Our patented Night Vision Bushwalk is the only one of its kind in the world!
Imagine exploring the Australian rainforest at night, searching for nocturnal wildlife, instead of wielding a torch you’ll wear special night vision goggles, this is military grade technology that lets you see animals as they go about their business.
Because we don’t use bright lights, we are less intrusive and that means we can be more connected to what is going on all around us. For many of our clients, seeing the forest in the dark is an enlightening experience.
After your walk enjoy a hot chocolate, gazing up at the starry night. Heaven!
Please let us know if you have any special dietary requirements when you book.
Nights with less moonlight are best for a Night Vision Bushwalk. On a typical night we see five species. Our regular sightings include Possum, Pademelon, Bandicoot, Tawny Frogmouth, Leaf tailed Gecko, Fuscipes, Melomys, Micro Bats and Frogs. Whilst we do our very best to give you a great experience, we are dealing with nature so we cannot guarantee animal sightings.
These walks are not recommended for people with epilepsy.

Very accomodating when we needed to get out a day early due to intense rainfall.
Friendly helpful and reliable.
Thanks Wendy!
We saw 10 koalas, all peacefully sleeping up in the trees, which was such a special experience. The tour itself was fantastic, and Wendy from Vision Tours made it, she was knowledgeable, friendly and clearly passionate about the area.
It wasn’t just about the koalas either. We also saw macadamia farms, tea tree plantations and cattle egrets, all set against the most beautiful, lush green scenery.
A really well-rounded, relaxed and memorable tour. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Byron.
We were in Byron Bay and wanted to see some wildlife. We'd seen Kangaroos, Wombats and Koalas before, so we did the night vision walk.
The guide took us to a patch of remaining "virgin rain forest) and we saw pademelons (really cool) and walabies, a huge Capet Python hunting the Bush Rats (which are not really rats but marsupials. We saw lots of this Bush Rats as well (and they are pretty cute). Finally, we had a magnificent sighting of something on my bucketlst--a gorgeous Tawny Frogmouth. What an incredible bird.
I would strongly recommend this company and their tours. First rate
Strongly recommend for those that are looking for special encounters with Australia's unique wildlife.
Great suggestions regarding where to leave our car in Mullum.
We decided to make a change to our itinerary on the last day. I phoned Wendy & it was all sorted immediately & her communication was excellent.
Emma, our shuttle driver both ways was very personable & professional.
Thank you for making it all so easy! Will definitely recommend them.
The service could be improved by allowing extra time for the Minyon Grass section of the walk. This last section was incredible but we didn’t have enough time to fully enjoy the experience because of the pick up time.
I highly recommend the great customer service.
Mullumbimby was a great spot to leave the car as travel distance was short and its a fun town to have breakfast before and lunch after.
All these conveniences made for a smooth and fun walking adventure. Thank you!
The service was prompt and friendly, and the advice helpful.
My only criticism is that there was only just enough time for us to do the extra 6 km to the base of Minyon Falls - arguably one of the most spectacular and worthwhile portions of the hike. It would have been nice to have another half an hour to an hour to finish this section of the walk at a more leisurely pace, especially after four days on the trail.
All in all though, I definitely recommend using Vision Walks if you'd like to walk the Gijuum Gulganyi trail but you're not from the area / don't have a car.

Amazing scenery and comfortable glamping style accommodation each night.
A massive thank you to our guide Tom, whose friendly nature and obvious love of his job made the trek all the more special.
Worth every penny (cent) and a great way to spend a morning.
It was a great day and Tom was a great guide, we definately recommend.
The icing on the cake: she has invested in tree planting so that the carbon footprint of her business is a net positive to the world! And the trees help provide koalas with an enhanced habitat!
This adventure was 100% worth every penny! We couldn’t recommend Wendy and her business high enough.
We spotted koalas on eucaliptus, some kangaroos and wallabi, bats and birds. We had a very nice pic nic (also for vegan vegetarian and gluten free).
Very recommended
Thanks for the great experience and amazing pictures! You made the trip of a lifetime even better! Book today!
Our guide, Wendy, took us to all the local stops where we were able to see all sorts of Australia's wildlife.
We started off by seeing a colony of flying foxes and also stumbled upon a carpet python!
Our next stop was a boardwalk in a rainforest to see pademelons. Although we couldn't see them by eye, Wendy let us use her thermal monocular and we managed to spot them, along with a few birds by eye.
We proceeded to go see koalas in the wild, and were lucky enough to see them while they were awake and hungry.
The picnic lunch was provided by our guide, and there was a lovely selection of all sorts of foods.
We finished off the tour with some kangaroo and wallaby spotting and managed to see quite a few.
Overall, I was incredibly chuffed with this tour and will definitely book again with the same guide.
