We are not new to this tour, but we never tire of it. Every time we visit Margaret River with family or friends, we always recommend Mick and Ryan’s Nocturnal Walk.
They are a wealth of knowledge, incredibly respectful of the wildlife, aboriginal culture and create such an engaging experience for all ages. We’ve done this tour several times with our children from aged 1 - 18 who says , its his favourite part of Margaret river.
An absolute must do

This was my second time doing the nocturnal tour with South West Eco Discoveries, and honestly it felt like my first time all over again. Every tour is such a unique experience and I learnt so much about the bush, star constellations, arachnids, and marsupials — and even got to pat a few 😊
A special mention to our tour guide Ryan, who was absolutely fantastic. His professionalism, knowledge, and passion for the environment really stood out. He made everyone feel safe and confident navigating through the bush at night, while still keeping the tour engaging, educational, and fun.
Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the South West. It’s such a beautiful way to connect with nature and appreciate the incredible wildlife. A wonderful family-owned business that truly strives to give you a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The best thing you can do in WA (probably in Australia)! This has been hands down the best tour/activity we have ever done on holidays! Our guide, Ryan, was so knowledgeable, friendly and fun! We got to see so much of the South-West from the pristine coastline, to the amazing wildlife, all the while being informed by a guide with SO MUCH local knowledge!!
The local produce that we got to taste was amazing and should not be missed!
Seriously, if you have a short stay in Busselton (eg. Tour ship stop, quick weekend WA visit), this should be the only activity you book! Well worth it and true value for money!
Well done Ryan and the whole team and manu thanks for a memorable experience!!

Can’t recommend this more! The nocturnal animal tour was “20 times better than expected” according to another family on our tour (which we agreed with. The animals like kangaroos, bandicoots and possums came so close. We had an impromptu star gazing tour as well. Mick and Ryan are knowledgeable, fun, and responsive to the kids’ many questions. They serve hot chocolate and cookies, too. Definitely do it.
