Kuranda

firstly Michael was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the area. The whole experience from the time we were picked up, the train and the sky rail was the most amazing thing I have experienced. It is highly recommended and not to be missed.

Amazing Tour

I'm writing this review on behalf of my parents. They had an amazing time and my parents were very happy with the tour guide. They said that the gentleman was friendly and very helpful. Both my parents are disabled and this tour is perfect for them, it required less walking and they can take their time. They recommended this tour to their friends.

Super nice !

Michael was on time and told us what to expect for the scenic railway. He did some recommandation where to get food during our time in the village of Kuranda. He also text us what to expect in details during the skyrail which was super nice to know! Also, when he pick us up at the end, he showed us a little of the city. He was east to reach via email, phone or text. His answer were quick. I think it was nice to have someone picking us up at the accompagnons-nous and bringing us back ‘cause it would have been hard to manage bus schedule time and all. Really enjoy my experience with Michael!
