NEW OFF SEASON TOURS
Joey Encounter
Dessert With The Devil
OFF SEASON Joey Encounter
The Joey Encounter tour will take a small group of LUCKY visitors behind the scenes to our animal nursery, where you will have the chance to meet some of our young residents. This is a unique opportunity and will be a very special and memorable experience, ideal for families with young children, or animal lovers of any age.
Operating at 4pm daily this tour, exclusively for the off season, our twilight joey encounter has been extended to include a roaring fire and toasted marshmallows in the company of our growling devils.
Many of these animals will remain at the sanctuary as species ambassadors and will become important breeding animals in the next year or two. When joining this tour, you will be directly supporting these animals and threatened species conservation.
The admission ticket for this tour also includes free day entry and Day Keeper tour, so before or after your Joey Encounter why not join one of our Day Keeper tours to learn all about the operations of this unique alpine sanctuary.
Entry Fees:
Adult (16 years and over) | $75 |
Child (4 -15yrs) | $50 |
Please note: no concession or family rates available and all children must be accompanied by an adult.
PLEASE NOTE: Devils and quolls are marsupials with annual breeding cycles. Whilst we do use our young ambassadors, it is not always possible for us to have very young joeys available for these encounters. Breeding does vary slightly from season to season, but generally speaking, our hand-reared animals used on this tour are considered joeys (~Oct-Apr) and juveniles or sub-adults (~May-Sept). Please contact us prior to booking if you would like more information for these encounters throughout the year.
Bookings highly recommended.
