  • 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.

Great Experience

The whole tour experience was awesome. Started with majestic view from train ride to Kuranda, watching Aboriginal dream walker dance at Rainforestation and finished up view on top of Skyrail. This tour is highly recommended.

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.
