it to anyone.

This was very well organised, informative and entertaining. It's definitely a must-do, on a par with the Great Barrier Reef.

One of the highlights of our trip to Australia and New Zealand. You absolutely must take the Skyrail down from the top. Really beautiful views.

One of the most beautiful places on earth, the Kuranda Rainforest is something everyone should visit. Even with the shortened train ride, the trip was fantastic, visiting with the koalas, roos and wombats was amazing, and the Skyrail should not be missed.

Thoroughly enjoyed it though it was a pity the rail bit didn't happen as there were problems with the track. That would have made it perfect.

Train wasn't running but it didn't detract from trip. Well organised. Only comment looking for the number of different coaches we took could be confusing.

Everything about this trip was first class. The organisation of it was superb and the trip itself lived up to all our expectations and more. Definitely recommend it.

The Kuranda Rail ride was a wonderful, the highlight to our trip. The scenery was fantastic. The visit to the wildlife refuge was especially nice, having a picture with a Koala is worth the price alone.

The Kuranda rail trip and sky rail were the highlights of the trip, the views are spectacular. The rainforest station is very interesting and luch was really good. The only down side was the amount of time to explore Kuranda, but over all very enjoyable.

They have this trip organized like clockwork. You board the train at the charming train station. The train journey is like stepping back in time and is quite picturesque. You arrive in Kuranda, a cute little town. We only had about 50 minutes there -- could have done with about 2 hours to enjoy it fully. It has tons of quality gift stores and cafes and great big banyan trees. We were then whisked off to the animal park, where we saw crocodiles, koalas, wallabies, etc. The lunch was great, buffet-style, where we enjoyed talking with other travelers. After lunch, we had the duck tour, which detailed life in the rain forest. We went back via the Skyrail over the lush rain forest, which was nice. Our only complaint was the entire day we felt we were herded like cattle from one thing to the next -- a little rushed, but well organized.

Great package of tours train, duck boat, skyrail. Wonderful.

It was all very nice, but doing it all in one day was a bit rushing it. Unfortunately, we did not have time enough to take a longer tour. The people were all wonderful.
