Venture beyond the city to see iconic Australian wildlife in the wild
The rolling countryside of the Southern Highlands provides the perfect backdrop for a day of wildlife spotting, just 90 minutes south of Sydney. This is a chance to escape the city and immerse yourself in nature, discovering Australia’s unique animals in their natural habitat.
We shape the day around recent wildlife sightings, weather conditions, and your interests to ensure the best experience. Spend the afternoon exploring different locations, looking for kookaburras, cockatoos, colourful parrots, and even emus, while learning about local conservation efforts.
As dusk falls, kangaroos and wombats emerge to graze, and with a bit of luck, you might spot a platypus. After sunset, venture into the bush with red-tinted spotlights to search for nocturnal wildlife, including possums and sugar gliders in the treetops.
Enjoy a relaxed dinner at a historic country pub before the return journey to Sydney. With no fixed schedule, the day unfolds naturally, ensuring the best possible wildlife encounters. Return to your hotel in the evening, having experienced an authentic Australian wildlife adventure, with memories of close encounters and a deeper appreciation for the country’s extraordinary biodiversity.
