This was a shore excursion. Enjoyed the sky train , Kuranda forest , Butterfly. You get to see alot on a shore excursion day. Well organized. Lunch on our own in Kuranda. The big highlight is actually the UNESCO rainforest. This sky train you can see how immense and how deep the rainforest is. Several waterfalls. Make sure you bring a hat and bring your sunscreen. At the top of the sky train you could see the port and the ocean. Beautiful!

We had a great trip to Kuranda with Brett's Tours! It was our last day in Cairns and we were desperate to do the train and skyrail however they wouldn't allow us to leave our baggage at the train station so we thought we may have to miss out. Brett and his team stepped up to help us out stored our bags for us and sorted the whole trip out. We can't thank you enough and we had such a good time on our last tour before heading back to the UK.

We loved the sky rail and enjoyed our short walk around the rainforest. Then we headed over to Kuranda Village. We had originally intended to go to Koala Gardens but we arrived late and we missed our reservation time. That can happen so we just strolled around the village instead. It was nice but not what I expected. I thought it would be a lot of homemade goods but it was a lot of shops and food to go places. Then we went on the train ride which was very cool, through the rainforest. It was very informative but also very long.

Brett was really friendly, only a small group which was just lovely. It was disappointing that people are allowed to smoke on the cable car walk, markets and lunch were great,and the stop off at the local pub broke up the trip

Pick up from local hotel bang on time, great, informative, very funny guide. It’s a long day but worth it. The railway is a very long, old train and passes waterfalls and other very scenic route. Each carriage has a toilet.

Amazing beauty and scenery. Learned quite a bit about the area train ride was fun, but sky rail beyond words. Was able to see the entire Kuranda area for miles. Brett.well suited for dealing with all types of people. Highly recommend.
