Discover the extraordinary endemic birdlife of Tasmania on this immersive seven-day small group tour. Tasmania is one of Australia's most rewarding birding destinations, supporting 12 bird species found nowhere else on earth alongside a remarkable diversity of seabirds, waterbirds, raptors, and nocturnal wildlife across its varied island habitats. From the forested slopes of Kunanyi / Mount Wellington and the coastal heathlands of Lunawuni / Bruny Island to the car-free wilderness of Wukaluwikiwayna / Maria Island and the remote buttongrass moorlands of the South West, this tour visits the finest and most productive birding locations in the state with the depth and pace that serious wildlife enthusiasts deserve. The undisputed highlight is a scenic flight into Melaleuca, deep in the South West Wilderness, for a rare encounter with the critically endangered orange-bellied parrot. With all 12 Tasmanian endemics on the target list, this is Tasmanian birding at its most comprehensive and rewarding.
