Tour Description
Cairns Discovery Tours is Cairns’ official city sightseeing tour, in operation for over 20 years. Whether you love waterfalls, birdwatching, tropical plants, history, culture or coast, there’s something for everyone. We look forward to welcoming you on board!
The afternoon tour begins at the water’s edge, gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. Travel in air-conditioned comfort with your local guide; step inside St. Monica’s Cathedral where you will marvel at the world’s largest themed stained-glass windows. Explore Cairns and delve into the city’s history. Immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage that is the Far North.
Visit Cairns Museum at the School of Arts Building, in the heart of the city. You will be greeted by a dedicated guide for an exclusive tour of the museum (free re-entry included, valid for 3 days). Enjoy an afternoon tea at a local Cafe in the leafy suburb of Edge Hill before continuing to Cairns Flecker Botanic Gardens to discover the unique flora of the tropics.
Your guide will lead you back to the air-conditioned vehicle for an exploration of Cairns’ scenic surrounds. The first stop is a scenic city lookout, so have your camera at the ready. Next, visit Lower Barron Gorge National Park and Surprise Creek Falls where there are plenty more photo opportunities. Continue on to Palm Cove, one of Cairns’ most picturesque northern beaches. Walk along the jetty or feel the sand between your toes on Palm Cove beach before the tour concludes.
You will be returned to your accommodation in the Northern Beaches or Cairns City at the end of the tour.
Note: Lunch is NOT included in this tour.
