Waterfall Wanderers Day Tour
from $189

1 day
Swim, slide, and explore iconic Cairns waterfalls including Babinda Boulders, Josephine Falls, Millaa Millaa, and Lake Eacham on this epic rainforest adventure.
Get ready for a full day of fun, swimming, and breath-taking natural beauty on the Waterfall Wanderers Day Tour, Cairns' ultimate rainforest and waterfall adventure through the stunning Atherton Tablelands.
This action-packed road trip takes you deep into the Wet Tropics World Heritage rainforest to discover some of North Queensland's most iconic and photogenic waterfalls.
Start your day at Babinda Boulders, a place of cultural significance to the Yidinji Traditional Owners.
Surrounded by lush rainforest, you'll hear the local legend behind this sacred site while taking in its serene beauty and crystal-clear waters.
Next, dive into the natural rock slides of Josephine Falls, where smooth granite rocks and cascading waters create the perfect playground for thrill-seekers.
Don't forget your GoPro - this spot is pure fun!
Then, strike your best hair-flick pose at the world-famous Millaa Millaa Falls, a postcard-perfect 18-metre waterfall plunging into a cool rainforest pool. It's one of the most photographed waterfalls in Australia for good reason.
Finally, unwind at Lake Eacham, a peaceful volcanic crater lake filled with rainwater so clear you can see to the bottom. It's the perfect way to relax and soak in the beauty of the Tablelands before heading back to Cairns.
Whether you're chasing adventure, stunning scenery, or the perfect Instagram moment, Waterfall Wanderers delivers an unforgettable day of rainforest magic and refreshing swims in paradise.
