Few places on earth can match the beauty and sophistication of a Tropical North Queensland holiday - where the rainforest meets the reef. This 7 day adventure is part of the Great Tropical Drive and will take you to the very best of the tropics.
Take to the water and explore the natural attraction of the Great Barrier Reef. Head north to the glamorous seaside village of Port Douglas on your way to the superb tropical rainforest of the Daintree-Cape Tribulation coast - the only place in the world where two World Heritage areas exist side by side.
Continue on your tropical journey through the rolling countryside of the Cairns Highlands and finally relax and enjoy the palm-fringed southern beaches - each day revealing a new picture postcard.
