The Kuranda train and skyrail tour will pick you up from your accommodation in the morning and transfer you to Cairns Central Station where the scenic rail takes roughly an hour and a half to travel up the range. Once up in Kuranda you will have roughly three hours to experience what ever you choose. After 3 hours of shopping, relaxing, eating or even visiting wildlife parks you then board the Skyrail for a unique view of the rainforest. As you glide slowly in your air conditioned cabin just metres above the rainforest canopy, you will get a view of the rainforest that is truly unique. The Skyrail trip back down will also provide opportunities to disembark for some time at midway stations and walk through the rainforest or view the Barron falls. The Skyrail will finally take you back to Caravonica where a bus will be waiting for you to transfer you back to your holiday accommodation.
