Cairns Custom Tours is locally owned and operated, is fully insured and is an accredited transport provider in Queensland since September2019. Join me, Michael, on one of my Kuranda tours. My tours take only 11 passengers so less pick ups and drop offs means less time going in circles to before heading to Skyrail or the Kuranda Scenic Rail. Passengers arriving on cruise ships into Cairns between 8.30m and 10am please note we may be able to accomodate you with a later start and the 3.30pm train instead of the 2pm train from Kuranda. You would arrive back at the Cruise Liner Terminal about 5.30pm. Please contact me. I regret that I cannot service cruise ship customers at Yorkey's Knob on my normal days of operation. (Wednesday, Thursday and the weekend)  These visits no longer fit my tour schedules.
