Itinerary

  • Atherton Tablelands (Pass By)

    Departure from Cairns, we head south travelling past Walsh’s Pyramid, one of the largest naturally formed pyramids in the world. Here your guide will stop so you can grab a photo of this unique North Queensland landmark. Now it’s time to travel up the World Heritage listed Gillies Highway climbing 730 metres above sea level whilst enjoying the breathtaking views over the Goldsbourgh Valley. Just before the top of the amazing Gillies Range is a short photo opportunity at the Heales Lookout before heading into the gorgeous Atherton Tablelands.

  • Lake Barrine

    Enjoy a relaxing quiet stop in the cool of the morning at beautiful Lake Barrine (crater lake) filled with pristine rain water and surrounded by World Heritage listed rainforest teeming with abundant wildlife. This is the first stop of the day and includes a delicious morning tea. Lake Barrine are famous for their award winning ‘Devonshire Morning Tea’ of freshly baked scones and jam/cream and locally brewed tea or coffee.

    1 hour 15 minutes

  • Curtain Fig National Park

    After leaving Lake Barrine, we take a short journey through quaint country towns and farming areas to visit an unusual quirk of nature – the 600 year old Curtain Fig Tree nestled in World Heritage Mabi rainforest. This is the worlds most visited tree and easily accessible via elevated boardwalks. The surrounding rainforest is home to the shy Lumholtz Tree Kangaroo – only found in Queensland. We spot them seasonally high up in the trees.

    20 minutes

  • N/A

    After departing the Curtain Fig Tree, we travel through picturesque farming areas and country villages to visit world famous Millaa Millaa Falls, one of the most renowned and photographed waterfalls in Australia surrounded by Mabi rainforest. This waterfall has been used as a feature in both television advertisements and movies. The waterfall flows over solid volcanic basalt rock formed over many thousands of years ago giving the perfect drop for Millaa Millaa creek to fall for approx 20 metres into a pool surrounded by rainforest.

    20 minutes

Great day

Published on Jan, 2025

A big enjoyable day with a great host driver who was authentic and down to earth.It itinerary was varied and interesting.

Awesome day - not to be missed

Published on Dec, 2024

From start to finish this was an awesome day. Our guide (Darryl) was extremely knowledgeable and informative. He engaged with every nationality on our trip. The cream teas were divine and swimming in the waterfall was an awesome experience. I wish I had taken ocean shoes as the waterfall was rocky underfoot as you got in.

A Unique and Wonderful Time in Australia

Published on Aug, 2024

The tour was excellent! So many unique stops and sights were packed into a fun filled day. Our guide, Stephen, was the absolute best!

Fantastic. Well worth the day

Published on May, 2024

We were picked up at the given time. Our guide for the day was informative and very good. The Paronella Park was the definite highlight although we had a wonderful day. The weather wasn't great but it didn't detract from the day at all
