Description

Hand-feed kangaroos + iconic beach boxes in one morning. This half day morning tour is perfect to see Australia's unique wildlife in a place that gives you a more memorable experience and also a visit to Brighton Beach to see the famous beach boxes where you will have time to take photos. Continue with a drive to Moonlit Sanctuary. Spend approximately 2 hours in Moonlit Sanctuary and learn about koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, dingoes, wombats, Tasmanian devils and many more in a natural setting. We expect to arrive at around 10AM, this gives you the advantage of being early at the sanctuary and depending on weather conditions a better experience as the animals would be more active earlier before the temperature rises. Last drive to Melbourne and drop off at central meeting point in Southbank by 1.00 PM. This small-group tour is limited to 11 people, ensuring a more personalized experience.
