Desde Cairns : Atherton Tablelands Wildlife & Waterfalls





Descripción
Las mesetas de Atherton albergan bosques tropicales antiguos, lagos de cráteres volcánicos y vida silvestre que no se encuentran en ningún otro lugar de la Tierra. Esta es la mejor manera de pasar un día completo en ella. Partiendo de Cairns, su pequeño grupo se dirige a la selva tropical declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad para un día de natación, exploración y observación de vida silvestre. Deslícese por los paracaídas de roca natural en las cataratas Josephine, nade debajo de las cataratas Millaa Millaa, refrésquese en el lago volcánico Eacham y párese debajo de la catedral de 500 años de antigüedad. Los avistamientos son una parte regular del día. Su guía es local y genuinamente apasionado. Señalarán la vida silvestre que pasarías directamente y adaptarán el ritmo a tu grupo. Máximo 20 invitados, por lo que cada parada tiene el tiempo adecuado. Almuerzo de picnic, entradas, permisos para parques nacionales y traslados de regreso a Cairns incluidos. Certificado carbono-neutro. Operador de Queensland totalmente acreditado.

Itinerario
Conoce el autobús de Barefoot Tours en Reef Fleet Terminal, Bus Bay #7, 1 Spence St, Cairns Marlin Marina. Busque el vibrante autobús verde o naranja Barefoot Tours - llegue 15 minutos antes de su hora de salida programada.
Su primera parada es Babinda Boulders, conocido como el parque infantil de la naturaleza, un arroyo tropical de flujo rápido ubicado entre enormes rocas de granito y la exuberante selva tropical de Bellenden Ker. Date un refrescante baño en las piscinas de rocas naturales o camina por el bosque y escucha las leyendas aborígenes que rodean este mágico lugar.
Uno de los lugares de natación más queridos de los Tablelands. Las aguas cristalinas de Josephine Falls se deslizan sobre rocas suaves en una piscina natural con un tobogán de roca que los huéspedes vuelven a buscar una y otra vez.
Una parada de almuerzo pintoresco en el corazón de las tierras de mesa. Disfrute de su almuerzo picnic incluido de sándwiches y plato de frutas en un hermoso entorno de selva tropical.
Un mirador panorámico sobre las colinas ondulantes y las exuberantes tierras de cultivo de las mesetas de Atherton. Una de las mejores paradas de fotos del día.
Una de las cascadas más fotografiadas de Australia, una cortina de agua de una sola gota en una piscina clara rodeada de selva protegida. Es hora de nadar, relajarse y tomar fotos en la cascada más emblemática de Cairns.
Su guía lo llevará a través del corazón de las mesetas, colinas ondulantes, bosques tropicales antiguos y ciudades locales. Los comentarios cubren la historia natural, la geología y la vida silvestre de la región. Esté atento a los canguros de árbol en el camino.
Un baño en uno de los lagos de cráter volcánico más hermosos de Australia. Las aguas cristalinas del lago Eacham están rodeadas por una antigua selva tropical y albergan tortugas y peces de agua dulce que se pueden ver claramente desde la superficie.
Maravíllate con una de las estructuras vivas más notables de Australia, un higo estrangulador de 500 años de antigüedad con raíces que han crecido hasta formar una cámara similar a una catedral en el bosque.
La parada de vida silvestre más destacada del día. Pasea por el arroyo de la selva tropical al anochecer y observa el ornitorrinco salvaje en su hábitat natural, uno de los animales más escurridizos e icónicos de Australia. Los avistamientos no están garantizados, pero son una característica regular de este tour.
Maravilla de los trópicos húmedos: Sumérgete en el corazón de una de las regiones con mayor biodiversidad de la Tierra. El Área del Patrimonio Mundial de los Trópicos Húmedos es un museo viviente de historia natural, hogar de flora antigua y vida silvestre poco común.

A great experience with Renee as the driver and guide. Initially told that we may not go to see the platypus viewing point because they had not seen any in the past 3 months. I told her this was the main reason I booked this trip, so she worked the schedule so make sure we were able to go. We saw multiple platypuses and got some great video of them! Thanks, Renee.
Thanks so much for the lovely review! We're so glad you had a great day with Renee and managed to spot those platypuses! We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to her. Hope to see you again soon!
A long but very busy day, we stopped at about 6 different beautiful places. Our guide was top shelf!
Thanks so much for the great review! We're glad you had a fantastic day and enjoyed the beautiful sights. We're thrilled to hear your guide was top shelf! Hope to see you again soon!
When we reviewed the iternerary the night before we wondered what made us pick this tour. It turned out to be an excellent tour. Our guide Renae, was delightful, friendly, fun and a enhanced out day. She also had a great Playlist. Our group of 7 plus Renae really hit it off. The chatter and engagement continued until the end and we were sad to say good bye. The sights and tour was amazing. We even saw a couple of tree kangaroos and platypus!!
Thanks so much for the lovely review! We're so glad the tour exceeded your expectations and that you had such a great day with Renee. We'll be sure to pass on your kind words to her. Thanks for joining us, and we hope to see you again for another adventure!
Looking at the iternerary we wondered why we picked this long ago... We had the best day!!! Our tour guide, Rene was the best. Friendly, energetic, enthusiastic, calm. And had a great Playlist! We had a great mix of people on the tour who matched Rene's spirit. The sights were amazing and well spaced. We saw a tree kangaroo and a couple of platypus. It turned out to be her first trip as a guide and you would not have known that.
Thanks so much for the lovely review! We're so happy you had such a great day with Renee. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to her—they'll mean a lot. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
Amazing experience with dominic and renee, covered alot of places and very professional
Thanks so much for the awesome review! We're so happy to hear you had an amazing day out with Dominic and Renee. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to them—they'll really appreciate it. Thanks for joining us, and we hope to see you back for another adventure soon!
The experience was fantastic. I enjoyed it. The only thing I can recommend for the tour guide/driver is to do trivia facts or live commentaries while driving and walking so it will not be boring during the travel. Other than this, it was near perfect experience. Thank you Caroline for being the tour guide
Thanks so much for your lovely review and for sharing your feedback! We're so glad you had a fantastic day and that Caroline helped make it such a great experience. We really appreciate your suggestion too, and we'll be sure to pass it on to the team as we're always looking for ways to make the journey even more enjoyable. Thanks again, and we hope to see you back for another adventure soon!
A fantastic day out for any nature lover or those unfamiliar with rainforest environments. Pristine waterfalls, easy graded walking tracks, and if you’re lucky enough, native wildlife. Wear good water shoes if swimming at the waterfalls. Incredible guides who were knowledgeable and friendly with a warm sense of humour and made everyone feel welcome and comfortable throughout the whole day. 10 out of 10 day.
Thanks so much for the fantastic review! We're absolutely happy you had such a great day exploring the rainforest with us. It’s awesome to hear you enjoyed the waterfalls, wildlife, and the company of our guides. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to the team—they'll really appreciate it. Hope to see you back for another 10/10 adventure soon!
Unfortunately we did not enjoy this tour all that much. Our guide only gave a brief few facts on cane toads at the beginning of the drive, then entirely dropped off with any other interesting guiding facts throughout the day. We were dropped off at locations, told where to go, and not much else. We were not too impressed with the guides driving, management of other members on the tour, and her overall guiding approach. Sadly we would not recommend this tour. Josephine Falls and Babinda Boulders were the only good things on this tour.
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear the tour wasn't what you were hoping for, although we're glad you enjoyed Josephine Falls and Babinda Boulders. Our guides each have their own style and may focus on different topics depending on the group, conditions, and interests on the day. We appreciate you sharing your experience and will certainly take your comments on board as we continue to improve our tours. Thank you for travelling with us.
We had a great time with Dom. You can really see his love of nature, Cairns, and the Tablelands. It was a pleasure having him as our guide. We got to see so much. As a bonus, he also graciously took lots of great photos along the way and offered them free to the group. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip.
Thanks so much for your lovely review! We’re absolutely stoked to hear you had such a great time exploring with Dom—he really does have a genuine passion for the Tablelands and it’s awesome that it shone through on your day. Sounds like you made the most of it and saw plenty along the way! We’re also glad you enjoyed the photos—Dom will be chuffed to hear that little extra made your experience even more memorable. Hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Cairns sometime soon!
1. Ten hour trip and the tour agency did not supply any water. Previously I have travelled with other tour agencies in Cairns and they all had water bottles on-board. I couldn't find any refill spots other than the lunch spot. 2. The tour guide, Trevor was fantastic. A great guy and very chatty. 3. Lunch was pathetic. 4. I won't travel with this agency again. 5. Tourists- passenger seatbelt is mandatory in the state of Queensland.
Thanks for sharing your feedback, we do appreciate you taking the time. All of our vehicles are fitted with seat belts, and they’re there to be used throughout the trip while travelling. Thanks again for joining us. Safe travels!
