The Skyrail and the town of Kuranda were amazing. Train ride back was also beautiful and highly recommended.

Annette_R

It was a spectacular tour. Loved the skyrail as well as the scenic rail. Views are unforegettable. Highly recommend the Koala gardens in Kuranda. I got a great Koala foto there (book in advance!). Even without the foto the Koalas there are most charming. The shops in the village are worth a stroll. Prices are cheaper than down at the coast. Book very early! The train is the bottleneck and it sells out rapidly. Best book one year in advance.

Rachael K

A breathtakingly beautiful trip through the rainforest! We loved the history we learned about the train and railway. So interesting and amazing! Would highly recommend!

Marine_B

Staff were great, view from Skyrail was amazing, and the fact that you can stop at a couple of places on your way to Kuranda is a definite plus. Everything was well organised and ran smoothly. The train was cute and the commentary interesting, but unless you have a window seat, you will not see much of the amazing scenery, which is a great shame.
