Wildlife tours around Healesville

Eco-friendly activity

Healesville Sanctuary, Melissa Krafchek

Most of Australia’s marsupials and many other animals are most active at dusk or after dark. Guided, night-walking tours are therefore one of the best ways to see many wild animals, and the eco-accredited Eco-Adventure Tours, based in Healesville, specialises in night tours, although the company offers day trips as well. On a night stroll you are likely to see bats, yellow-bellied and greater gliders, owls, wombats, wallabies and possums.
