Reviews
Great day despite missing some of the activitiesjjhmolbio
This was a great day. We did enjoy the train a lot and then the small town of kuranda was very quaint and touristy. Then the rainforestation was excellent with the duck boats and all the other activities. Lunch was great and overall a great experience. My only complaint is that we couldn't get into the butterfly sanctuary and nobody could confirm that our ticket was good for the butterfly sanctuary so we didn't get to see that and the skyrail which said was included wasn't.
