Whether you’re keen to spot monstrous crocodiles or marvel at wobbling wombats, we’ve got the ultimate wildlife adventure for you.

“I did the rock 2 water tour last week. It was a great trip and I found my new favorite part of Australia! Sleeping under the stars and experiencing the magic of Uluru is definitely something you shouldn't miss. Thanks Shane for being such an amazing tour guide I learnd a lot about the Aboriginal culture and enjoyed the jam sesions in the car.”

“I cant recommend Groovy grapes enough, by far the BEST tour company i have travelled with. From a fun filled day on the Barossa valley to the rock tour experience i will never forget. Both guides (Jerry then Jase) were extremely passionate about their jobs passing on as much local info as they could and having lots of laughs along the way. The itineraries were great and certainly packed in as much as there was to offer, you definitely get your money's worth out of these tours. I will treasure the memories made which will stay with me forever, Big love Groovy Grapes.”

Highlights of Australia Wildlife Tours
Snorkel with friendly sea turtles and flapping mantas in the Great Barrier Reef. As a nifty bonus, you’ll get to admire the largest and most spectacular coral reef on Earth.
Rub shoulders with oddly hopping marsupials (and other curious critters) at Kangaroo Island. Any guesses as to how this wildlife-rich island obtained its name?
Say hello to wandering wombats, bouncing pademelon, and the elusive Tassie Devil on a wildlife-spotting trip through Tasmania. As you’d imagine, the scenery here is stunning, too.
Gawk in awe (or would that be horror?) at a gigantic crocodile while on a river cruise in Kakadu.
Whip out your binoculars and hone in on an array of colorful avian species in the Kimberly, Australia’s top bird-watching destination.
Travel Tips for Australia Wildlife Tours
Observe from a safe distance. Even Australia’s cutest mammals (such as koalas and kangaroos) may attack when provoked.
Don’t feed the animals unless instructed to in a zoo. Feeding wild animals causes them to become dependent on humans and creates numerous health issues.
Bring a telescopic lens for the perfect photo op. Some Australian animals are skittish and hard to approach, while others may become defensive if you get too close.
Wear appropriate clothing. Some wildlife tours in Australia entail long periods exposed to the elements, so it’s best to come prepared.
Keep your arms inside the boat at all times while on a river cruise to spot giant crocs.
