  The Kuranda rail trip up and the Skyrail down where awesome trip and views. The Rainforeststation / Pamagirri Aboriginal experience didn't live up to its name , whether it was because we where Queenslanders & it was our third look at rainforest on this trip (The package was great ) Duck ride worth it . But i will applaud the Aboriginal experience as they seem to have a couple of inexperienced dancers and the drive to perform was not there as COVID culled the crowds of hundreds and our crowd was twenty .

  The sky rail and scenic railway were worth doing. Lunch was great. The rain forestation was worth doing as well as seeing the Aboriginal show and dancing spear throwing

  What a wonderful experience. Loved our tour. Tropical Wings coach was awesome. Plenty of space, even space for a pram. A great service. Wonderful tour for anyone with small kids. Tropical Wings staff were friendly and professional. Everything went smoothly. All the tickets and passes were sorted by staff. Great service.

  Great day with magnificent scenery and lovely people. Had some interesting information forthcoming a lot of things we didn't know. The Rainforestation tour is a must do, Chris our Duck driver was a fountain of knowledge and the Pamigirri dance was fabulous and a lot of fun

  A great experience with very friendly staff. Loved the train, aboriginal experience at Rainforestation and the SkyRail, the markets in Kuranda were a bit disappointing, the usual mass-produced items which seem to be found at most markets, not much locally made items.

  I was exhausted after 22 hours of travel to make it to Cairns. I almost decided to skip this full day trip but I am so happy I didn't. Booking was easy, reconfirmation was simple, Adrian the tour guide and driver was outstanding. He made everyone feel like they were an old friend. I was really cool to ride on an old train and travel through the forests to the top of a mountain. Great views all around. Once in Kuranda, the village is filled with things to do. Hold a koala (they only work 30 minutes per day-3 days a week so they aren't being handled too much). The aboriginal performance is really cool to see. Skyrail is terrifying but so much fun. Don't skip this day trip! Note: no air conditioning on the train so grab a tour pamphlet at the station as it can be used as a manual fan. Bring your reusable water bottle since they have water on board. Adrian the tour guide and shuttle driver, Reese on the duck boat, along with Lance and Winnie as our walking guides were all really phenomenal.

  Great tour but too many things to see and do in one day. Also did not expect to have to use a shuttle bus to go to different places instead of an assigned bus and tour guide. Did not like riding shuttle bus with people standing

  Despite how hot it was (February 2020), we had an amazing time! Everything was so well planned, and had an itinerary to go with it. The bus driver was so helpful and provided instructions on how everything would work. We paid for the butterfly exhibit separately and we were glad we went to it, so we probably should have bought the package that included that. Not sure if it is always like this, but we had a smaller groups so all the shows, and tours felt more like private tours which was great. Staff was so friendly. BBQ lunch was great.

  If you enjoy scenery and animals this was a perfect combination. We were picked up at our hotel in Cairns then taken to Freshwater Station. The train ride takes about an hour and a half to Karunda Village with lots of opportunities for scenic photos. At Karunda Village there are many shops and places to eat but the highlight (for us) was the Koala Gardens where you actually get to hold a koala. It is an additional cost but the pictures you can take with your own camera are better than anything you can get at a zoo. The pics I posted are with an iPhone 11pro. There are also wallabies and kangaroos hopping around that can be touched. From Karunda you are taken a short distance to Rainforest Station for a buffet lunch which had lots of options for all types of eaters and an abundance of fresh fruit. There is a koala “experience” here that is a picture with a koala on a tree limb that was only 15$ but not like the actual hold you do in Karunda although worth the time. We did army duck tour which also gives interesting information on Australia rainforest plant life, saw aboriginal dancing, actually throw a returning boomerang and shown how to throw a spear and play a didgeridoo . We bought boomerangs here because they authentic and wood actually from the rainforest. After this we were taken back to the station for the Skyrail back down the mountain. A storm had come through while we were at Rainforestation so the weather was very pleasant. It is extremely high up so if you have a fear of heights opt for the train down
