Highlights:
Cairns is a destination where the typical idea of R&R—rest and relaxation—takes on a whole new, adventurous meaning. It's famously the gateway to the World Heritage wonders of the rainforest and the reef, but on Charli's visit R&R meant rapids, and one heck of a ride! Just 30 minutes drive from Cairns city, a unique blend of chills and thrills beckons adventurers to jump into a half-day tubing tour with Cairns Adventure Group.
This is nature's playground, where you can make the experience as relaxing or as thrilling as you like. The tour winds through the stunning Wooroonooran National Park, a location so beautiful that guide Jesse notes people's instant reaction is "wow, this is the most beautiful place I've ever seen before". Floating underneath a living rainforest, not far from the ancient Daintree, the atmosphere is incredible.
The tubing itself is a combination of heart-pumping rapids and calm sections. One moment, Charli was cheering and squealing as she raced down a rapid, shouting "this is so much fun!". Next, she was floating along tranquil waters, soaking in the natural environment. The rapids are gentle and fun for the entire family, making this guided tour a fantastic, family-friendly alternative to full-on white water rafting, and suitable for ages five to 85. The half-day experience includes all safety gear, a small snack, and transfers from Cairns, delivering plenty of laughs along the way.
Who would have thought that relaxation and rapids could go hand in hand? This journey down the Little Mulgrave River proves that Cairns never ceases to amaze. This is R&R, Tropical North Queensland style, an unforgettable joyride that reconnects you with the heart of the rainforest.
