Wildlife Eco Tours

Explore the wild wonders of Southeast and Southern Queensland

Queensland is home to one of the most diverse arrays of wildlife on the planet, from shimmering fish in the Great Barrier Reef to the shy and elusive creatures of the rainforest. If you're looking to experience Australia's native fauna in all its wild glory, there’s no better place to start than right here. This is where you can encounter everything from migrating whales to koalas, kangaroos, platypus, dingoes, and much more—all in their natural, undisturbed habitats.

A unique opportunity to observe Queensland’s wildlife

On our eco tours, you’ll have the unique opportunity to observe Queensland's wildlife up close. Marvel at the awe-inspiring migration of humpback whales along the coast, the playful antics of kangaroos and wallabies, and the sight of koalas dozing lazily in the treetops. But that's just the beginning! Discover the fascinating lungfish and turtles in freshwater habitats, spot land mullets sunning themselves in the warm outback, or look out for the glowing brilliance of gliders and possum species darting through the night sky. And in the cool shadows of the rainforests, you might even catch a glimpse of flying foxes flitting overhead.

Queensland’s diverse habitats and wildlife

Queensland’s wildlife is as diverse as the landscapes it inhabits—from the sun-drenched beaches to lush rainforests and rugged outback. Whether you're trekking through the rainforests of the Hinterland, cruising along the coast, or exploring the open plains, you’ll encounter creatures that are as varied as the habitats they thrive in, including wombats burrowing into the earth and bilbies scampering through the arid desert.

Learning About Queensland’s Unique Wildlife

Beyond simply spotting these incredible animals, our tours also provide opportunities to learn about their unique characteristics, behaviours, and the amazing ways they’ve evolved to survive in such varied ecosystems. From the ancient lungfish—a living fossil that dates back over 400 million years—to the flying foxes, vital pollinators of the region, you’ll gain insight into how these creatures interact with their environment and how we can help protect them for future generations.

Respecting Queensland’s Natural Environment

While the natural world is all around you, it’s important to remember that we observe these creatures from a respectful distance. Their habitats must remain undisturbed, ensuring they continue to thrive in their natural environment. Whether you’re an avid wildlife enthusiast or just starting your journey into the fascinating world of Australian animals, our tours offer unparalleled opportunities to witness the best of Queensland’s wildlife. From the depths of the coral reefs to the high treetops and sweeping plains, you’ll experience firsthand the beauty and diversity of one of the world’s most extraordinary wildlife destinations.

“Fantastic day exploring some very special spots right here in SE Qld. Lots of valuable info that everyone should learn to live within our wonderful environment amongst such beautiful creatures!”

Susan Robb

"We have been privileged to work with Kemp over the past few years. Kemp has been extremely generous and gracious with sharing his knowledge and apparent love for native plants with us - in turn increasing our love for them and beautifying our property. With Kemp’s advice we have turned our baron house site into an oasis for native animals with minimal maintenance required."

Jane Brooks

“The Bushfood Walk around the Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens was great. Lots of useful information & tips for growing your own at home as well as finding food in the wild. Kemp knows his stuff and is more than willing to answer your questions. If our unique native flora is something you are interested in, get to know this bloke.”

Jasmine Steer

“If you haven't done this walk or attended one of their talks, I really recommend you do so. The knowledge of local bush tucker, medicinal plants, dry rainforest species AND where to buy them from.... is amazing! You will be so pleased you did.”

Shane Stephens

“We recently purchased 20 acres and not long after got Kemp from Flora 4 Fauna out for a consultation. This was hands down the best thing we did, were very glad we did it early on! Not only did Kemp advise us what plants would work well, but also identified species we already had growing (which we would have never known without him).

Kemp recommended specific plants & placements that would be beneficial. We didn’t have high expectations of survival as we have very sandy soil, and we only get out to the block once a week to water. Following Kemp’s guidance, all of our plants have not only survived but are thriving! This was a great feeling to have so many wins and see things thriving, as opposed to struggling to keep things alive. “

Sophie Oliver

The eco tour through the Bunya Mountains with Kemp from Flora 4 Fauna offers a fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in nature. The day takes you through the stunning rainforest, past towering bunya trees and trickling streams. Along the way, we learned about the region's rich biodiversity, Indigenous history, and the vital role these ecosystems play in the environment.The trail is easy to moderate, making it accessible for most fitness levels. Kemp is incredibly informative, sharing interesting facts about local wildlife, plant species, and conservation efforts in the area. The focus on sustainability and environmental education adds a deeper layer to the experience, making it not just a hike, but an educational journey.If you're looking to explore one of Australia’s most beautiful landscapes while learning about conservation and wildlife protection, the Bunya Mountains eco walk with Flora 4 Fauna is a must.

Liza Sommers

The Eco tour to the Bunya Mountains with Flora 4 Fauna exceeded my expectations. As an emerging wildlife photographer, I found the walking pace perfect to be able to zoom in on the many native flora and fauna that showed off in vibrant displays of colours and shapes. Ambling beneath the cooling canopy of this unique ancient subtropical rainforest and marvelling at its abundance and splendour was candy for the soul.The best part was to have Kemp share his intricate learnings of the native flora and fauna we saw. Together with his storytelling and to be able to enjoy Bunya Nut infused local delicacies the experience came full circle.Kemp's intimate knowledge of the rural road network combined with the air conditioned comfort of the car made for a relaxing travel experience.
