What are the BEST day tours in Cairns, Australia?

Question by lovekoalas: What are the BEST day tours in Cairns, Australia?
I will be in Cairns for 3 days and I want to see and do as much as possible. We think the best options are day tours, any suggestions? We want ones that help us see a lot without feeling rushed and aren't super expensive. We also want to make sure we go to a place where we can hold a Koala.

    Skyrail & Kuranda Wildlife Experience! it includes entry to the Kuranda Koala Gardens, Birdworld and the Australian Butterfly Sanctuary. – info is: http://www.skyrail.com.au/packages.html
    They will even pick you up from your motel/hotel.

    Also there is a Cairns Tropical Zoo – 20 mins from the city, have a photo taken while cuddling a koala – (or snake LOL) http://www.wildworld-aus.com.au

    Then a day trip out to the reef or Green island for some snorking on the reef to find nemo! http://www.quicksilver-cruises.com
