The gondola ride was terrific. The time allowed in town was too short as there had been a large line to go up the gondola which chewed up our town time. Very disappointed the train ride was cancelled but understand the reason that repairs from the cyclone weren’t finished.

Rainforest views were amazing on the ride up. Big let down was that the train was not running adn that was a major reason we booked. We were to receive a partial refund, but it was less than the price of the posted train ride, so feel ripped off. Felt rushed through Karunda to catch our next tour to Naturepark which was a let down. Animals in cages with cement floors. Good tropical forest Duck ride for botanists lots of plant info. Aboriginal dance was interesting and educational. The animals looks terrible. Koala photos weren't available after our otherevents that were timed so missed that. Would liek more of a refund. Especially since we found out from another tour operator that when rainy season hits the train doesn't run. so they probably new it ahead of time. Beware, "When it rains, no train."

We loved the skyrail and the rainforeststation area. The pick up was great coming to the hotel. The buffet lunch was awesome and lots of food. Plenty of entertainment throughout the day. Did not feel rush as it was laid out with plenty of time to spend at each area.

We did so much today. We needed more time at each place. You cannot do all this in one day and enjoy it. Need 2 days to see everything. The butterfly sanctuary was wonderful but again not enough time to enjoy it. The Aboriginal Dancers were excellent. Wildlife Park was good too. If you have very little time do this tour. Otherwise spread it over 2 days
