Our 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.
We guarantee you’ll see a koala or two, a mob of kangaroo, and many species of bird. If conditions are right you may also see pademelon, echidna, tawny frogmouth and water dragons. Along the way you will be amazed at the abundant birdlife.

Our tour with Wendy was great. We saw everything advertised and more. It was so refreshing seeing the wildlife in its natural setting as opposed to zoos and private refuges. Lunch was very good as well. But, the best part was Wendy's enthusiasm and knowledge. We learned so much. Thanks Wendy!!!

We saw 8 koalas just chilling in the trees, some of us shifting around to watch us. And seeing so many kangaroos and walllabies was awesome. Wendy was informative and kind and delivered on everything she promised.
