Wildlife & Birding Experiences

Tasmania is fortunate to have some of the best wildlife and bird guides in Australia so those who enjoy a private guided experience can benefit from the expertise of those who have dedicated their lives to studying Tasmania's endemic animals and birds. With some careful itinerary planning there is no reason why it isn’t possible to see all Tasmania’s wonderful creatures and birds in their natural habitat.

Even the endangered Tasmanian Devil and elusive Duck-Billed Platypus can be seen by our guests on a self-drive tour with careful planning and a bit of patience. However, due to the diverse ecology and diverse habitats, many of the species are only found in certain regions of Tasmania, and even where they can be found in abundance, you still need to know where and when to go.

As well as those with limited mobility can get 'up close and personal' with mammals, birds and reptiles in as natural an environment as possible. There are also some world-class wildlife sanctuaries which are dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and releasing wildlife, and to educating others, locals and visitors alike, about the need to be vigilant and responsible.
