Awesome Tour

This tour was excellent. Brett was great (we have done a tour with him in the past and were so glad we got to do it all over again with him). Really enjoyed Hartley's Crocodile Park and the Scenic Railway (we upgraded to the Gold and it was so worth it). Would highly recommend this tour and the team at Brett's

Fantastic day

Fantastic tour with Brett. Started the day at Hartleys crocodile park. Got to see quite a few crocodiles and go on a short boat cruise. Unfortunately due to heavy rainfall, the scenic rail was closed but we were able to do the scenic cable car ride which has some incredible views. Spent a short time in Kuranda for lunch, a variety of food options and shops for souvenirs. Brett is a great guide for the day and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour.

Operator response

We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you on another tour in the future! Best regards, From all the team at Brett's Kuranda Tours
