Enjoy a 3-hour private, premium tour of Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary just as the creatures of the night come alive! Your lead guide will be a member of the management or one of the lead guides. Sip on a glass of Tasmanian sparkling wine or fruit juice upon arrival and head over to see curious Aussie wildlife in their natural waking hours. Pat and hand-feed incredible Tasmanian species such as tawny frogmouths, sugar gliders, wombats, and kangaroos. Your guide will tell you about the elusive and little-known Tasmanian microbat; you might even get to see them flitting across the sky, or be able to track their movements on an interactive iPad tracking app! Meet some Tasmanian devils too, learn their names and discover fun facts about this endangered species. Feed one a snack and snap a photo from less than a meter away! You will also have other amazing face-to-face photo opportunities of rarely seen wildlife. Learn about the perils that the native wildlife face on a day-to-day basis and what you can do to help.
