Tour Description
For a truly memorable experience, try a balloon flight at dawn over the Atherton Tablelands. Our giant balloons accommodate up to 20 people, and glide gently over the bush land and farms of the Mareeba Valley.
Depart Cairns early morning to travel to Mareeba Valley on the Atherton Tablelands. The balloons are inflated in a spectacular display, and prepared for flight. The first flight gracefully lifts off, while passengers for the second 30 min flight board the coach and chase the balloon to it's landing site. The second flight lifts off while the passengers from the first flight travel aboard the coach to the pack-up site. Have fun helping pack-up our giant Balloons beforea comfort stop & grab a bite to eat (own expense).
We then travel to Kuranda, with plenty of free time to explore this village in the rainforest.
Next it's time to board Skyrail, the world's longest gondola cableway. The cable stretches 7.5 kilometres just metres above Far north Queensland's world heritage rainforest with views of the coast like you've bever seen before.
At the end of the cableway is Tjapukai, the aboriginal cultural park which gives you a glimpse into the culture of Australia's native people. Finally we return you to your accommodation in Cairns. A brilliant day for people of all ages.
