Great guided wildlife tour. - Very interesting tour with friendly and knowlegable guide. We saw koalas up close and learned a lot. Highly recommended.

Great tour to see Koalas and other wildlife up close in their natural environment. - The tour was part minibus, part walking. Josh the guide was extremely informative and made it a lot of fun. We learned a lot about the wildlife and we got to see things we would have probably missed. Definitely a tour worth doing and good value for money.

Excellent koala in their natural habitat tour. - Great tour, booked only the night before, glad we did. You can do the trip on the way to or back from Flinders Chase National park. Very knowledgeable guide on all things koalas, kangaroos, other wild animals and the local vegetation. Saw numerous koalas, some with joeys and a large male, along with kangaroos including a rather large male. Part of the trip is done in the minibus to get you to locations, the rest on foot. At the end we were giving a very informative short talk on the fire of 4 years ago with footage, along with interesting artefact’s collected on the estate. Well worth calling in and doing.

Go for it - The guide knew all about the Koalas and there beloved Trees, Kangaroos, the history of the Island and that not enough was interested in his customers!

Informative and interesting - This is an excellent wildlife guided walk and tour . Our guide Josh was very knowledgeable the walk is easy and relaxed. True wild animals, as always , are tricky to spot but Josh located several koalas , wallabies, kangaroos, geese and a Tiger snake as well as numerous birds etc His explanations about the effects of the bush fire both on the animals and the flora were really informative and fascinating. We also had a short drive to see some of the wildlife. The group was small and informal. You have to book in advance.

Great guided tour! - We went on the guided koala tour, which we would highly recommend. The walk and drive through the sanctuary was great and we got to see both kangaroos, Cape Bareen geese and ofcourse a good handful of koalas. We were especially pleased that we got to spend a lot of time observing the koalas in their natural habitat; eating and admittedly sleeping quite a bit. Josh was extremely passionated and very friendly, so the walk was not just interesting but also very entertaining.

Koala walk - Fantastic tour... we saw so much more than was planned. Jim is a wealth of knowledge and I recommend everyone visit.

What a unique experience - We were the only two at the sanctuary at that time so had our own private walk with Jim explaining in depth about the animals, their habitat , behaviours etc . We saw the effect the fires earlier in the year had impacted on the area and the animals who required the various habitats to survive. Jim pointed out a little Joey sleeping in a tree, cape barren geese, their nests and eggs that had hatched , a mob of wallabies resting in the bush etc and the various food sources used by the animals and birds . He showed us the fencing required to keep out predators which was expensive and had to be replaced after a number of yrs. Many koalas were lost in the fires and , as the only virus free survivors were very minimal it is so important to support the work that this sanctuary is doing so visitors are crucial . Be aware however the cafe and souvenir shop were also burnt in the fires so these facilities are not available at the moment

Wonderful Sanctuary Guided Tour - We did a Guided Koala Walk and Bush Fire Ecology Tour. This was fantastic. Our tour guide was very friendly, extremely knowledgeable and informative about the flora and fauna. We were lucky to be the only two for the tour, so our guide was able to drive us to parts of the sanctuary that we wouldn't have made on foot. We saw Koala's, Wallabies and Kangaroo's with their Joey's and Cape Barren Geese. We were also able to see the hundred's of amazing Xanthorrhoea in full bloom. It was wonderful to witness the beautiful re-growth after such devastation. Highly recommend to anyone travelling to KI.

A Big Disappointment! - We were not able to take this excursion. We arrived on the island on a cruise which docked on the opposite side of the island than the excursion meeting point. I called the excursion provider and they informed me we were 75 minutes away from the meeting point. They did not provide a pick up or any transportation. There were no taxis, Ubers or buses on the island. No refund was offered or provided by the excursion provider. Disappointing.
