Cairns - A Thriving Hub of World-class Arts and Cultures

Cairns is emerging as one of the most famous holiday spots for national and international visitors in Australia. Being a gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest, this modern city is the best place to enjoy some of the world’s most thrilling experiences. Go water rafting on the Tully River, bungee jumping at the AJ Hackett Bungy Tower, parasailing in the Trinity Inlet, hot air ballooning in the Mareeba Valley and tandem hang gliding over the Coral Sea. If these activities sound a bit too adventurous, then why not take a more laidback approach to exploring the city by admiring stunning views of Barron Falls while travelling on the Kuranda Scenic Railway, or riding the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway for aerial views of the Daintree Rainforest.
