Join us for an epic full day tour exploring the must see waterfalls and lakes of the Atherton Tablelands.

We start the day with heading west up the mountain range were you’ll uncover amazing views over the Goldsborough Valley and the famous Walsh Pyramid on route to our first destination.

Our first stop is the gorgeous Lake Barrine. You’ll have time to capture gorgeous morning photographs of this picturesque location and soak in it’s magical atmosphere.

Next we arrive at the breathtaking Lake Eacham! This amazing lake is inside a volcanic crater and is surrounded by lush rainforest and is known as the most pristine lake in the Atherton Tablelands. Here we relax, swim, and take in the beauty of this truly breathtaking location.

The Curtain Fig Tree is our next destination - you will be amazed by this unique and fascinating ancient landmark!

We next stop off in Malanda to see some cute local turtles before arriving at the world-famous Milla Milla Falls.

This stunning waterfall has been showcased world wide on the Herbal Essence commercial! Here we’ll take the opportunity to have a dip, snap those picture perfect photographs and enjoy a simple picnic lunch surrounded by nature at its very finest!

On the way to our final location we head to Crawfords Lookout for some amazing views and photograph opportunities before descending down the mountain to Josephine Falls.

A true local favourite, the Josephine Falls is ranked among the most beautiful waterfalls in Australia and boasts pristine waters, beautiful scenery and an epic natural rock waterslide! We stay here hanging out, exploring, swimming, and relaxing until you're ready to hit the road back to Cairns.

Being such a small and personal tour group, we top off the perfect day by offering guests to join in for a bit of fun and drinking at a local venue after the tour.

A really enjoyable day

A wonderful day. Did and saw so much. Trip started at 715 and we didn't get back till 6pm. Dougie Dunn Dundee was our great driver and guide. He was very knowledgeable and had good banter with the group We saw lots of waterfalls which Doug told us the best way to climb. We swam in the lake. He knew a nice cheap cafe for lunch which we had at a picnic spot overlooking more waterfalls. There were quite a few different elements to trip and it was a very full enjoyable experience
