Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.
*Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.

    Amazing tour. Incredible value. A must-do!
    This tour was one of the highlights of my Australia trip. Michael was an excellent host, organized, punctual, knowledgeable and efficient. I hadn't originally signed up for the Skyrail portion but Michael suggested I add it in and I'm so glad I did, it was amazing. I've been traveling in Australia for 6 weeks and taken a number of tours. This was the absolute best for value and well worth it. I highly recommend it and Michael is who you want as your guide.

    Great shuttle tour!
    Michael was a great guide, was very friendly and had great knowledge of the area and its history. If looking for a tour of Karanda definitely book the shuttle tour with Michael. Very quick and excellent communication about bus pickups, tickets and times. Would do this again.

    Excellent day out, plenty to see and do and not rushed
    A full day out taken at a fairly relaxed pace, great rides by train up and cable car down giving very different views of the forest. Other activities at the rainforest park and a simple but filling lunch.

    Easy way to book 3 days of activity
    Booked this 3 Day package because it seemed easier than doing 3 separate bookings. The GBR experience was wonderful. Even with the rough weather, we enjoyed our time out there. While we saw some beautiful sights and had an excellent lunch on the Daintree Tour, our small group tour exceeded the stated 14 people and the extra pick up and drop offs (as well as time needed to herd 21 people about) made for a less than perfect experience. The train/sky rail to and from Kuranda are breathtaking. However, many of the food purveyors and shops were closed because it was a Monday (?) not sure if this is normal for that time of year or a post-covid fall out.

    Loved the skyrail.
    We purchased tickets for the scenic train up to Kuranda and the gondola back. The train up was disappointing, but absolutely loved the skyrail back. The views are amazing.

    A day in the hills
    A wonderful trip up into the mountains. It was like a step back in history. The views were fantastic and the train ride was very smooth. The markets up in the township were just so different. Lots of fun

    Skyrail - a Must - Views are amazing.
    We went up on the Skyrail – Altogether this was a great day trip, however quite expensive if you have a family.
    We thought the Skyrail was excellent, travelling through and over some great scenery and saw what they say is the world’s oldest rainforest - overall this ride was value for money.

    Wonderful "hands-on" experience!
    Must see! This was the final experience of our Australian trip and it was so worth it! You can actually interact with the kangaroos and get your photo with koalas. The indigenous experience was, again, very hands on. "Running water" was our favorite. He is very intelligent and committed to preserving his culture. My son and I enjoyed our conversation with him. We will definitely visit again when we are in Cairns. đŸ¤©

    Worth a Visit
    Great place. Not huge but doesn't need to be. Hugged a koala and fed some roos! Lots of different animals to see so I'd recommend a visit.
    Birds and butterflies also worth a visit. Combine it with the train ride if you have time.

    Absolutely The Best!
    Right from the start we had a great experience! As good as the Harbour lunch cruise was it only got better and better! Had a wonderful day at the Great Barrier Reef with Reef Experience-great knowledgeable helpful crew, good food, and awesome snorkeling. Our next full day tour was with Mick from Discovery Tours -words are not enough to describe the fabulous day we experienced! Thank you Mick for all the local history and special moments we shared! Onto Kuranda aboard the Scenic Railway and Skyrail adventure!

    5 Night Trip to Cairns
    When my mom and I booked this tour we were thinking it would be a nice simple trip tour package that hits the main attractions, since the tour package was extremely affordable. However, every day our tours exceeded our expectations! The hotel they chose for us was in a great location and was very nice. Everything went smoothly, we had no issues whatsoever. I am so happy se booked through this tour company! I would highly recommend them!!!
