Overview

As the sun sets over the hills of the Otways, potoroos, bandicoots, pademelons and more are waking up and starting their active nights of feeding and foraging. And you can spot them as they emerge for the evening on our Dusk Discovery Wildlife Tours.

On this small, intimate, 90-minute tour, your conservationist guide will give you exclusive insights into the lives of some of the more elusive and rarely seen animals who call the Otways home, plus spectacular sunset photo opportunities.

The experience includes a mezze plate of local delights with beer or wine. (n.b. our kitchen team will need 24hrs to cater for any specific dietary requirements).

Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the departure time listed on your confirmation ticket and allow 2 hours for the experience. 

This tour is for participants aged 10 and up, and is limited to 10 people per tour. The tour winds along a gentle, 1.4km path suitable for all ages and abilities.

Wildlife Wonders reserves the right to cancel dusk tours depending on weather and visitor numbers.

We recommend visitors arrive at least 20 minutes before the start of their tour. The Great Ocean Road is often busy, and travel times can be longer than anticipated. If running late, please call ahead so options can be discussed. All efforts will be made to accommodate visitors on subsequent tours, but this cannot be guaranteed.

Good to know

We recommend wearing comfortable, enclosed walking shoes. In summer we recommend bringing sunscreen and wearing a hat. In winter it is recommended to bring a warm jacket. It can rain at any time of the year in the Otway Ranges, so it’s best to be prepared with a rainproof jacket.
