Cairns, Palm Cove or Port Douglas, Australia

It’s all happening at Cairns Night Zoo when the sun goes down! You’ll feast on a typical Australian barbecue, spot wildlife by torchlight, do some stargazing under the southern skies, then enjoy live music and entertainment around the campfire.

This thoroughly “Aussie” night begins with a hearty barbecue dinner of steak, chicken, prawns and salads, including juice and soft drinks throughout the evening. After feasting on dinner, you’ll join your intrepid guide to see what some Australians get up to after dark! Supplied with your own flashlight, you’ll be led into the darkness to meet Australia’s creatures of the night. You’ll see crocodile eyes glow in the torchlight, learn how owls hunt, touch a possum and pat a koala. On clear nights the guides will take you star gazing to see the Southern Cross, Big Dipper and other well-known constellations.

You’ll also join the Zoo’s resident swagman and tame kangaroos for traditional billy tea and bush damper around the campfire, and enjoy great Aussie live entertainment. This fabulous fun night out is one to remember!
