Description
Set out from Byron Bay for a Wildlife Safari that gets you right amongst the real Australian bush. Your adventure takes you across Eucalyptus Forest, lush Rainforest and sweeping grasslands, seeking out the creatures that call these places home. From koalas snoozing up high to roos hanging out in a mob, you'll be spotting Aussie icons in the wild, not behind glass.
Along the way, keep your eyes peeled for flying foxes by the colony, colourful parrots, kookaburras, magpies and flitting wrens. If nature's feeling cheeky, you might even see a pademelon, echidna, tawny frogmouth or a water dragon. Our guides are passionate about wildlife and will help you tune into every feather, fur and scale.
The day kicks off with a 45-minute drive to your first stop, with a series of short drives and gentle walks through stunning surrounds. We keep things relaxed and eco-friendly, journeying in either an eight-seater hybrid or a roomy 12-seater bus, depending on the crew size. No rushing; just good company, plenty of nature and a few laughs along the way.
Come lunchtime, we roll out a picnic of locally sourced, tasty Aussie fare. Let us know if you've got dietary needs when you book. This award-winning eco tour is all about looking, not touching; observing wildlife where they belong and leaving only footprints behind.
