Experience the contrast of the regions oldest and most unique picturesque railway and the invisible technology of the worlds most beautiful cableway in one day. Enjoy your day knowing we have taken care of all the details.
The tour commences upon collection from your hotel and then you are transferred to Freshwater Station. Here you will meet your hostess for the day who will run through the days schedule.
Once aboard the train, sit back and enjoy the spectacular views as you journey through 15 hand cut tunnels and past spectacular waterfalls on your way to Kuranda. Once at the quaint village town of Kuranda, you have 1 and 1/2 hours' free time to do some of your own exploring; check out the local markets (Heritage Markets 7 days a week).
After exploring the town, the hostess will be waiting for you at Skyrail with your tickets for the gondola. Once aboard you will be amazed as you glide silently above the rainforest canopy on the worlds most beautiful rainforest experience.
There are two stations en route where you can alight and enjoy a walk through the rainforest to spectacular lookouts and views or visit the CSIRO Interpretive Centre at Barron Falls Station to discover more about the special plants and animals that inhabit this unique environment. Our Skyrail journey may end at Caravonica Lakes but not the fun.
A short distance from the Skyrail Terminal is the Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park and first stop is the extravagant buffet lunch. Afterwards you have ample time to explore all the attractions of Tjapukai - movie theatres, stage shows, craft demonstrations, the Aboriginal village and of course, the famous Tjapukai Dance Troupe.
Your hostess will meet you at the entrance at 4.40pm to say goodbye as you board your coach for the return to your hotel - the end of a day that you will never forget.
Enjoy all that Kuranda has to offer on this al inclusive tour
