Half Day Kuranda Skyrail & Train Combo with Transfers From $207pp On Sale Now!

Experience two of Tropical North Queensland’s most iconic journeys!

Your day begins with a hotel pickup by our experienced driver, who will check you in and provide your Kuranda Boarding Pass. This includes your Skyrail and Kuranda Scenic Railway tickets, plus a detailed itinerary with timings, so you can head straight to boarding without delays.

Start with the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway, gliding above the world’s oldest tropical rainforest. Enjoy breathtaking views and stop at two mid-stations – Red Peak and Barron Falls – where you can explore boardwalks and scenic lookouts, learning more about this incredible ecosystem.

Once you arrive in Kuranda Village, you’ll have free time (either 1, 1.5, or 2 hours depending on time slot chosen) to explore. Visit the famous markets, see local wildlife at attractions like Kuranda Koala Gardens, Birdworld, or the Australian Butterfly Sanctuary, or simply relax and enjoy the rainforest atmosphere.

Later, board the historic Kuranda Scenic Railway for one of Australia’s most iconic rail journeys. As the train winds through lush rainforest, tunnels, and past waterfalls, soak in the spectacular views of Barron Gorge before arriving at Freshwater Station.

From there, our driver will transfer you back to your hotel. A written itinerary is available in six languages for your convenience.
