Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: You Yangs Regional Park, Turntable Drive Little River, Victoria 3211 Australia

The park is home to a healthy population of wild Koalas, which we research and monitor to ensure the best possible sightings. We take a very easy walk through the gum trees, searching for koalas, wallabies, kangaroos and birds in their natural setting. Your Wildlife Guide will introduce you to each koala as an individual, with a history, social life and family. You will learn all about these threatened mammals, and probably have some great photographic opportunities.

We stop for 5 minutes to remove some noxious weeds to improve Koala habitat and contribute our efforts to our not for profit Koala Clancy Foundation.

The granite rock formations of the You Yangs staged huge meetings of Aboriginal People from all over southeastern Australia. Many signs of their occupation still remain. Your Guide will share their knowledge with you. Though we may not be meeting any Aboriginal People on this tour, we act with the knowledge, consent and support of the Wathaurong Community.

Duration: 3 hours

Stop At: Serendip Sanctuary, Lara, City of Greater Geelong, Victoria 3212 Australia

Leaving the You Yangs, we travel just 10 minutes to Serendip wetlands national park. Often our entrance is heralded by the screeching of Cockatoos or the chattering of Honeyeaters. We drive, then walk through the gum trees and across grasslands in search of wild mobs of Eastern Grey Kangaroos.

Kangaroos are most active in the cool of dusk, and mobs that may have been hiding during the day will start to come out onto the grasslands to feed. They also get quite frisky at this time of day, and its most likely we will see hopping, fighting and interaction between members of the mob.

We also look out for curious Emus and take a short walk to the billabong to watch waterbirds settling down for the night.

Duration: 2 hours
