Perth Wildlife Tour Under the Stars with Dinner

The Dryandra Woodlands is a biodiversity hotspot containing more than 850 species of plants, more than 100 species of birds and 24 mammals, including the endangered numbat and bilby. The woodlands provide refuge for some of our unique Australian animals including echidnas, brush tailed wallabies, woylies, quendas and chuditch. Upon arrival at the woodlands, you will have time for a short bush walk, looking for native animals and stunning wildflowers in season before sitting down for a picnic dinner in the forest. Your guide will cook some food on the barbeque, there will be fresh salads, cheese and biscuits, wine and hot drinks available. After dinner, enjoy a scenic drive through the forest as the sunlight filters through the branches of the trees, casting long shadows and a flickering light creating a magical effect on the forest floor. Keep an eye out for the many kangaroos in the area as they dodge and weave their way through the trees.

Barna Mia is a unique wildlife sanctuary for some of our endangered mammals. The guides will provide a short talk and video explaining the conservation work done at Barna Mia. Then you head in to the sanctuary for a guided night walk where we sit and wait for the night creatures of Barna Mia to appear. Before long, you will be entertained by the animals of Barna Mia as they emerge from the darkness in their search for food.

To complete the tour, we do a stop just out of the woodlands to do a bit of stargazing. The guide will point out some of the objects visible in the night sky for you and you will have time to take a few photos of the night sky. The Dryandra region has some of the darkest skies in Australia, perfect for seeing the milky way and shooting stars.
