Byron Bay and Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary Day Tour

2 Reviews

6 hours to 8 hours

Overview

This guided day tour combines three well-known east coast highlights in one trip: Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, Byron Bay and Cape Byron Lighthouse. You’ll spend part of the day around native wildlife, with chances to hand-feed kangaroos, see lorikeets and catch wildlife shows, before heading south to Byron for beachside scenery and time to explore. At AUD 450, it sits more in the premium day-tour bracket than the budget end, but it covers a lot in one go if you want an easy, organised outing.

Free cancellation

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Why backpackers love it

If you’re short on time and want to tick off wildlife and Byron Bay in one day, this keeps things simple. You don’t need to sort out transport, route planning or sanctuary entry yourself, and you still get a mix of animal encounters, beach town wandering and a classic lookout stop. It’s also accessible for a wide range of fitness levels, with public transport nearby and pram-friendly access noted.

What to expect

The day starts at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, where you can wander through rainforest areas, see Australian animals up close and watch the sanctuary’s wildlife presentations. Highlights mentioned include hand-feeding kangaroos, seeing lorikeet feeding and getting a photo with a koala. After that, the tour continues to Byron Bay, where you’ll have time to take in the town’s laid-back atmosphere, browse boutique shops, walk along the beach and enjoy the coastal setting. The day finishes with a visit to Cape Byron Lighthouse for wide ocean views from Australia’s most easterly point. A walking guide is included.
