Best of Cairns

Published on Dec, 2024

I can’t say enough good things about this Discovery Tour. We sampled almost everything that Cairns has to offer. Botanical Gardens, Museum, Palm Cove, tea and scones, and more. We were seven in the group. The driver/guide was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I was impressed by his botanical knowledge. Excellent overview of the city, its history, its economy, its geography. Thank you,

Highly recommended

Published on Nov, 2024

It was a well organised tour with friendly and knowledgeable Chris. Would highly recommend the tour.

Great tour

Published on Oct, 2024

The tour was very thorough and driver provided us with quite alot if information about the area. We got to see a vast area in a short time.

Excellent introduction to the city

Published on Oct, 2024

Loved walking round the botanical gardens and the lookout to see all over the city. It was also very informative from a personal point of view.

Learned a lot

Published on Oct, 2024

Chris was terrific. He's very knowledgeable about the botanical garden sugar production and general Cairns history. I am not usually interested in churches, but St. Monica's was not at all what I expected. A surprise delight!
