Overview

Embark on a full-day adventure from Cairns, exploring Queensland’s historic gems and unique wildlife encounters.

Start your day at 8 a.m. with a journey to Paronella Park, Queensland’s first and only castle. Built in the 1930s by José Paronella, this architectural marvel is set amidst lush gardens, waterfalls, and historical ruins, offering a glimpse into the past.

Next, travel to the Historic Village Herberton, an open-air museum showcasing Queensland’s pioneering era. With over 60 restored buildings, including shops, banks, and war memorabilia, this village provides a captivating look into Australia’s early days.

Wrap up the experience with a visit to Granite Gorge, home to the adorable Mareeba Rock Wallabies. Hand-feed these rare and friendly creatures in their natural habitat while enjoying the picturesque surroundings.

Led by a local expert guide, this small-group tour (up to six people) ensures a fun, relaxed, and immersive experience.
