It is renowned for its strange and wonderful critters. From making friends with a wombat to kicking back with kangaroos, you can find some of the best wildlife experiences on offer.
Meet and help preserve koalas near Melbourne, Victoria. Koala populations have been negatively impacted by bushfires, so you can help ensure their future with a Koala Recovery Experience.

You’ll work with social enterprise Echidna Walkabout, members of the local community, and volunteers from the Koala Clancy Foundation. In the afternoons you’ll go on guided nature walks and spot wild kangaroos and emus, and of course, meet the koalas whose lives you are helping to preserve.
