What To Expect
Cape Hillsborough National Park
The most picturesque time to see the wallabies on the beach at Cape Hillsborough is at Sunrise. Get up close and personal with these iconic Australian marsupials, waking up early is worth it! Learn and reflect on our role in preserving and protecting Australia's natural beauty with your local guide. We arrive at the national park at dawn to catch a glimpse of the wallabies that come to the shoreline to feed on mangrove seed pods washed up by the tide. Spend time walking along the beach and taking in all the beauty of the sunrise. Our air-conditioned bus allows a comfortable adventure in a small group environment as we take you to explore the Cape Hillsborough National Park, where the rainforest meets the sea.

5.00Expectations met, we met at 3am and arrived after an hour drive while the animals were already at the beach and we observed them until they left after their breakfast after 5am. Than we walked to the lookouts in the national park and had our breakfast at 7am. Thanks to our lovely tourguide Michelle. I would definitely do it again🦘🙌🏽

Not advisible kangaroo trip

2.00This trip is far, far to expensive for what you get. It is just a taxi drive to the beach where the kangeroos are, with a very simple breakfest after feeding the kangeroos. We where back in town 8 am in stead of the anounced 9 am. It is not well organised
Fab tour!

5.00This is a nice Tour. Michelle is very knowledgeable and a great communicator. The day was cloudy and a little windy so it was quite dark for photos but the wallabies and kangaroos still treated us with a visit. I enjoyed my morning there. A short hike up to the lookout was very nice and Michelle spitting out facts about the surrounding was very interesting. A little snacky breakfast was also provided.
Magic time with kangaroos

She’s super friendly, open, and has such a warm personality. I felt really comfortable the whole time. She shared super interesting facts in a fun and understandable way – never boring for a second!
