About this tour
Spend eleven hours exploring Tropical North Queensland's rainforest and volcanic plateau with a small group and local guide. Travel through the UNESCO-listed Wet Tropics, stopping at three distinct landscapes: the tiered Millaa Millaa Falls for swimming, the crater lake of Lake Barrine with its ancient Curtain Fig Tree, and the sprawling historic ruins of Paronella Park. Air-conditioned transport, morning tea, lunch and park entry included.

What to expect
You'll travel in a comfortable minibus with around a dozen others and a guide who knows the region well. The day starts with morning tea before heading into rainforest country. Stops are spaced out so you're not rushing—you'll have time to swim at Millaa Millaa, walk around the volcanic lake and its remarkable fig tree, and spend a good stretch at Paronella Park learning its history. Lunch breaks at a local restaurant. Commentary throughout is in English only, though guides can speak Chinese or Japanese during the Paronella Park portion. The pace suits all fitness levels.
Good to know
Hotel pickups cover Cairns area only; Northern Beaches accommodation requires paid transfers. Prams and infant seats available. Wear swimmers and bring a towel for the waterfall swim. Tour doesn't operate from Port Douglas. Public transport options exist nearby if you prefer to meet the group at a set point.
