Transfer by air-conditioned coach to Kuranda village -- a delightful panoramic drive that sets the tone for the great scenery and relaxing atmosphere of the hinterland. You will have some time in charming Kuranda to explore and to shop in the colorful and inviting boutique stores.
Then, board a premium, themed Gold-Class carriage on the very famous and incredibly scenic Kuranda Railway. You will travel in comfort through 15 tunnels and over 37 bridges with sheer cliff faces for most of the journey. Take in panoramic views of the Coral Sea and across Trinity Bay to Green Island, with Cairns in the foreground surrounded by sugar plantations. A taste of the tropics -- local delicacies and accompanying beverages -- is served on the train.
Back in Cairns, you will return to the ship.
Notes:
Not advisable for guests using a wheelchair or for guests with mobility limitations. Tour sequence may vary. Note there is a short walk from the train station/Skyrail to the village on an incline. The Kuranda markets do not operate on Mondays and Tuesdays.
