Description

This is Fun Falls & Forest - the ultimate tropical road trip through the spectacular Atherton Tablelands waterfall trail! Jump aboard our legendary bus and get ready for a day packed with epic waterfalls, volcanic crater lakes, rainforest adventures, great music, games, laughs, and a whole bunch of new mates. Swim in the crystal-clear waters of Lake Eacham, master the iconic hair flick at Millaa Millaa Falls, slide into adventure at the epic natural rockslide of Josephine Falls, and discover the beauty and stories of the sacred Babinda Boulders. Refuel with a delicious hot lunch and keep your eyes peeled for elusive platypus (seasonal) and tree kangaroos, and spend the day exploring with the crew that has been creating unforgettable memories for travellers for decades! This is the tour that people talk about long after they leave Australia. Don’t just see the Tablelands… experience it the Uncle Brian’s way. Arrive as strangers, leave as family.
