Depart for Australia (2 Days)
Fly over the international date line on your way to Australia.

Arrive Cairns (1 Days)
Check into your Cairns Colonial Club Resort,the rest of the afternoon is free for you to explore.

Cairns to Cape Tribulation (1 Days)
The rainforest adventure begins! We head north to see Port Douglas for lunch, with time to enjoy this holiday resort for the rich and famous. Then on to Mossman Gorge for a trail walk and perhaps a refreshing afternoon swim. We'll then head up the coast towards Daintree and our resort.

Cape Tribulation (1 Days)
The opposite of tribulation. Today we'll explore the lush Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation National Park. A 'must do' is a dip in one of the many swimming holes before we head back to Cape Tribulation Beach.

Cape Tribulation to Cairns (1 Days)
Crossing the Daintree River, we leave the heritage listed rainforest to visit Tjapukai and Kuranda with the chance to take a scenic ride high above the rainforest rooftop on Skyrail. Then check into our Cairns hotel, situated in a lush tropical setting.

Cairns (2 Days)
For the adventurous a chance to do some white water rafting on the rapids of the Tully River, or take the opportunity to visit the famous Outer Barrier Reef aboard a high-speed catamaran. Why not scuba dive amidst amazingly colourful tropical fish? Or if you prefer, maybe spend the days at leisure doing some shopping in town. In the evening we'll check out more tropical wildlife at one of Cairns' nightclubs!

Cairns to Whitsundays (1 Days)
We'll leave this morning to travel South to Townsville to explore the scenic lookout of Castle Hill. This evening we'll board our launch at Shute Harbour and make the short journey to Long Island - one of the jewels of the Whitsundays.

Whitsundays (2 Days)
Time to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and great amenities of Long Island. Feeling energetic, why not go bushwalking, play tennis or beach volleyball, take to the water with a snorkel or a jet ski? Want to relax? Then unwind on the palm-lined beach, have a massage, or sip cocktails on the verandah as you watch another perfect sunset.

Whitsundays (1 Days)
Final farewell to your fellow travellers as your tour ends after breakfast. But why not extend your stay in paradise?
