My son 8, fell asleep on the scenic railway up to Kuranda. The butterfly sanctuary is good stop for young kids. My advice is to wear something colourful if you wish to attract butterflies. I had a yellow cap on and had butterflies stopped on my head in 3 occations. Army duck was fun experience and also informative about rainforest plants. Love the cable car down, unfortunately the day we went it was very foggy and low visibility. However, we still enjoyed the day a lot.

Very good service for parents with a pram.

We found the experience with Tropical Wings to be above exceptional. We were travelling with a 6 month old baby and all that we need each day to cater for her needs. Every person throughout the day did everything in their ability to help us get on and off transport, assisted with storing equipment when we couldn’t take the pram. Couldn’t recommend higher the experience with this company.

The trip was great, although not all parts. Organization was fantastic, everything on time and according to schedule. The train ride and the skyrail absolutely fantastic, especially the skyrail. Kuranda is interesting but for me too touristy, lots of shops and attractions rather for children. The good thing is that some (all?) shops profit the aboriginal community. Have ambivalent feelings about the army duck ride - the guides are very friendly and knowledgeable, explain about plants and animals fantastically, but the ride itself is very short, too short. the army ducks, the vehicles are interesting, because they were used during the IIWW.
