CAIRNS CITY

When you arrive in Cairns, the first thing you'll wonder is:- "How do I find out where everything is?"

My Town Tours provides a short and informative guided bus tour of Cairns to help you 'get your bearings'.

Your orientation City Sights Tour begins when you board the air-conditioned bus at your accommodation. You will see places of history, where the main tours depart from and an idea of where the major shops, restaurants and markets are placed.

After a brief overview of the early days of the region, you will then tour past major places of interest including city, industrial and some residential areas on your way to Campbell's Lookout for a panoramic view over the city.

Next is the spectacular Botanic Gardens. In 1888, Eugene Fitzalan, a botanical collector established a nursery near the present site of the Botanic Gardens and opened his gardens to the public. In 1971 the Cairns City Council named Flecker Botanic Gardens, in honour of Dr. Hugo Flecker, the founder of the North Queensland Naturalist Club and Flecker Herbarium.

The gardens consist of a collection of tropical rainforest plants of both Australian native and exotic origins. Among the attractions are a Fernery, Orchid House, Aboriginal Plant Use Section, as well as Palms, Heliconia, Ginger, Bamboo, Tropical fruits, and flowering trees, shrubs and vines.

Your tour ends when you are returned to your accommodation in Cairns.

Inclusions:

  • Return accommodation transfers
  • Local Informative Guide
  • Visit to Botanic Gardens
  • Entry to Royal Flying Doctor Service Visitor Centre (not open on Sundays)

Departures:
Cairns – 2 pm daily
