How many days do you need to see Cairns?

For a comprehensive and immersive Cairns experience, spend a minimum of 3 to 5 days there. This will allow you to explore the city itself, as well as venture into its stunning surroundings. During this time, you can indulge in the vibrant atmosphere of the city, discover its rich cultural heritage, and embark on thrilling adventures in the nearby natural wonders. Make the most of the time you have there by taking advantage of an AAT Kings Cairns tour. This will take the pressure out of planning your holiday, with the itinerary ensuring you see all the best Cairns has to offer.

What is the most scenic place in Cairns?

Cairns is located right on the coast of the world-famous Great Barrier Reef, and many tours in Cairns begin with a cruise into the waves. The reef is beautiful, stretching along over 2000km of coastline. A Great Barrier Reef tour can be anything from a half day tour in a glass bottom boat to the outer reef, to a full day snorkel or diving cruise. Cairns is also a common staging area for Daintree Rainforest tours. Perfect for those who want to explore the natural world while staying on dry land, the Daintree Rainforest is around 100km north of the city, and a prime destination for a day trip from Cairns. No visit to Cairns is complete without seeing both these incredible destinations, so book the best Cairns tours with AAT Kings to make sure you don't miss out on anything Cairns has on offer.
