With stunning bushland surrounding Sydney you don't have to go far to experience the uniqueness of Australia's native bush and wildlife - but you do have to know where to look. Join our Naturalist Guides on Sydney's most exclusive wildlife tour in search of Australia's iconic birds and animals.
Small, personalised groups (maximum 7 passengers) travel in luxury 4WD vehicles to the Southern Highlands (90 minutes from Sydney) in a tour designed for those who really want to see and understand Australia's wildlife in its natural bush surrounds.
With the help of a knowledgeable and passionate Naturalist Guide you'll search for Australia's charismatic megafauna, including kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, wombats, emus, possums, gliders and platypus. Birdlife includes distinctive parrots, bowerbirds, kookaburras and the unique Lyrebird, known as the Bush Mimic. Click here to learn more about the wildlife you'll see.
Our Koala walks take us through stands of towering Grey Gums - one of the koala's favourite food sources - with stunning cliff-top views. In the late afternoon we join the grazing kangaroos, emus and wombats as they venture into the clearings to feed. At dusk, roam the shores of the Wingecarribee River in search of platypus.
Throughout the day short walks will take you through a range of environments from temperate rainforest to escarpments, and classic eucalypt forests known endemically as 'The Bush'. Naturally, we never know what we'll find each day, but you're certain not to be disappointed. Click here to learn more about the environments we travel in.
These highly personalised tours are designed for small groups only, letting us get up close to the wildlife without disturbing it. Our small group size, maximum 7 travellers, also allow us to tailor an itinerary to take advantage of all the day has to offer, and to best suit our travellers' interests.

We travel in comfortable 4WD vehicles, customised for the best wildlife viewing experience - with roomy, comfortable seats, onboard field guides, maps and binoculars. As much of Australia's fauna is nocturnal, at dusk the Bush comes alive and we're ready to explore it with spotlights and torches (flashlights). A retractable sunroof provides great viewing at all levels, while an onboard TV/DVD is linked up to a 25x zoom video that allows the Guide to zoom in on the wildlife so you don't miss a thing.
