I’m Chloé — and this time, my sister Renée has bravely agreed to join me on one of the most famous train trips in Australia: the Kuranda Scenic Railway up through the ancient rainforest of Far North Queensland. This ride is not your average commute. Think: INSANE waterfalls pouring down cliff faces, vintage carriages winding through tunnels carved by hand, and rainforest views so good you’ll forget about your phone for a second (but soon remember you're filming a travel video, and quickly grab it just in time for another waterfall outside). And then — just when you think it can’t get more epic — we hop on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway and literally float above the canopy. Renée has never done anything like this before, and watching her go from “umm, why are we doing this?” to “oh my gosh this is stunning” was honestly the best part. Sisters + trains + treetops = wholesomeness. 💛 ✨ What to expect in this episode: • The most scenic rainforest railway in Australia 🚂 • Barron Falls in all its thundering glory 🌊 • 120-year-old heritage train carriages with all the charm • A Skyrail ride with glass-floor gondolas (Renée was not prepared 😂) • Markets, Japanese coffee shops and rainforest walks in Kuranda village If you’re into scenic trains, rainforest magic, or watching sisters awkwardly bond mid-air, this one’s for you. 🎟️ Want to plan your own trip?

I’m Chloé — a Kiwi travel creator exploring the world one awkward train moment at a time. My husband Ludvig (dry humour, Swedish passport) joins when he can. Together, we seek out the quirkiest journeys, comfiest cabins, and always squeeze in a touch of luxury when we can (okay, that part’s mostly my idea 😅). We’re all about making travel fun, relatable, and a little bit weird — with a side of scenic magic. 💛 Some links are affiliate, which means we might earn a small commission (at no extra cost to you). It helps keep the adventures going — and pays for coffee when the train café runs out of it. And honestly? Every time you use one, it triggers a little happy dance on my end. 🕺 So thank you!
