Travel Specialist

I'm here to tailor-make your perfect Cairns holiday. Give me a call and I'll use my expertise to create your personalised experience.

Embark on an unforgettable half-day adventure, ascending to the mountain village of Kuranda aboard the award-winning Skyrail Rainforest Cableway. Glide silently over the canopy of the World Heritage-listed Wet Tropics, enjoying a breathtaking bird's-eye perspective of the ancient rainforest. Descend at mid-station boardwalks to immerse yourself in the lush environment before arriving in Kuranda.

For your return journey, descend on the historic Kuranda Scenic Railway, a magnificent feat of 19th-century engineering. Travel through hand-carved tunnels and past dramatic waterfalls as the train winds its way down the steep slopes of the Macalister Range, offering stunning, ever-changing vistas of the coastline below. This perfect combination of sky and rail provides two contrasting, spectacular ways to experience one of Australia's most beautiful natural landscapes.
