It is possible to see platypus at any time of the day, but our best chance is just after dawn.
We pick you up from your Byron Bay accommodation and drive to the special platypus area. From there we start our 90- minute easy walk along the creek looking for platypus.
Your guide will lead you at a gentle pace, showing you what to look for and sharing insights about this much-loved and quirky Australian animal.
We usually see one or two platypus, loads of birds and sometimes even koalas. After watching the platypus have their breakfast we relax with ours – a picnic by the creek – before
returning to Byron Bay.
We can’t guarantee platypus sightings on this tour, but don’t worry. If we don’t see them, we take you on another day, free.
You'll journey in style and comfort, either in our cozy eight-seaterhybrid vehicle or our spacious 12-seater bus, depending on the groupsize for the tour.Pleaselet us know if you have any special dietary requirements when you book
This tour was one of the best parts of my trip! It is so wonderful to see the animals in nature. The guide is so knowledgeable and knows exactly where to take you to see the animals in the wild.
We had an awesome day. Wendy was very knowledgeable regarding the history and culture of all the places we visited. It was a great way to see all the surroundings of Byron Bay. I would highly recommend doing a tour with Vision Walks.
We had the pleasure of having Tom as our guide for the day. Tom was absolutely amazing! His knowledge was very impressive, which added so much to the overall experience. We were lucky to get to see koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, flying foxes
