Take a day trip of discovery to explore the beautiful Kuranda Village, exploring on foot, by Kuranda Scenic Rail and Skyrail Rainforest Cableway...
Your trip begins with a transfer from your accommodation to Cairns Station where you will embark on a historic journey learning about the construction of the engineering marvel that is the Kuranda Scenic Railway. Enjoy beautiful views as you take a scenic journey through the Rainforest travelling over 37 bridges and through 15 tunnels.
Once in Kuranda, you will have 2.5 hours to use as you please - take a cruise on the Barron River, discover the local arts and crafts scene, or dine at one of many sumptuous restaurants.
Later, make your way to the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway and embark on a magical journey learning about the amazing Would Heritage listed rainforest.
Along the way, you'll see the magnificent Barron George and Falls and visit the Rainforest Interpretive Centre and a beautiful rainforest boardwalk before being transferred back to your accommodation.
Thanks for the review Roxane! I am pleased you enjoyed my tour
Michael, the tour operator was fantastic, he was very informative. The small coach van was very clean. Skyrail trip is one thing every tourist should do when visiting Cairns.👍👍 Well done.
Thanks for the review Karyn. I'm pleased you enjoyed my tour.
The Scenic rail and Skyrail journeys to and from Kuranda offer a unique experience to share both modern and historic forms of transport through and over a large area of rainforest in this mountainous area of Queensland. Both journeys provide the means for excellent commentaries including historical facts and why this area is now a World Heritage rainforest. Kuranda is a charming little settlement but rather too tourist-oriented for my taste. However the bush walks were an enjoyable escape from the crowds and souvenir shops, and the butterfly sanctuary was well presented in a natural and informative manner.
Thanks for the review Jill. I'm pleased you enjoyed the tour.
Pushed for time to see town, markets, have lunch & do an optional tour. Specactular scenery on train if seated by window.
Thanks for the review. My itinerary on this tour allows 1.75 hours in Kuranda. My other tour via Skyrail up allows 2.5 hours and those needing more time just ask and I can perhaps give you some options.
Amazing experience. Our guide Micheal is very kind and helpful.
Thanks for the review Jianing. I'm pleased you enjoyed my tour.

Super nice !
Michael was on time and told us what to expect for the scenic railway. He did some recommandation where to get food during our time in the village of Kuranda. He also text us what to expect in details during the skyrail which was super nice to know! Also, when he pick us up at the end, he showed us a little of the city. He was east to reach via email, phone or text. His answer were quick. I think it was nice to have someone picking us up at the accompagnons-nous and bringing us back ‘cause it would have been hard to manage bus schedule time and all. Really enjoy my experience with Michael!
