Enjoy a zoologist-designed overview of Australia's major wildlife groups, their ecology and behaviour, the evolutionary/biogeographical reasons Australia is so different from other world regions, and what makes the Scenic Rim such a special part of our continent. Visit wonderfully scenic wild places. View wildlife in rainforests, eucalypt forests, wetlands, wild coasts and other native habitats, plus a wildlife park run by National Parks. All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Seek kangaroos, koalas, platypus, kookaburras and other icons as well as lesser-known creatures. See a colony of large and noisy fruit bats and watch for dolphins from coastal cliffs. Receive a custom-written book on Australia's wildlife detailing the major groups, some of the plant groups important to them and an overview of the evolutionary/ geological history of Australia. Spend two nights in the Kooralbyn Valley resort which is visited by wild kangaroos, many birds and occasionally koalas. Advanced eco-certification. With sufficient notice this tour can be extended to four days to allow other experiences such as whale-watching (in winter), snorkelling, horse-riding or Aboriginal culture.
