This trip was absolutely amazing. My whole goal was to see kangaroos in the wild. And the day didn't disappoint. 2 minutes into our walk we spotted a little group. We seen approximately a dozen plus on our walk. The whole day was filled with great information about wildlife and Australia. My guide Anita was friendly, informative, and was able to answer all my questions.
Lots of kangaroos!!

We had a wonderful day with Anita. She picked us up directly from the cruise pier to start the tour. It was fabulous to see kangaroos in the wild as well as some of the beautiful coastline and outlying villages. We had some delicious fish and chips at a casual beachside lunch spot before heading back. Anita is very knowledgeable and professional, as well as personable. I highly recommend her tour.
Fine tour in interesting area

We had a great experience with Anita showing us the wildlife, natural phenomena, and coastal neighborhoods in the area north of Brisbane. Conditions were less than ideal after quite heavy recent rains but four kangaroos showed up for us. Anita pointed out numerous birds and also discussed the aquatic fauna. She spoke of the beneficial properties of the three types of mangroves. We had a pleasant drive through Brighton, Margate, and Redcliffe and a very casual lunch in a bakery cafe. Anita is very personable and attuned to the desires of her clients. We would only have wished for a little more legroom in the Nissan! Great tour and we highly recommend it.
A great day away from the City

This nature tour was a wonderful private tour. Just the two of us and Anita, the owner of the company. She was fantastic. She gave us a wonderful outdoor nature experience out in the wetlands of the mangroves where we also saw several wild kangaroos roaming around. Experienced a couple of them hoping off really fast in front of us. So cool. She also gave us an education on the flora and fauna on our walk. Saw an Osprey nest with a live camera on their chick at the Osprey Center and learned a lot about these birds from the docents who volunteer there. Lunch was wonderful near the water along the coast. I highly recommend doing this tour with Anita. She used to be a park ranger.
Most excellent!

This tour was fantastic! Loved being in nature with a former park ranger and you really can't beat the custom tour without the crowds! Kangaroos made an awesome showing!!!

The Wetlands walk was just lovely, calm, beautiful and benefited from seeing a fair few Kangaroos. Lunch at The Tempest was fantastic. The ocean journey back was also interesting seeing life outside of Brisbane
Trails are very walkable with plenty of natural sights and beautiful wild life.

It was wonderful to see the kangaroos. Anita went out of her way to help her have a fantastic tour. If we were staying longer in Brisbane, we would take another of her tours.
Awesome private wildlife tour

I would highly recommend this tour, either from a cruise ship pick up or hotel. Anita was great! Picking us up from the cruise port terminal and driving just the two of us around the suburbs of Brisbane. The kangaroo safari was fun, seeing several wild kangaroos in their natural habitat. Visiting the river with many different birds and Osprey. Driving around the cute little beach towns, and having a great lunch outside. If you like private tours, this is the one!
Kangaroos in the wild!

It was a great thrill to see kangaroos in the wild. There were far more than we had expected to see. We were able to get close enough to see them very clearly.The tour was informative and fun.
