Nestled close to the coast, the city of Cairns is a well-known gateway to the spectacular bounty of north-east Australia. But it&rsquo;s not all about Daintree and the Barrier Reef: the glorious green countryside and majestic waterfalls are well worth a visit! We&rsquo;ll take you right to the heart of the region with no need to hire your own vehicle or navigate sporadic public transport.

Beginning just after midday, we&rsquo;ll depart the city and journey towards Josephine Falls, a three-tiered waterfall regarded as the most beautiful in Tropical Queensland. Bring your swimwear because you&rsquo;ll have the chance to beat the heat and dive into its cooling crystal-clear pools.&nbsp;

Next, we&rsquo;ll visit Manu Tropical Skywalk, an iconic swinging bridge boasting spectacular views of the lush rainforest. With 1,200 metres of walking tracks to explore, you&rsquo;ll be kept busy until our next stop...

&ldquo;If you want to learn about the tropical rainforest and Aboriginal life, this is the right place. The views over the rainforest and gorge of North Johnstone River are breathtaking.&rdquo; &mdash; <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g499659-d3320529-r661059481-Mamu_Tropical_Skywalk-Innisfail_Queensland.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Johannes, Germany</a>

Also on the itinerary is Paronella Park, a heritage-listed oasis on the banks of Mena Creek. Open since 1934, this site was the vision of Jose Paronella who dreamt of creating his own paradise &ndash; a wish he fulfilled with this 5-hectare park containing 7,500 species of plants, a picnic area and even a castle!

As the sun sets, your guide will take you on a Darkness Falls Tour, exploring the natural features and illuminated castle at dusk. Before the day&rsquo;s up, we&rsquo;ll enjoy some wallaby-spotting and stargazing as we journey back to Cairns. What more could you want from a day in rural Aus?

&lsquo;&lsquo;Truly magical. I&rsquo;ve come here four times and each person I have brought has also fallen in love with the history of the place.&rsquo;&rsquo;&nbsp; &mdash; <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g1601392-d1055092-r674886491-Paronella_Park-Mena_Creek_Queensland.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">James, Australia</a>
