Kuranda Train & Skyrail
Wonderful trip up and back! The train was fantastic - such a beautiful old train. The skyrail was amazing! Fantastic scenery on both. Would thoroughly recommend them.

Self-organise the trip to Kuranda
Honestly, any "deal" on the train/skyrail trip to Kuranda by an external company is a rip off. Just go to the train station and buy your ticket individually or book it via the train's/skyrail's website. For a train ride up to Kuranda and skyrail down you pay $ 103, instead of $ 120 - $ 140 with an external company.
