Want to get up, close and personal with our devils? Well, now you can!
Devils In The Wild Tours
Aussie Ark’s Devils in the Wild tours are run monthly throughout the year. Fully escorted by one of our Aussie Ark Rangers, these tours run for 2.5 hours.
During the tour, you’ll get to see Tasmanian Devils up close, interact with them in free-range enclosures and learn more about our endangered wildlife conservation programs.
You’ll experience the rare opportunity to experience Tasmanian Devils in their natural habitat, and witness firsthand, a communal feed that exhibits the Devils’ natural behaviour in the wild.
Aussie Ark maintains the largest insurance population of Tasmanian Devils in the world – and on your visit you’ll see and learn a lot about (and from) this unique species! And depending on the timing of your visit, you may even get the chance to interact with our newest Devil joeys. Come on a tour between September and February for your best chance of meeting a joey!
2025 Public Tour Dates
Devils in the Wild public tours are only available for booking and payment online. We run tours 2-3 times each month on set dates throughout the year.
