    A great day, with friendly and helpful staff. The train was comfortable and clean and offered stunning views as the train climbed the the mountain. The handout, given to us by train staff, provided extra information on the construction and history of the train. The skyrail provided further opportunities to see the stunning views. Having the ability to disembark allowed us get further views of the waterfall and the rainforest interior. We highly recommend

    A fantastic experience. Located in the heart of Cairns is a unique aquarium that is beautifully designed. There is lots of interesting information about Australia's marine life and reptiles. The staff are very nice and friendly. Shortly before the exit, you walk through a glass tunnel through a conglomerate of several connected pools, which contain giant rays and sharks, among other things, which I found absolutely impressive. The admission price of AUD 58 for adults is absolutely justified. I highly recommend a visit. 😁👌

    Enjoyed the day, first the rain then a look around Karunda village and then the cable can back down. The shop owners in the village don't like you to take photos which is funny because we where in one shop who where selling Kmart hair clips that are $5 for $35!! So be aware of some of the shops ripping off customers.

    The train to Kuranda offered spectacular views of the valleys and waterfalls. It was nice to have a stop to take pictures and take in the scenery. Kuranda village was a nice stroll to see the shops. The highlight of the trip was the cable car ride over the rainforest canopy. Seeing the beautiful blue butterflies over the trees was my favorite moment.
