Cairns 3-Day Adventure Package

5 Reviews

3 days

Overview

This three-day package bundles together four popular Tropical North Queensland experiences in one booking: river tubing, Barron River white-water rafting, a waterfall tour through the Atherton Tablelands, and a full-day Daintree Rainforest trip. It suits travellers who want to cover a lot in a short stay without organising separate tours and transfers. There’s a mix of adrenaline and sightseeing, with hotel pickup and drop-off included. Keep in mind there is an extra river levy of AUD $55 per person, paid on the day.

Free cancellation

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Why backpackers love it

It’s an easy way to fit several big Cairns-area experiences into one short trip, especially if you don’t have your own car. You get a good spread of action and nature rather than three days of the same thing, and the included transfers make the logistics simple. It’s not the cheapest option once the extra levy is added, but it can save time and effort if you were already planning to do multiple tours.

What to expect

The trip starts with rainforest river tubing, with up to 90 minutes on the water, followed by an afternoon rafting session on the Barron River with grade 2 to 3 rapids and around two hours on the river. On another day, you’ll head through the Atherton Tablelands to stops including Millaa Millaa Falls, Josephine Falls, Babinda Boulders, volcanic crater lakes and the Cathedral Fig Tree. The Daintree day includes a traditional Welcome to Country and Smoke Ceremony, a Daintree River cruise, and a visit to the World Heritage area where the rainforest meets the reef. Guides are included throughout, and transport is provided.
