It is your turn to be the Playtpus Keeper at Healesville Sanctuary on this unique tour with Oceania Tours.
A hands-on wildlife experience not to be missed and not to be forgotten.
You will have the opportunity to step into the shallow water of the ‘platypus play pool’ where it is normally the keeper’s job to play, frolic, tickle and feed these little furry friends. Oceania Tours believe this can be up there with the highlights of a trip to Australia. Not just see but to interact with the amazing, unique and friendly (female) Platypus.
Please note there is only one encounter on days of operation and only for two people, so booking early is essential.
