The aquarium after dark we had the whole aquarium to ourselves so a small group. Our guide Sasha was passionate about the reef, environment & endangered species. Thank you Sasha for the great night

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. 😁👌

Tour group made what would seem like a complicated day trip very easy and enjoyable. Hotel pickup was appreciated. Tour lead provided tickets and instructions on how to execute the day. The Skyrail was a really neat trek and the town of Kuranda was definitely worth visiting. We had a great lunch up there and also paid to go into the Koala Gardens (mini zoo) where we could pet and feed kangaroos! The train ride home was memorable, though it is a long slow ride. Highly recommend booking this tour if you have an extra day in the Cairns area. Well worth it!

The Cairns Scenic Railway & Skyrail Kuranda Tour was one of those rare experiences we undertook during our visit to the great continent-county of Australia. The iconic and well presevered train transported us into another era. The commentary as we traversed through the widing tracks and the plethora of tunnels was very informative. The stops at the Barror Gorge and Falls was very good and sufficient to look in awe the grandeour of nature's work. The Kuranda village had a relaxed, bohemian vibe. We easily spent time wandering through its markets, cafes, and wildlife attractions. The return journey on the Skyrail was a standout. Gliding silently above the rainforest canopy feels almost surreal. We literally floating above one of the world’s oldest rainforests. The Skyrail offers a completely different perspective from the train — airy, expansive, and deeply peaceful.
