Wildlife Safari
Overview
Come with them to see Australian wildlife in the wild – not a zoo or sanctuary.
Their Wildlife Safari takes you to three different habitats near Byron Bay.
You’ll visit eucalyptus forest, rainforest and grassland to discover the animals that live there.
They guarantee you’ll see a koala or two, a mob of kangaroo, a whole colony of flying fox and many species of bird. If conditions are right you may also see pademelon, echidna, tawny frogmouth and water dragons.
You will travel in their comfortable eight-seater 4WD with an environmental scientist as your guide. For lunch? A picnic of locally-sourced goodness.
On this tour they travel to where the animals live so it involves a bit of driving. They start with a 45-minute drive to their first stop and end the day with a one-hour drive back to Byron Bay. In between there are short drives and walks.
