Tour was well planned and executed and lots of fun. Highlights were the scenic railway trip and butterfly gardens . Rainforestation park was also informative and interactive. It was a very pleasant day and tour operator was fantastic.

Our tour to Kuranda village by Tropic wings was just awesome starting from the beginning..The guides were extremely friendly and guided us in all the activities as there are a whole lots of things u need to do within 6/7 hrs...The scenic railway and Skyrail journey was splendid and marvellous and we had a very pleasant journey with Tropic wings.. Namaste from India Debraj/ Sudeshna/ Shreesh

Amazing trip. Our driver Dom was informative. Full of knowledge and humorous. The trip was fun throughout. Maybe stop at Port Douglas longer.

Excellent well organised, told when all the actives were and very informative. Good tour company. Would use them again

Long day but well schedule: train, butterfly, lunch, wild life, aborigen show, sky rail. I enjoyed the free time in between. Nice experience that I recommend.

Good day out, however the koala centre next to the butterfly sanctuary has to be paid separately to enter. The included koala centre is at the rainforest station. The skyrail was amazing!

We did the sky rail up and the gold class train back down. Was a lovely day out, loved the aboriginal experience and the rainforest army duck tour. Had waitress service on the train back. Staff were lovely really showed that they love their job. Would recommend great day out.

It was an okay but not very exciting & fun tour. Tour was on time, lunch was okay . The shows were a little bit boring. I think children may enjoy the tour more than adults.

The views from the Skyrail were phenomenal. The Railway views were hard to see unless you were directly by the window. Get the Diamond Skyrail which allows you to see the canopy through the floor and also to skip the lines that are very long for the regular Skyrail cars. In Kuranda we went to the Kuranda Koala Gardens and were able to get a photo holding a koala which was worth a trip to Australia in itself.

The scenic railway, the duck tour of the forest, cable car back down the mountain, plus Aboriginal show, didgereedoo demo, and have a go at boomerang throwing. You fit a lot into the day

High light is the Army Duck Tour, the guide Shauno is so funny, very informative, and saw some animals in a mini zoo, great scenery on cable car, and enjoy delicious lunch in a Thai food restaurant, just a bit long ride on train. Recommended!

Already reviewed the train part which was lovely…I’d been looking forward to the skyrail part as I’d booked the glass bottom gondola. We had the gondola to ourselves which was great but it stopped partway down with a walkway to view before getting in another gondola for the final journey. For this we ended up having to share with another person so I was annoyed when we got to the bottom and they asked if we wanted a photo…why would I want some unknown person in my pic? Had we been alone then yes I’d have gladly had one!

A wonderful day out, so many experiences in one package. Everything was explained multiple times during the day. Didn’t have to worry about missing anything. The train ride up was inspired when you think of the work to build the track. Loved the Kuranda village, butterfly Sanctuary, Rainforest Station- the Army Duck, Aboriginal Dancing and the boomerang throwing, animal encounters, food!! And then to top it off the Skyrail back.

Let's start with saying this is a long day and many activities packed into it. If you are looking to make the most of your day, this is your way to go. If you want it at a slower paces, have a look at the other tours they provide. The day starts with an early morning pickup. The time depends where you are on the list, but it can be pretty early if you are one of the first. There won't be a guide with you all the time. So you have to listen and know where you have to be at what time. The driver of the buss will make that pretty clear to you. You will get dropped at the Freshwater train station for the train ride to Kuranda. Along the way you will stop for a view of the Barron falls. Along the way you have some great views and you are also able to view the train itself while it winds its way to Kuranda. When you arrive at Kuranda, it is a short walk to the butterfly sanctuary. You do have a little time to have a quick look at some shops along the way, but don't lose track of time. The butterfly sanctuary allows you to have a look at some nice butterflies and offers the opportunity for some nice pictures. Next the buss will take you to the lunch location for a warm buffet lunch. Water is included, other drinks are not and need to be purchased. After lunch you will embark in a WWII 'duck' to drive around the rainforest and enter the water as well. It is just a short trip, but the explanations of the ranger are excellent. Also included is a visit to the small theater for the Pamagirri Aboriginal Experience. This includes music and dancing and gives some insight in the lives of the local people. This is followed by explanations of didgeridoo playing, spear throwing and boomerang throwing. At the last one you can have a go yourself, although it is limited to one try. The last part before returning to Cairns is a visit to the small zoo, with the typical Australian animals. Nice that it is included but it doesn't add too much. Along the way it is possible to have a picture taken with a koala (additional payment required). The bus will then take you back to the skyrail. Try to make sure you go as one of the first. Because of a ticket issue, we went last which prevented us from having time to walk around during one of the stops. We did manage to go out and see the Barron Falls again, but a ranger was making sure that we made it back on time to continue downwards towards Cairns where the bus took us back to the hotel. In all it was an action packed day. Would I do it again? Probably not as I would have liked to spend a little more time in Kuranda and visit the shops there. However it is a very good way to get a good feel about the area and the people that live here.

Be prepared that some part of this tour is very touristic. Maybe not all but certainly the Rainforestation. Can’t recommend that part. I would go for a Skyrail-ticket, then walking in the Kuranda village and end with the train back. Much cheaper and more genuine.
