Description

Set off from Cairns and dive into a real Queensland day out with the Kuranda Scenic Rail and Skyrail Rainforest Cableway. Your adventure kicks off when a professional driver picks you up for a smooth ride to Freshwater Station, where you'll get your Kuranda Boarding Pass plus a full run down of your day's itinerary and all the tickets you need.

At 9.50am, jump aboard the iconic Kuranda Scenic Rail. Wind your way past lush rainforest, carve through historic tunnels and soak up magic views over Cairns and tumbling waterfalls. There's great commentary along the way so you won't miss a thing.

Arriving in Kuranda, there's plenty of time to wander the village, grab a bite, check out the daily Heritage Markets or use your discount vouchers for a cheeky look at local attractions. The pace is yours; take it easy or pack in as much as you like.

At 3.45pm, your Skyrail Rainforest Cableway trip begins. Glide over the rainforest canopy, jump off at two stations to stretch your legs on boardwalks and take in epic lookouts, then finish at Smithfield Terminal where your transfer home is sorted. Too easy.
