The Trip
If you really want to see the wildlife of the tropical rainforests of Northern Queensland, you need to get out at night; that’s when most wildlife is active.
This trip is an ideal way to do just that in a small group led by an accomplished guide.
Alberto Vale has been leading wildlife tours in the area for years, and his experience, knowledge and passion make him an ideal guide. We like the fact that he conducts his tours with an ecological bent, keeping the group size small and visiting his favorite secret spots in the forest. He will equip you with a handheld spotlight that gives you a great look at wildlife, but does not interrupt their normal nighttime activities.
This trip is truly a wild night out!

The Company
Wildscapes Safaris is the dreamchild of two energetic and imaginative people, Alberto and June Vale. While June handles much of the behind-the-scenes administration, Alberto leads the wildlife tours.
Alberto is not just an expert on local wildlife. He is passionate about them, conducting scientific research on platypus ecology and serving as an active voice for the conservation of other local species. Alberto’s combined enthusiasm, passion, and knowledge make him the ideal wildlife guide. We especially like the fact that both of his tours involve small groups of 10 people or less, bringing everyone closer to the action.
It is no surprise that Wildscapes Safaris is conducted with the utmost environmental concern and has earned an advanced ecotourism accreditation for its environmental care. Wildscapes Safaris is a National Accredited Ecotourism Tour Operation certified by the Ecotourism Association of Australia since 1997 and Winner of '1999 Queensland Tourism Awards'.
