We did Wendy's day time tour. Her passion for the local wildlife and indigenous knowledge can't be overstated. We saw so much flora and fauna - koalas, kangaroos, pademelons, wallabies, lizards, dozens of bird species. She's fun and funny and really knows her topic. The fee is well worth it.

This excursion is a must for visitors and locals aike. Wendy is very knowledgable and passionate about what she does which really enhances your experience. The night I went we saw 6 spieces, one being ring-tailed possums which we watched for quite some time, cleary visible through the night vision goggles. Certainly add this to your Must Do List while... More

What a great and original way to see some local wildlife truly in their natural habitat. Wendy was a fabulous host, very knowledgeable not only on the wildlife but also on the local indigenous people's histroy as well. Clearly very passionate about what she does which makes a great difference from some of the robot tour guides you can come... More

The only way to see Australian wildlife at night easily. Great way to get close to nature without impacting on the wildlife. The bush at night is amazing. A surprise was seeing glow worms. This tour is fun and Wendy is a wealth of knowledge.

Thanks for a great experience - the NVGs were great (just watch out for the puddles!!). Wendy provided a great deal of insight into not only the local fauna, but the local history and even a few celebrity point outs! Creature count for the night was a Koala, Pademelon and a ring tailed possum!

My parents & I went on the Beyond Byron Tour and absolutely loved it. Being a manager of a local resort and having lived in Byron for many years, my parents have visited many times and even though we had been to most of the places before we had the best day with Wendy. She shares an amazing amount of... More

Needing a couple of hours of nurturing my friend suggested I give Visions Walks a call about their Crystal Castle tour. Picked up and greeted with a great smile from Wendy, she made sure I was comfortable and took her time driving the scenic windy roads, so I could relax and enjoy my first part of my nurturing afternoon.

We had booked the Mignon Falls walk in May paid for by credit card. 2 Days before we arrived we were informed, that the "car is broken" and the trip was cancelled. We asked for any alternative walks or ideas: not even a reply! It took more than 3 weeks (and three emails) to finally get the money refunded. Very... More

Wizard139, I'm sorry that you experienced poor customer service, this is not the level of service people usually experience with us. But as you said we did give you 2 days notice of the cancellation. You caught us in a period of re-structuring and some admin tasks were not as efficient as they normally are. The old vehicle had broken... More

Wendy picked my girlfriend and I up from our hostel and took us on a night walk which was amazing. We saw frogs, snakes, possum freshwater crayfish and more. She really knew her facts and I could tell she was very passionate about the animals. The night vision goggles were the highlight of our trip. Thanks Wendy, Spencer and Alex
