    The tour is fantastic. We had a great guide, Sarah, who guided us around the paths and helped us understand the animals and plants. We saw wallabies, koalas, emus, kangaroos and a pademelon which was amazing. It is so great to do with a family. The cafe was good too.

    Interesting & informative, Alex took a group of about 10 for our stroll along a walking track which was suitable for all fitness levels and ages. Alex spoke eloquently, with amazing excitement and enthusiasm for someone whose professionalism shone - she had probably done this before & more than once! Friendly and outgoing, she happily pointed out all sorts of intriguing things along the way and patiently answered our questions. I learned a lot - who knew that emus have a stomach called a gizzard for pebbles that they swallow, which assist the breakdown of seeds and twigs? Not me, until now!!! We saw numerous koalas, Pademelon (who were more interested in making more Pademelons than us!), Wallabies, Bush Rats, Emus & a Bandicoot. Time passed quickly , I’d happily do it again, anyday.

    Informative and enjoyable walk with an opportunity for many sitings of wildlife. The length of the walk was appropriate and we were given chance to ask questions

    The wall was a very enjoyable time for my partner and I, we got to see wallabies, many koalas potaroos and swamp rats. The tour guide Nicole was lovely, very knowledgeable and made the tour exciting for all.
