The cable car ride up and railway were amazing, and the waterfalls were breathtaking. I would definitely do this again.

Very good arrangement of pickup and drop off. And Very scenic railway and skyway cable car journey to Kuranda hill station.

But the butterfly park was not worth. Very over rated and costly but not utpo mark, waste of money. It's not included in trip .we did it on own.

Train and cable car was great. Scenic ride, be aware they have front and back facing seats. If you don't like travelling backwards make sure you let the booking office know, so they can allocate an appropriate seat.

The ride around the forest in the "duck" had the most interesting guide with a great knowledge of plants and the environment. the trip back on the sky rail, stopping at the waterfalls was amazing.

Wow wow wow what a fantastic day. We were lucky enough to take the trip on the Kuranda Scenic Railway starting in Cairns. Everything about this trip was excellent from the star of the show The Train to the staff and commentary. The 2 hour journey just flew past with a different thing to see around each corner. Incredible views, magnificent waterfalls and extremely well commentary about the history of the railway. I would highly recommend spending a day on this train. Worth every cent.

Loved the train! We were lucky it wasn't too busy so we had plenty of room. In peak season I would recommend Gold class. The scenery was spectacular. Kuranda was not my cup of tea, way too touristy. But absolutely would do the train again and the sky train on the way down.

We had a great day enjoying gold class on the railway and then the wildlife package that included koalas, birds and butterflies. The on board service was excellent with lovely tea and tasty treats. We purchased at the koala place a chance to hold a koala and have our picture taken. It was delightful. The sky ride back was great with a second view of the magnificent waterfalls. The train stops at one side and the cable car at the other side. At a different stop we had a ranger give us a short tour of the rainforest. It was a great day and we highly recommend it.

The rail was shutdown due to weather conditions. Apparently the wet season shuts the railway down this time of year. No warning until the day before.
