Things to do in Kuranda Koala Gardens

Our tour guide, Oscar, took excellent care of us. He provided rich explanations at every attraction, and the itinerary was well-arranged. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Spending a day in Kuranda was both busy and delightful. At the Rainforest Center, I had the chance to take a photo with Koloa, which was a real highlight. Because of the crowds, I decided to skip the Army Duck ride, but that didn’t take away from the experience. Overall, the trip was wonderful and full of memorable moments.

The farm is very good. TThe farm is clean. The farm owners are very nice and helpful. They tried to help us to find the transfer. Good experience👍

Great tour, sensational scenic view and great experience with Aboriginal culture.

Most of the people in the tour group were older folks, and I originally thought the trip would be boring, but it was surprisingly fun. The cost already included the Kuranda Scenic Railway, which is usually difficult to book for independent travelers. The ride lasted over an hour, and there were photo opportunity stops along the way. The crew on the National Park's amphibious vehicle were very enthusiastic and introduced various aspects of the rainforest along the way. In addition, you can purchase a separate photo session with a koala, and you can also freely interact with kangaroos and take photos with them. The return trip on the Skyrail took 45 minutes, and there were two stations where you could get off, walk around, and take pictures, allowing you to appreciate the rainforest from a completely different perspective, which was very worthwhile. Overall, the itinerary was well-organized and the time allocation was just right.

Overall, I am very satisfied with the Kuranda Rainforest Day Tour. The itinerary is compact but not rushed, and the arrangement is very reasonable. I saw many Australian animals up close at the small zoo. Holding a koala for a photo was a highlight of the whole trip. The staff was very professional and provided guidance on poses and precautions. The cable car ride offered beautiful scenery all the way, with a wide view of the rainforest, making for great photos. Overall, the experience was worry-free and cost-effective. I recommend it to anyone visiting Cairns for the first time or wanting to see the rainforest in a relaxed way.

The itinerary pickup and drop-off were punctual, the tour guide's explanations were clear, their attitude was good, the process was comfortable and unhurried, it was a great experience, highly recommended to everyone.

The indigenous experience activities are quite special! Also, the amphibious assault vehicle is a unique experience! Taking the cable car 🚡 here is a must! It's a pity I didn't see the magnificent waterfall.
