Immerse yourself in the coast with the most with this one-of-a-kind 9-day rail adventure showcasing the best of tropical North Queensland including the Whitsundays, the Great Barrier Reef, Mission Beach, Cairns, the Daintree and Tablelands.
Departing from Brisbane, begin your hop-on, hop-off journey aboard the Spirit of Queensland, hitting every hotspot along the way. First stop is Airlie Beach, the launchpad to the wonderful Whitsundays. Set sail onboard an 84-ft ocean-faring catamaran to the famous Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet and spend the day island hopping between Daydream and Hamilton Island. The stunning natural landscapes of coast and islands must be seen to be believed.
Continue north to the sleepy seaside village of Mission Beach, the closest access point to the Great Barrier Reef. Immerse yourself in a tropical paradise with no traffic lights, no chain stores and no crowds. No stay here is complete without a visit to nearby Dunk Island. Covered mostly in national park, Dunk is a nature lover’s playground with beautiful walking trails and palm-fringed beaches that you will never want to leave.
Cap off your journey aboard the Spirit of Queensland with four nights in Cairns, the modern and vibrant capital of North Queensland. Over two days, venture out with a naturalist guide to the Daintree, Cape Tribulation and the Tablelands to see where the rainforest meets the reef. You’ll have the opportunity to explore the world’s oldest rainforest, get up close and personal with native wildlife in its natural habitat, explore historic towns and taste delicious gourmet treats such as handmade chocolates, cheese and coffee.
You’ll stay in a luxury serviced apartment in Airlie Beach and luxury resorts in Mission Beach and Cairns. All accommodations are conveniently located to main streets, eateries, shopping areas and other local attractions. The serviced apartment features a kitchen, while the 5-star resorts includes daily breakfast and access to highly rated onsite restaurants. Other meals are included as specified.
This one-of-a-kind 9-day package includes 9-nights’ accommodation on a twin-share basis. You’ll travel aboard the Spirit of Queensland on a stop-over fare, which includes a RailBed for the Brisbane to Proserpine leg. All other transport and transfers are included as specified in the itinerary. Activities and experiences are also included as specified.
Make the most of the tropical North Queensland coast with this unforgettable 9-day package that combines the romance of rail travel with the rainforest and reef. There truly is no better way to explore this spectacular part of the world!
