Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Rainforestation Nature Park, Kennedy Highway, Kuranda, Queensland 4872 Australia

Enjoy a visit to the award-winning Rainforestation Nature Park, where you can take a tour on a historic World War II Army Duck over land and through water. The friendly and informative Duck Captains will identify and explain the flora and fauna of some of the worldâ€™s oldest rainforest.

Join a guided tour of the Koala and Wildlife Park and see koalas, snakes, dingoes, a cassowary and the only Tasmanian Devils in North Queensland. Learn about their behaviour and quirky traits, as our experienced guides introduce you to each animal. Visit the Barramundi Lake and look out for Jack the Ripper, the 16 foot (5 meter) saltwater crocodile from the safety of elevated boardwalks and platforms. You can see kangaroos and wallabies as they roam freely through the park.

The Pamagirri Aboriginal Experience is unforgettable. Follow your Pamagirri Guide along the Dreamtime Walk down the Rainbow Serpent pathway, and learn how to throw a traditional boomerang. Your Pamagirri guide will demonstrate traditional spear throwing as well as a didgeridoo presentation, followed by an energetic and interactive traditional Aboriginal dance performance in the Rainforest Amphitheatre. The performance depicts aspects of indigenous culture including animals, food gathering and hunting. The rainforest serves as the theatre walls whilst sounds of wildlife provide accompaniment to the haunting sounds of the didgeridoo and clapsticks. Be sure to watch closely - there's a surprise for the audience at the end!

Great experience feeding kangaroos and wallabies. Got to throw a boomerang. Thought the Duck ride would be longer. Also thought we would be holding a Koala bear for the picture, not posing with it. Not much to do in Kuranda village. Thought the day could have been shorter.

This tour is a MUST if you are visiting in Kuranda. Just absolutely EXCELLENT. Our guide, Michael was AWESOME and very informative. We loved everything that he showed us while riding in the Duck, through the Rainforest. The Aboriginee experience was WONDERFUL and extremely informative. Loved the dance show and throwing the boomerangs. Just absolutely the BEST event ever. Highly recommend everyone going on this tour. The Wildlife area was so great as well. Loved seeing and hearing about all the Aussie wildlife that live here. Just wonderful. Book this tour!!!!
