Information you can follow.

Research here means checking information used in our visitor guidance and cultural writing. It does not mean that Apollonaut runs a laboratory, employs an academic research department or has completed original scientific studies.

For opening hours, admission, timetables and the park’s history, the first source is Rainforestation’s own website. For the village of Kuranda we used a general reference that cites its sources. All can be read directly through the links provided.

1. 01

   Start with the relevant source

   Use the attraction for its own visitor rules, animals and history. Use an identified reference for dates and other facts.

2. 02

   Keep time-sensitive details dated

   Prices, opening hours, holiday closures and eligibility can change. A past arrangement or old tariff must not become a current promise.

3. 03

   Separate fact from interpretation

   A sourced date is different from an editorial impression. Make the distinction clear in the writing.

4. 04

   Keep uncertainty visible

   If sources disagree or a detail is unverified, omit the claim or explain the limit. The park’s pages give its closing time as both 15:30 and 16:00, and its fleet as eleven Army Ducks in 2005 and twelve today; we give its current figures.

A starting price, an attraction’s own admission price and the total charged for a booking are different figures. A useful comparison must identify the same access, visitor category, date, currency and included fees.

Our prices are in Australian dollars and include our service fee, so they are higher than Rainforestation Nature Park’s own prices. We do not claim the lowest price or publish a market comparison.

• How our service works→

The aim is to make source links and meaningful updates easy to find. A material correction should explain what changed rather than quietly leaving contradictory information elsewhere on the site.

The heritage and history copy was checked against the reading links below on 10 November 2026. This date records that review; it is not a guarantee that future opening hours or admission rules will remain the same.
