Covered shoes are essential and a jacket on cooler days is recommended.

We request that you try and wear dark clothing if possible so that&nbsp;we don&rsquo;t draw attention to ourselves or disturb&nbsp;the wildlife that we are trying to see.

Our vehicles are comfortable and clean. You will travel in our luxury 8 seat, hybrid vehicle, with comfy seats, air conditioning, video, easy to get in and out of. &nbsp;We think it&rsquo;s the best tour vehicle in Byron Bay.

We do offer walking and driving tours and can cater to people with a variety of disabilities. Please ask us if you have any special requirements.

The platypus is one of&nbsp;Australia&#39;s most recognised native animals, and you will get the opportunity to witness them in their own natural environment.&nbsp;It is possible to see a platypus at any time of the day, but the&nbsp;best chance is just after dawn.

&nbsp;

Go in search of these unique mammals on a half-day morning adventure into the&nbsp;creeks they call home with a wildlife expert as your guide.&nbsp;Get picked up from your accommodation in a luxury 8-seater 4WD van as you drive towards the special platypus area to start&nbsp;an easy&nbsp;90-minute walk along the creek.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Your guide will lead you at a gentle pace, showing you what to look for and sharing many quirky insights about this much-loved Australian animal.&nbsp;Despite being a mammal, platypuses lay eggs, which makes&nbsp;them a monotreme. They&rsquo;re one of only five monotreme species left in existence.

&nbsp;

On this eco-tour, we usually see one or two platypuses, an abundance of birds and sometimes even koalas. After watching the platypus have their breakfast, we stop to relax with ours &ndash; a locally-sourced picnic by the creek &ndash; before returning to Byron Bay.

&nbsp;

Our aim is to give you the best possible wildlife experience, however, we cannot guarantee platypus sightings. Do not worry, if we don&rsquo;t see them we can take you on another day at no charge.
