Go do it. - Ryan picked us up from our accommodation and drove us to the property where the tour operates. Absolutely amazing tour. Saw and fed kangaroos, quendas and possums. We were treated to bush tea and a ride home was included. So much fun. I recommend dressing for the weather and bushwalking.

Brilliant evening - This was a fantastic experience. It was only myself and my two daughters this evening. Ryan knows his stuff and the kids had an absolute blast. It was so lovely to feed the kangaroos and get up (respectfully) close with a couple of possums. Saw loads of frogs and spiders, quendas and heard all the tales of the roos who came up. Highly recommend. My daughter wants to give it a million stars

Definitely do it! - Can’t recommend this more! The nocturnal animal tour was “20 times better than expected” according to another family on our tour (which we agreed with). The animals like kangaroos, bandicoots and possums came so close. We had an impromptu star gazing tour as well. Mick and Ryan are knowledgeable, fun, and responsive to the kids’ many questions. They serve hot chocolate and cookies, too. Definitely do it.

A truly magical night under the stars - Had the most amazing evening with Ryan on the nocturnal wildlife tour. Ryan collected us from our accommodation and transported us to Yelverton Brook Conservation Park. We started with a brief walk to a small clearing in the forest. Along the way Ryan described some of the trees and bushes. Upon arriving at the clearing this is where the real magic began. There are no guarantees as to which animals will come and see you here but we were really very lucky with Bandicoots and around a dozen Kangaroos joining us - it was amazing! We then carried on deeper into the forest were we looked at other vegetation and hunted for various spiders. Ryan was also able to point of many star constellations as we walked too. It was a truly wonderful night and is something neither myself or my wife will ever forget.

A unique, fun for the whole family experience! - Wow! What an experience! Our entire family had an amazing time interacting with several nocturnal species, learning about the native vegetation, and spectacular star gazing . The guides, Mic and Ryan, are engaging, informative, and passionate. The tour concludes with a 30-minute walk through the bush. The terrain is flat and not physically challenging; however, for young children, they might tire. So keep this in mind when planning: consider a backpack carrier for toddlers and an afternoon rest for the kiddos who don’t love a long walk. We would book this tour again and again! Thank you, Mic and Ryan!
