It was a pleasant trip for a group of four. We enjoyed the Kurunda Tour.

It was a pleasant trip for a group of four. We enjoyed the Kurunda Tour. We enjoyed Skyrail and Scenic Railway. It was an easy and quick purchase with Experience Oz. I have been purchasing with Experience Oz especially in Gold Coast. No hassle or dramas till this day. I would recommend it to others.

Trip changed to hotel pickup which went well, no problems.

Great rail trip and time spent in Kuranda. Skyrail very enjoyable and all sections of the trip went smoothly. Drop off back to hotel uneventful. Weather could have been better but that is the luck of the draw. Overall a great, well organised day trip in a very scenic environment.

Very unhappy with this tour. Totally not what we paid for. Information was misleading.

The voucher we were sent requested we arrive at 7.50 for an 8.10 departure for the train leaving at 8.50. We waited nearly an hour & then found out that this was completely incorrect. There was no 8.50 train at all & hadn’t been for some time. When we were finally met by a representative from Down Under Tours they then explained that we would now have to catch the sky rail & then have to catch the train back at 3.30pm. The tour you booked us on said we would return at 12.45. We had made other plans for the afternoon which then had to be cancelled. You booked us on a tour that didn’t actually exist. I know you will probably say we should’ve confirmed the details but that does not excuse the fact that when you sold us this tour it was based on outdated information & totally incorrect. I honestly believe a refund or some sort of compensation should be forthcoming.
