Unforgettable experience in Kuranda
My experience in Kuranda was unforgettable, I was lucky enough to see a Kasawari while taking a river cruise. Michael's organization was perfect and he is very nice, while we were on his bus to Kuranda he informed us about everything we were seeing in Cairns, what we could do in Kuranda and he sent us an informative message with all the details to catch the train back. In Kuranda we were able to visit what we wanted and then return by train, the return by train was a magical experience, the landscapes with waterfalls are incredible. Michael picked us up at the Freshwater station train stop.

Kuranda rail experience
A great day out yesterday especially with the efficient Michael to pick us up and drop us off. Excellent local knowledge which made the trip that more interesting. Would definitely use Cairns Custom Tours again and recommend.
