Description

Get ready for some proper adventure as you set off from Cairns for a day of white water rafting on the mighty Tully River. Kick back on a 90-minute road trip passing by lush sugar cane farms and rainforest creeks as you're whisked toward Tully. It's not just a drive; it's your chance to warm up for what's coming.

On arrival in Tully, you'll have time to grab a light lunch at your own pace before heading up the road to the top of Tully Gorge. Here, your river guide sorts out your helmet and life jacket, introduces you to your crew, and makes sure you know how to handle your raft. First up, a full safety briefing and a practice session on a couple of friendly rapids to get everyone on board (and in sync) before taking on the big stuff.

Once you hit the water, the fun really kicks in. Paddle your way through a wild run of grade 3 and 4 rapids, pulse racing as you 'paddle forward', 'get down' and 'hang on!' There's always time between the action for a breather and a chance to soak in the sights of the gorge - misty rainforest, rugged rocks and that clean river air.

At the take-out, get yourself dry and warm before heading to the Feluga Hotel for a well-earned feed amongst mates and a wall full of river stories. Swap tales about the day over dinner, then kick back on the coach as you're delivered safely back to your Cairns accommodation.
