Reviews: All Inclusive Waterfalls and Rainforest Tour from Cairns
Guest User2024-07-10
If you are coming to CAIRNS for a holiday then this is a MUST DO Tour through WATERFALL WANDERERS Cairns Adventure Group. The road up to the falls is through a lovely forest but a small tip for those who get a bit car sick, it is very windy so prepare before hand. You will find that it is worth the climb and levels out on top. The waterfalls are FAB and it was possible to swim at all the falls we visited. If you are not a swimmer, the tour is still magical with lovely walks to the falls through the forest and many great photo opportunities. Lunch enroute was a very nice lasagne and chips in a pub with a vegetarian lasagne choice as well. A big shout out to our guide Orion who looked after us the whole trip and contributed to making this a wonderful tour.★

Reviews: Grand Kuranda including Skyrail and Kuranda Scenic Railway
Guest User2024-07-22
Me and my family took an army duck tour last sunday and we had a really good time. We would like to compliment your new guide Mark. He had really good and interesting comments about nature and wildlife that made the tour fun and enjoyable. We also loved other activities in Kuranda, like the Pamagirri Aboriginal experience. We learned how to throw a boomerang and we enjoyed the presentation of Aboriginal coulture. The scenic Railway had some really good views and the train to Cairns was most enjoyable. Sending love from Slovenia.★

Reviews: Cairns: Great Barrier Reef Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch
Guest User2025-12-02
The crew were so attentive and helpful, I was nervous about snorkelling after a previous scary experience but the attention to health and safety and the kindness of the crew allowed me to re gain my confidence and enjoy the day so much. Thank you all especially the supervising who took me out and stayed with me until I felt confident.
