Tour Description
Take to the sky, then to the river with this great 2 day combination.
DAY 1 - 30 MINUTE BALLOON FLIGHT
As the sun rises your pilots gently lift off and quietly glide the balloons over the panorama of the Cairns Highlands (also known as the Atherton Tablelands). Afterwards you arereturn to the Heritage Museum for a comfort stop, before being returned to your accommodation or Kuranda with plenty of time to enjoy other tours in the same day.
DAY 2 - FULL DAY TULLY RIVER WHITE WATER RAFTING
Begin your day with collection from your Cairns, Northern Beaches or Mission Beach accommodation and travel south to the spectacular surroundings that await you. The Tully River is situated in stunning World Heritage Listed rainforest and offers an awesome day out rafting grade 3-4 rapids over 5 hours.
Enjoy a well earned barbeque lunch alongside the river bank. Expect the need to hold on at times on these moderate technical rapids, however no experience is necessary, most of your fellow rafters will never have rafted before. A sense of adventure is a must!
