Go Train then Cable (do the best first)

Published on Oct, 2024

The Train up to Kuranda (and make sure you go to the Heritage Market there, allow 2 hours there and have Lunch) was fantastic. Do Gold Class it makes for a really special Trip and a wonderful and relaxing and comfortable way to see the region and that amazing waterfall (2 of). We loved this way more than the Cable Cars back but doing both is the way to go, Train first.

Great trip

Published on Jul, 2024

Relaxing train up was interesting with the Barron falls view was spectacular The markets and Kulandra gift shops had a vast array of reasonably priced and decent stuff. The butterfly house was worth a visit. Queues for coffees & food were small. The cable car trip back was beautiful with amazing rainforest canopy views.

Gold class was really very comfortable.Staff were excellent.

Lovely trip

Published on Oct, 2019

Lovely trip, well organised with plenty of time to explore, lovely views form both train (up) and sky rail (down) good for children and adults. Best time would be after the wet season tho’ the lack of water didn’t spoil it for me

Enjoyable

Published on Mar, 2019

We took the Skyrail to Kuranda and rode the train back to town. We upgraded to the Gold Class service. That's the way to go. Comfortable seating, served snacks, beer and wine all the way to town. Stopped At the Barron Falls Station to take pictures of the Barron Falls. The train hosts were knowledgeable and friendly.
