Spend a full day on the Tully River, one of Australia's most renowned white-water rafting rivers, on this guided day trip from Cairns. After pick-up from your Cairns accommodation, you travel to Tully Gorge National Park, where the river runs through World Heritage-listed rainforest and dramatic gorge landscapes. Experienced guides provide all the tuition and safety equipment you need, so no previous rafting experience is required, and then it is time to paddle hard through powerful Grade 3 and 4 rapids surrounded by towering gorge walls and lush tropical scenery. After the rafting, the day winds down with a well-earned country pub dinner before the return transfer to Cairns. Allow about 11 hours for the whole trip. Participants must be at least 13 years old, and a river levy is payable on site on the day. It is a great choice for thrill-seekers and nature lovers looking for a full day of outdoor adventure from Cairns.
