Don’t miss this ! - We had an amazing tour on Sunday September 28 at 10 AM; our guide, unfortunately I can’t remember her name, was personable, knowledgeable, and very committed to the mission of the company. Would highly recommend!

Australian Sanctuary tour with our Berliner cousins - We enjoyed our afternoon tour with Sasha. Thanks Erin for your recommendation. The leisurely stroll around the sanctuary provided us with many glimpses of Australian wildlife. 10/10

An Inspiring Guided Walk among Native Fauna in the Otways - An extraordinary experience and a visionary initiative. We had a very well-informed guide (Alyssa) who shared her passion with the group. To see potoroos, wallabies, kangaroos, koalas and emus all in their natural environment rather than behind wire, was inspiring. This is an extremely high-quality tour, well worth the money. The information is pitched at an accessible level while backed up by expertise and research. To know that the proceeds go to support the Conservation Ecology Centre is so gratifying. This was by far the highlight of our visit to the Otways.

Our wonderful walk with wildlife - Cannot recommend this tour enough. It had everything and created memories for our family we will remember forever. As soon as you arrive there is everything you could need to make the experience wonderful. We were beyond appreciative of the kids corner which had things like social stories and calming spaces for our kids to become comfortable with the experience. Things like this are priceless when you have ASD kids in attendance. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much.

A fantastic opportunity to see animals in their natural habitat. Well worth a visit. - We are 8 friends travelling around Australia whilst supporting the British and Irish Lions Rugby tour. This place caught our attention as it offered the opportunity to see animals in their natural habitat and not enclosures. We were not disappointed. Our guide Erin was very knowledgeable and great fun. She had us all spotting wildlife in no time. There were 16 in our groups and she managed it very well by making sure that we all had the opportunity to see the animals. We saw plenty of koalas, kangaroos, pademelons, emus and wallabies. The wallabies here were a lot happier than those we had seen on the rugby pitch a few days earlier! We ate at the centre and the food was excellent. It was freshly cooked and reasonably priced. I highly recommend this place to see native animals in their natural habitat. All the staff were kind and helpful. The kit they give you is in excellent condition and the boardwalks and pathways are well maintained. This is a great place to visit.

An excellent tour - The tour was excellent led by a very enthusiastic guide. She ensured that everyone was able to see the animals we encountered, which included Kangaroos, Wallabies, Koalas, Dolphins, an Emu and Pademelons. We were very pleased that we chose to do this.
