As your personal rainforest tour, I would like to offer you the fabulous Wooroonooran Rainforest Safari "off the beaten track" to World Heritage-listed Wooroonooran National Park. With the opening of the long-expected Mamu Canopy Walk in August 2008, it showcases one of Australia’s grandest man-made structures in a natural environment.

This area of unsurpassed beauty contains the 2 highest mountains in Queensland, numerous rivers, waterfalls, swimming holes and some of the World's lushest and most ancient rainforests. Besides this tour we have many other tours available for small or large groups on a sole charter basis. One of our specialties is our language service.

Besides English, we have French, German, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin and Spanish speaking guides available and we are proud of our team of multicultural backgrounds.

Cest Bon French Restaurant

Now on Cairns displays.

C’est Bon is Cairns’ only French Restaurant. Originally owned and operated by renowned French Chef/Restaurateur Michel Bonnet and daughter Amelie. In August 2006 Junelle McNaught took over the business of Cést Bon Cairns and continues to run the business successfully. Junelle comes to Cést Bon Cairns after 30 years of running restaurants in North QLD, from Tawnys to Pescis to Mangostins.

C’est Bon is a typically provincial styled restaurant with wooden floorboards, bentwood chairs, white linen… it has an intimately warm feel to it, quite similar to the French bistro interiors of Restaurants in New York and Paris.
The menu features Michel’s original Classical French Dishes, which is unlike anything Cairns has experienced in years…

MAMU

Welcome MAMU to the Cairns & Tablelands displays.

The Mamu Rainforest Canopy Walkway will offer a unique experience. Visitors will get close to rainforest plants and animals, from the forest floor to the forest canopy. They will also enjoy sweeping vistas of World Heritage-listed landscapes. Information signs will help visitors to understand the rich cultural history of the area and the complex web of rainforest life.

The site is on the escarpment of the North Johnstone River gorge, offering spectacular views over a sharp bend in the river and beyond to rainforest-clad mountains. The entire area has cultural significance for the Ma:Mu Aboriginal people.

The walkway will include: a 1km forest walk at ground level, leading to the elevated walkway
a 324m elevated walkway, high in the canopy of this lush tropical rainforest
a 40m-long cantilever and a 37m-high observation tower with two viewing decks, providing spectacular views over the North Johnstone River gorge and surrounding Wet Tropics World Heritage Area seats, information signs and artworks in shelters along the forest walk and on the elevated walkway an entry building, office building, toilets, bus shelter and a combined bus and carpark.

Forest walk

From the entry building, which is a short walk from the carpark, visitors will stroll along the ground-level forest walk to the elevated walkway. This will give a first close-up look at this rich tropical rainforest, part of one of the largest remaining continuous stands of complex vine forest on basalt soils. The walking track will be an easy walk, suitable for wheelchairs and visitors with vision-impairment.

Cantilever

Visitors will arrive at a shelter with seats and information signs. From the shelter a 40m-long cantilevered structure will rise gently as the ground drops away steeply, providing visitors with their first experience of the rainforest canopy. At the end, a viewing platform will offer a magnificent view of the valley below, featuring a sharp bend in the North Johnstone River. Visitors will then return to the shelter and continue along the forest walk to the start of the elevated walkway.

Elevated walkway

The elevated walkway meanders through the rainforest canopy. Along the way visitors will be able to view rainforest plants and animals at close quarters and gain tantalising glimpses of the river valley far below. Two small shelters will provide rest areas and three linking sections will offer the choice to leave the elevated walkway and return to the ground-level forest walk, where two shelters will provide seats and information signs.

Observation tower

At the end of the elevated walkway a short section of the forest walk will bring visitors to the final information and rest shelter. From here a short elevated walkway will lead to the lower viewing deck of the 37m-high observation tower. The top of the tower will be reached by an external stairway (not accessible for wheelchairs) and will provide visitors with spectacular, uninterrupted vistas of the North Johnstone River gorge and surrounding landscapes. Information signs will help visitors to learn more about this landscape.

Glenns Kuranda Half Day Tours.

Hi, my is Glenn and I'd like to tell you what an afternoon on my Kuranda & Cairns Tour entails.

Leaving at 11am means you can enjoy a morning on the beach, a visit to the Rainforest Habitat, go shopping or just have a long lie-in before I pick you up from your accommodation anywhere in Port Douglas. A late departure means we miss the queues and with a maximum of only 12 guests you'll be guaranteed personal service.

Our first stop is at the multi-award winning Skyrail Rainforest Cableway. Enjoy a spectacular journey to Kuranda over some of the oldest Rainforest on earth and with 2 stops on the way you can wander around the boardwalks and visit the Interpretive Centre and learn all about the delicate rainforest ecosystem.

On arrival at Kuranda I'll be there to meet you and show you around this 'Village in the Rainforest'. Famous for its arts and crafts market. Kuranda has many other attractions including the popular Birdworld and Butterfly Sanctuary and boasts many great places for lunch.
After approximately 90 minutes in Kuranda it's time for a trip to Cairns on one of the top rail journeys in Australia. The Kuranda Scenic Rail follows the curves of the Barron Gorge as it weaves its way down to Cairns. Built over 100 years ago to link the coast with the mining towns of the Tablelands., this railway was instrumental in the initial development of Cairns as the major city of Far North Queensland.

In Cairns I'll show you around the city centre, before leaving you to enjoy any of such diverse attractions as the Nightmarkets, Cairns Marina, Casino, Art Gallery, a swim in our new lagoon or just enjoy a beverage in one of the many sidewalk cafes facing Trinity Bay. After 60 minutes in Cairns we return at sunset to Port Douglas and the end of our afternoon together.

Those guests not wishing to travel on Skyrail can travel with me and enjoy a little extra time in Kuranda and guests not wanting to travel on Kuranda Scenic Rail can spend extra time in Cairns.
