Cairns in Tropical North Queensland is renowned for the Great Barrier Reef and World Heritage Rainforest. Without doubt it is Australia's extreme adventure capital - especially for white water rafting, which is one of the most exciting and fun way to discover the pristine rainforest. The Barron River is North Queensland’s most exciting half day tour. Feel the rush of white water rafting within the awesome wilderness of Australia’s tropical rainforests. Experience a half day of white-water rafting with R’n’R where you will negotiate the Grade 3 famous “Rooster-Tail” rapid and paddle through the majestic scenery of the Barron Gorge National Park. Our half day rafting option is great for groups, incentives and beginners and combines readily with other popular North Queensland adventure tours like hot air ballooning.
