Coses per fer a Cairns

I went on a snorkeling tour. It included boat transportation to and from the island, snorkeling gear rental on the island, and access to showers and a swimming pool there. For lunch, I had Thai food that I bought at the night market the day before. The snorkeling was truly wonderful. The water was very shallow, with lots of coral, and I saw turtles, stingrays, sharks, giant clams, and lionfish. There were many other fish as well. It was a bit cold due to the strong wind and lower water temperature, but I was able to warm up again on the sandy beach.

Service was fast and convenient. The train made a stop at Barron Falls station for us to have a look. Do keep in mind the weather can get windy at times (especially when ascending uphill), so keep a light jacket & hat with you. Upon arriving at Kuranda you'll have roughly 3-4 hours to explore around.

the aquarium is very nice with ecologists dharing knowledge of the marine life.

Great day tour at the Reef, we got to stop at 2 diving spots and my package also includes 1 helicopter flight. The operator also has a photographer, who helped you took underwater photos which you can purchased later (though it is quite pricey at $20/pic). Lunch is basic (steak, prawns, grilled fish, salad & pasta) but delicious, and the prawns were very fresh. What I wish could have been better is the helicopter flight announcement - it would have been better if they announced my turn roughly 10-15 mins before the flight took off, so I'd have enough time to change to normal clothes (I was snorkelling right before that). Also I believe if passengers are given at least 30 mins before departure to take motion sickness pills, it will work better. Some passengers on my trip took the pill but still got sick, maybe bcoz the pill did not have enough time to take effect (you gotta take it after breakfast, at least 30 mins before departure).

Vista de la selva tropical de Daintree des del cel. Vam canviar al telefèric de dues vies, ja que el tren de tornada era bastant tard i ens allotjàvem a Port Douglas. Hi havia 3 parades i vam poder veure les cascades Baron i passejar pel poble de Kuranda.

Great Tour, very comfortable ship, good Team, good food, very good Overall experience!! Very Special thanks to Simon!! Great German Guido who helped us with our 6year or Child to See everything during the snorkeling! Outstanding guide, he is the Best, especially if you Need help around the Boat and or snorkeling!

Great day tour to the Daintree, but I do feel like the itinerary is a bit rush. We got too little time stopping at the Mossman River Creek & Cape Tribulation (I really wished we had more time in those places). On the other hand, I really love the welcome to country ceremony & introduction to local indigenous culture - really eye opening experience. The river cruise and walk thru the rainforest also came with clear introduction & excellent guide.

Una experiència meravellosa! Molt ben organitzat per a més de 100 passatgers, des de la seguretat, els seients, l'equipament fins al dinar i el berenar. Genial per a la nostra primera vegada fent snorkel, i el personal va ser amable. Malauradament, l'helicòpter va ser cancel·lat a causa del temps, però tot el demés va ser bo. Tot i que ens vam marejar molt (encara que vam prendre pastilles), va valdre totalment la pena!

El nostre tour es va endarrerir una hora a causa del mal temps (bastant inusual, tenint en compte que l'hivern se suposa que és la "temporada seca"), però sincerament van prendre la decisió correcta! Vam tenir una breu finestra de bon temps i bona visibilitat sobre els esculls. El pilot, Jesse, va ser molt amable i alegre; em va fer seure al seu costat en veure que viatjava sol, i sincerament va fer que l'experiència fos molt millor! A més, va ser un dels aterratges més suaus que he experimentat mai en un avió; ni tan sols vaig notar que ja estàvem amb les rodes a la pista. Recomano molt aquest tour! Però permeteu una mica de flexibilitat en el vostre horari, ja que és una activitat molt dependent del temps: estigueu atents a la previsió 2-3 dies abans de fixar una data.
