A must do if you are up in far north QLD. It is an experience like no other and do not worry if you are afraid of heights! I don't like heights but found this experience so enjoyable. I loved the markets at the top of the skyrail and that you get to get on and off at different stops if you choose to. The only thing I didn't like was sometimes having to share the cable car with people we didn't know (go with four people if you can) and don't go on a windy day!!!

Approximate cost: $71 (return)

So glad we went on this on our cairns trip,it was so much fun and so interesting to see the rainforest and towns fom up her!you can literally see everything!im scared of heights so was a little reluctant,but the cabs are extremely secure and you forget to be scared!we went up then got the old fashioned train back,you can buy one way or return tickets,price is bit much,but it is a tourist tour :)

Approximate cost: $47

This was a great way to see the rain forest, you are above the tree canopy and can see for miles. loved it.
If you are afraid of heights this may not be for you, but wife scared of heights but still gave it a go, and although nervous did enjoy it
