DAY 3 Kuranda Scenic Railway, Rainforest Tour, Skyrail Cableway

The charming tropical village of Kuranda is set in the World Heritage Listed lush emerald Wet Tropics Rainforest. It is famous for its bohemian atmosphere, vibrant markets, cafes, galleries, shops and butterfly sanctuary. The surrounding Barron Gorge National Park features a thriving and ancient rainforest jungle, Barron River and breathtaking Barron Gorge with its cascading, thundering waterfall.
  
Your friendly driver will pick you up in the comfortable air-conditioned luxury coach before sharing experiences, fascinating facts and enchanting stories in the onboard full commentary throughout the day. Journey up on to Kuranda on the historic Scenic Railway through the tropical rainforest jungle, over steep ravines and gorges and directly past picturesque waterfalls. Experience an up-close tour of the ancient rainforest and river system on-board an amphibious duck. Explore Kuranda the village in the rainforest. Travel back down, gliding just above the rainforest canopy and gorges in a Skyrail Rainforest Cableway gondola.

This famous Kuranda Scenic Railway is a remarkable journey providing unsurpassed views of thick rainforest, steep ravines, picturesque waterfalls and gorges en route to Kuranda in the Atherton Tablelands. Construction started in 1882 and it is considered an engineering feat of tremendous magnitude. Hundreds of men built the 15 handmade tunnels and 37 bridges that stand as a monument to the pioneers of tropical North Queensland. Rising from sea level to 328m, the nearly 2 hour journey from Cairns to Kuranda passes through World Heritage protected tropical rainforest, awesome Barron Gorge National Park, Barron River and Stoney Creek. Upon reaching the village of Kuranda a rich assortment of fascinating touring and unique shopping experiences awaits you. Explore the depths of the rainforest using the most appropriate transport - an amphibious World War II Army Duck with 6 wheel drive for the forest floor and a propeller and rudder for cruising the waterways. The rainforest is very ancient and complex, with some primitive plants like tree ferns dating back over 150 million years. On our unforgettable 45 minute rainforest tour, you will see and learn about massive butterflies, ferns, orchids, strangler figs, stinging trees, azure coloured kingfisher and a host of other plants, animals and reptiles. After splashing into the waterway with propeller engaged, your Army Duck cruises up to the water's edge whilst turtles, fish and eels swim up close (look out for water dragons and pythons). Today we also visit a tropical fruit orchard growing more than 60 different types of delicious tropical fruits. Spend time at your leisure wandering through the picturesque forest village with its bohemian atmosphere, cafes and famous markets featuring impressive local arts and crafts. Board your Skyrail Rainforest Cableway gondola with remarkable views of Cairns, the lush tableland region, distant mountain ranges and right out to the turquoise Coral Sea and the Great Barrier Reef. Start your journey back down gliding metres above the rainforest canopy before descending through the canopy layers and deep into the heart of the forest at Skyrail's two rainforest mid-stations at Barron Falls and Red Peak (alight here onto rainforest boardwalks, interpretive information available through short guided boardwalk tours and an interpretive centre). Travel above Barron Gorge National Park and dense World Heritage listed rainforest. As your coach finally takes you back to your hotel, you will have experienced a day filled with new memories to treasure forever.
