What to expect

Expect a slow-paced meander through bushland with frequent stops to locate and observe koalas up close. Your guide uses their photography expertise to explain animal habits, seasonal patterns and the station's conservation efforts. Much of the tour involves scanning trees and open areas, binoculars useful. You'll cover rough station tracks at a relaxed pace, with breaks for refreshments.
