Itinerary

Day 1: Atherton Tablelands

Climb aboard the bus in Cairns and say g’day to your guide and fellow travellers as we start our journey out to Atherton Tablelands. Be sure to bring your swimming gear because day one is all about discovering the spectacular waterfalls and swimming holes the area is famous for.

First up is Millaa Millaa Falls, a postcard worthy waterfall that’s so perfect it’s a tropical cliché. Enjoy a swim behind the waterfalls and get your iconic hair flick photo for the ‘gram before we head to Josephine Falls, natures own waterslide! We’ll take a walk at Babinda Boulders, where your guide will share information about these unique rock formations and you can enjoy, yep, another swim!

Lunch is a yummy 2-course lunch in a beautiful setting before we check out Lake Eacham. This volcanic crater lake is the perfect spot for another swim, and maybe even spot an elusive platypus. As the sun begins to set, we’ll make our way to our accommodation and enjoy dinner. But before you turn in, enjoy the unique opportunity to spot nocturnal animals and appreciate the unbeatable night sky with a night canoe tour. (L and D)

Day 2: Cape Tribulation and Daintree Rainforest

Day two sees us head north into the wild regions of Cape Tribulation and the Daintree Rainforest. We make some stops along the way for photos at stunning lookout points and enjoy morning tea amongst the palm trees at Port Douglas’s 4-Mile Beach.

We’ll cross the Daintree River and head into the rainforest but not before a fascinating wildlife boat cruise. As you meander down the calm waters of the Daintree River, hear all about the local saltwater crocs from your knowledgeable skipper and keep an eye out for them hiding in the mangroves.

We stop for a local lunch and check out the pristine Cape Tribulation Beach before exploring the rainforest with a guided bushwalk. There’s one more chance for a swim at a secluded swimming hole before we start making our way back to Cairns. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled along the way for a cassowary! (B and L)

Arrival guide to Cairns

Cairns is the sort of place that people gravitate to relax and have a good time. The warm tropical climate and access to the Great Barrier Reef and rainforest make it a special place to visit.

Cairns is in North Queensland and is easily accessible by road or by plane. Most people fly here unless they have been slowly traveling up the east coast of Australia.

There’s no shortage of adventure activities to do on one of our Cairns tours Packages. Otherwise, there’s an emphasis on nature activities and getting out into the environment whether it be to Cape Tribulation, the nearby Daintree rainforest on the gondola or visiting the Cairns Dome or Rainforest habitat to see rainforest animals up close.

Check out our Cairns tours Packages or ask us for more information.
