Kuranda Koala Gardens -kierrokset

Kuranda is a small town. Not as vibrant because not all shops open. Time is quite tight. Nice wildlife park. The 2 kangaroos are very docile and open for closeup photos. There are 2 staffs that came out to share about their animals (Jack and the blue tongue lizard). Boomerang throw is great fun. Highlight is the DUKW tour as the guide/driver shares their wealth of knowledge of the plants in the rainforest. Thumbs up! Great for whole family

The overall schedule was well-arranged; it was packed but not too rushed. We took the train up the mountain, and since the Skyrail was under maintenance, we rode a short section of it (still very spectacular) before taking a shuttle bus down. There were many rich and varied activities, including the Kuranda Market, an Aboriginal boomerang and dance performance, and instrument playing. There was also a World War II amphibious vehicle experience. Overall, it was very worthwhile! I also added on the koala holding experience, which was super cute! The tour guide also provided explanations along the way!

Se oli hienoa, kiertueella ei ollut kiirettä, ja meillä oli runsaasti aikaa tutustua metsityksen luonnonpuistoon ja Kurandan kylään.

Kurandan päiväretkemme Klookin kanssa oli upea ja stressitön kokemus alusta loppuun. Nouto- ja palautuskuljetuspalvelu teki koko päivästä kätevän ja huolettoman. Rakastimme Skyrail-kokemusta, liukuessamme upean sademetsän latvuston yllä uskomattomilla näkymillä. Älä unohda pysähtyä tutkimaan sademetsää ja vesiputousten näkymiä. Lintutarha oli kohokohta, tarjoten mahdollisuuden nähdä värikkäitä trooppisia lintuja läheltä Karundan kylässä. Junamatka takaisin oli nautinnollinen, ja rautatien kiehtovan historian oppiminen lisäsi entisestään arvoa. Kaiken kaikkiaan se oli hyvin järjestetty ja unohtumaton päiväretki.

I took the affordable Kuranda Riverboat cruise, and it was a good value for money. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to leisurely observe wildlife! The boat was more like a motorized raft, and the experience time was just right. There were only 8 people during this particular time slot. The old captain was humorous and witty, introducing the reservoir and historical constructions along the way. The best part was the ecological experience; not only did we successfully spot wild freshwater crocodiles, but we also got to hand-feed turtles, and swallows even flew by the boat occasionally. I joined the 2:30 PM to 3:15 PM session, which was originally perfectly timed to connect with the last scenic train at 3:30 PM. Unfortunately, the train was canceled that day due to safety concerns, so we had to take a bus back to Cairns city center instead.

Our guide was very entertaining and explained everything so well. This is the most comfortable way to enjoy the rainforest. The sunset in the forest is also beautiful.
