Being locals in Cairns we have always had it on our list to do hot air ballooning in Mareeba. We also thought it would be a nice idea to relive our childhood and do the Kuranda train like we used to do on school excursions. The balloon flight was everything I had hoped and the scenery was great. The train ride was just as I remember it and I really enjoyed the commentary as we can down the Macalister Range.

The hot air balloon flight and the train ride from Kuranda both had spectacular views. We loved the opportunity on the train to stop for 10 minutes for photos at the Barron Falls. Both are a definite must when visiting Cairns.

The staff members were all so lovely and seemed to genuinely love their jobs. The balloon flight was fantastic. We then spent some of the day wandering around the Kuranda markets gathering souvenirs for our friends back home before catching the scenic railway back to cairns.

I highly recommend doing hot air ballooning when in Cairns. I also did the train ride which was ok, nice views but a bit boring by the end.
