Discover the beauty and wonder of Kuranda as you take a journey on the longest established coach operator in Cairns to explore the Kuranda World Heritage Rainforest by both Scenic Railway and the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway.
Your day begins with a coach pick up from your Cairns accomodation for a 8:50am Kuranda Train departure from Freshwater Station. Wind through tunnels and over bridges on this magnificent journey, passing Stoney Creek and Barron Falls before arriving at Kuranda Station at 11.25am.
Take a short stroll through Kuranda Village before meeting the bus to take you to the award winning Rainforestation Nature Park at 11.45am.

- Enjoy delicious hot lunch at our Rainforest Cafe.
- Army Duck Rainforest Tour with Tropical Fruit Orchard. Travel deep into the rainforest on both land and water as your guide explains different species of flora and fauna.

- Koala & Wildlife Park. Learn more about our native wildlife from our dedicated keepers. See crocodiles, wombats, snakes, dingoes and a cassowary, and hand feed kangaroos and wallabies. You’ll have an opportunity to have a photo taken with a koala or holding a small crocodile.
Meet the tour bus again at 3pm and take a trip back to the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway for a stunning journey high above the Rainforest. This takes 30-40 minutes however you take the option to hop off and spend some time at both Red Peak Station and Barron Falls Station enroute.
At 4.30pm we meet the driver guide and depart from the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway base terminal and head back to your Cairns accomodation.

It was a great experience
It was a great experience, but the bus pick-up and drop-off service could be improved. After I told customer service my address, they directed me to the Gillians Backpackers Resort, an 18-minute walk away, and told me the driver would wait for me there. However, once I got in the bus, I discovered the driver would also pick up passengers from the Double Tree Hotel, which is closer to me. I mean, it would have been much better if customer service could at least search my address and direct me to a more suitable location for the bus.

Hi Yue Hu, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear you had a great experience overall, and we appreciate you highlighting the pick-up location concern. Our pick-up points are coordinated to keep the route running smoothly for all guests, but we understand that clearer guidance around the most convenient nearby location would have made things easier in your case. Your comments have been shared with our reservations team as we continually look to improve communication and guest experience. Thank you again for travelling with Tropic Wings.

Kuranda
The tour was well organized and they fit a lot into the day. This is a busy tour with many people. We probably would have preferred a smaller group had we realized how many people we would be moving around with. The lunch was mediocre and honestly we would have preferred to eat at an establishment where we didn’t feel like cattle being herded through feeding troughs. Our drivers were amazing. The cultural dance and education was well done. The wildlife was neat and animals seemed well cared for. The train was a nice experience and the Skyrail was very pretty.

Hi Rochelle, Thank you for your detailed feedback — we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the day overall, especially the train, Skyrail, and the cultural and wildlife experiences. We appreciate your comments around the group size and lunch. As a full-day tour, it can be a busy itinerary, but we understand this style doesn’t suit everyone. Your feedback is valuable and will be shared with our team. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience.
