Great Barrier Reef + Kuranda Train & Skyrail Combo Tour

The Great Barrier Reef + Kuranda Train & Skyrail Combo Tour is curated for travellers who want the best of Tropical North Queensland without compromise. Spend one day on the outer reef aboard award-winning superyacht Evolution, then on another, glide above the ancient rainforest canopy on the Skyrail Cableway and return to Cairns on the legendary Kuranda Scenic Railway through Barron Gorge. Two iconic experiences. One seamlessly packaged Cairns itinerary.

Great Barrier Reef Day
Board Evolution at Reef Fleet Terminal and cruise out to the outer reef, where you'll have more than five hours to snorkel pristine coral gardens, dive with PADI-qualified instructors (upgrade), or simply lounge across three spacious deck levels. Explore two reef locations, usually Norman or Saxon Reef in the morning and Hastings Reef in the afternoon, giving you variety without the crowded pontoon experience. A chef-prepared BBQ buffet lunch is served onboard, and complimentary wine, cheese and biscuits are offered on the return journey.

Skyrail & Kuranda Scenic Rail Day
Your Kuranda day trip from Cairns begins with a one-way transfer to the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway terminal at Smithfield, where gondolas glide silently above the Wet Tropics World Heritage canopy, one of the world's oldest rainforests. Descend into Kuranda, the famous 'village in the rainforest',  where you get up to 3.5 hours to explore the iconic markets, wildlife parks, rainforest walks and local cafes at your own pace. When you're ready, board the Kuranda Scenic Railway for the return journey, a historic descent through hand-cut tunnels and bridges built by Queensland's pioneers over a century ago, winding through the World Heritage-listed Barron Gorge National Park.

Why Choose This Combo Tour
For many visitors, the Great Barrier Reef and Kuranda are the two non-negotiables of a Cairns holiday. Booking this reef + skyrail and kuranda railway combo tour bundles both into a single transaction with flexible scheduling, so you can spread the days across your stay and avoid the logistical overhead of booking each independently. Two of Tropical North Queensland's most visited attractions, packaged with a saving.
