About
If you’re coming to Cairns, you’d be mad to miss Tropical North Queensland. Characterised by roaring waterfalls, enormous lakes, lush rainforest and rugged outback, this breathtaking region is one of the most wild and wonderful in all Australia.
Let us take you on a memorable day trip from Cairns, led by a lively and chatty local guide who will let you in on some fun facts – and tasty Tim Tams!
“Not only was the trip absolutely breathtaking, active, and overall phenomenal, but the tour guide was also awesome.” — Taylor, USA
During the course of the day, you’ll experience the best of the Atherton Tablelands including Josephine Falls, a 192m cascade nestled in the heart of the tropical rainforest. Once you’ve taken a dip and snapped photos to your heart’s content, we’ll continue to Millaa Millaa Falls, a heritage-listed plunge waterfall.
At Lake Eacham, we’ll explore the volcanic crater, also listed on the World Heritage Wet Tropics of Queensland.
We’ll also see the famous Curtain Fig Tree, a massive strangler known for its hanging branches. The heritage-listed giant is unique for its extensive aerial roots, which drop 15 meters to the forest floor, forming a 'curtain'.
Depending on the weather and other factors, other possible stops may include Malanda Falls, Tchupala Falls, Babinda Boulders and more.
While the itinerary will be action-packed, we’ll also take three breaks, stopping for locally-sourced tea and plunger coffee (none of the cheap instant variety), a tasty spread of picnic foods for lunch and an afternoon snack of Aussie Tim Tams and fresh fruit. Get ready for a day of beautiful views, delicious food, engaging conversation and general good times!
“Had a fantastic day... The tour was very organized, with well-timed stops, the right amount of information and good food breaks. Our tour guide clearly knows the area and I appreciated her awareness of the environment and indigenous culture, as well as the humorous way she conveyed information.” — Eva, USA
