Warmly recommended !

Published on Feb, 2025

We took the budget tour as we already took the train years ago. Brett is a great guy and the trip was easy and fun. Unfortunately the weather was bad but it remained a good experience.

Brett’s Kuranda Day tour

Published on Jan, 2025

We had a wonderful day trip with Brett , knowledgeable host and friendly. Good for young children and old alike, try the train ride up and the sky rail back. Leave time for the butterfly enclosure and try the local food shops cafes etc. Beautiful location and an hour out of Port Douglas. Highly recommended
