A brilliant experience, would 10/10 recommend to anyone. The guide is well informed and helpful as well. He provided professional quality cameras that you can use to photograph the bats. These photos can be downloaded later which gives you a good reminder of the entire experience.

So awesome! Just a short drive out of the city and you see active bats in their habitat. Not one or two… hundreds! Dave was an awesome guide and helped us out with his own professional cameras and binoculars to use. Afterwards it connects to your phone and you download the pictures to it. Well thought out and one of a kind fun adventure I would recommend to anyone coming to Sydney!

Excellent experience! Worth it for the ride through town to the bat colony and the knowledge of the guide, Dave. In addition you get access to binoculars and great quality cameras for photos you will not get from your phone. Dave makes sure to get the photos downloaded to your device before you leave. And he had great refreshment options on the way back to the drop off. Totally worth the money. I highly recommend this trip.

Dave was a great guide and delivered us a wonderful afternoon with bats! He was friendly and knowledgeable. The cameras that he provided were great and we got a lot of high quality pics. Drinks and assorted snacks were a nice touch and he brought us back to our hotel at the end. Dave was very personable and answered all our questions. Thanks Dave!

Had a great time, an extraordinary chance to see these awesome bats up close, and there were so many. Dave was also very knowledgeable and answered every question we had.

This was an amazing experience seeing a large flying-fox camp. Dave is a fabulous guide and is not only extremely knowledgeable about the animals you will see (not just the Flying Foxes), but is also very personable and conscientious about his guests. The Flying Foxes were amazing to see congregating in the trees during the day. Mothers with babies. Males fanning themselves to cool off. Some flying tree to tree. Just a very wonderful experience. And, again, you won't find a better guide in Sydney than Dave !!!

Dave our guide was excellent, he shared his knowledge about the giant bats. He lent us binoculars, and even his cameras. Pickup time was on time. The 3 of us were happy about the trip, we are from US.

Dave was a great side!! Just loved everything ab it t the tour. Super simple and easy trip. He had rinks and snacks too! He even offered to drive us back to whichever place they wanted near Sydney.
