Questions about this product
Do I need a car in Cairns?
Not for the centre, where many trips are short walks. For the Atherton Tablelands a hire car or a tour is the usual choice; for reef and island days your operator's meeting point decides.
What is happening with Skyrail in Cairns?
At the time of research (1 October 2026) Skyrail reported a Kuranda–Barron Falls circuit from Wednesday to Sunday plus shuttle solutions during upgrade works until 1 November. Don't plan a normal full cableway ride from Smithfield without confirming operation for your date.
What if the weather changes my plans?
Changed weather is one of the six situations in the kit, next to an unclear pickup and a plan that got too full, each with a clear next step. A dry sky on land doesn't guarantee a calm sea, so don't put your most important reef day on your last day.
Does it work offline?
Yes, as a PDF on your device. Live timetables and maps still need internet.
