Wildlife Surrounds - 2026 Tours

🌿 Welcome to Wildlife Surrounds...

Step into the landscape and experience Australian wildlife in a way that is grounded in science, respect, and genuine connection.

This is an immersive, small-group experience where you’ll explore natural environments, learn to read the signs of wildlife, and gain a deeper understanding of the ecosystems around you.

🐾 What to expect

• Guided wilderness walks through natural bushland and along freshwater creeks, learning to notice the subtle signs of wildlife along the way.

• Opportunities to observe wildlife moving freely through their natural habitat

• Spend time with our resident ambassador wildlife, including dingoes and reptiles, who call Wildlife Surrounds their forever home

• Insight into Wildlife Surrounds’ conservation work and future vision

Our dingoes and reptiles are long-term residents who cannot return to the wild and now play an important role in helping people understand their true behaviour, and role in our natural environment.

Each experience is shaped by the environment on the day—no two tours are the same.
