Great trip

Published on Sep, 2024

This is a really varied tour with highlights of the city stopping to see a magnificent stain glass window in Saint Monica’s Cathedral, having a personal tour around Cairns museum and then out to have a superb afternoon tea, all the places are visited on the tour where extremely interesting and would definitely recommend this again,

A totally enjoyable day

Published on Jul, 2024

We started with the small group Cairns River Cruise which was very informative and relaxing, a great way to start the day. This was followed by a delicious lunch at Dundee’s on the wharf and the small group Cairns City Sights which was a really good way to have an overview of Cairns. A totally enjoyable day. Maryanne at Cairns Discovery Tours was very helpful with suggestion for our holiday in Cairns.

Wonderful experience.

The sights were amazing. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and had fabulous personalities. The lunch at Dundee's on the waterfront was perfect.
