Kirrama
Wildlife Tours
(Birdwatching Tours in Northern Australia)
Owner/operators, Klaus and Brenda Uhlenhut have offered fully accommodated birdwatching tours in Northern Australia since 1988. Although specialising in Cape York and the Cairns region, at least once every year we visit the Gulf and Mount Isa region, the Northern Territory and Western Australia.
Most tours are small (6 - 8 max.), personalised and packed with wealth of knowledge and experience of the birds and other wildlife. On all tours we concentrate on the endemic and specials birds of each region.
Please look at our tour itineraries on our web page.

Birdwatching
Aficionados - Jonny
Schoenjahn
I specialise in customised birdwatching tours and operate exclusively
on request. There are no standard tours or regular schedules. I only take one
booking at a time with a maximum of 4 people. This means you will be the only
customers on the tour and my attention is focused on your pleasure.
All tours are accommodated in personally selected, quality accommodation. The exception being tours such as through the Great Sandy Desert in search of the rare Princess Parrot, where we will camp. My vehicle is a very comfortable, spacy and well equipped Toyota Landcruiser 4WD. With most tours you have the option to 'fly and drive', the choice is yours.
The areas I visit include:
I conduct special trips into the remote Outback, particularly the many deserts, or criss-cross through Australia in search of the ten endemic Grasswren species. If there are particular birds you want to see just let me know. I would be pleased to work out a unique tour for you.

Australasian Ornithological
Services Pty Ltd
Australian Ornithological Services (formerly Inland Bird Tours) started in Deniliquin
in the southern Riverina area of N.S.W. 15 years ago.
The main focus of those
tours was the Plains-wanderer. While the Plains-wanderer is still our flagship
species we have increased our repertoire to include all States of Australia and
New Zealand, specialising in difficult skulkers and nocturnal birds.
We are
the inland specialists for serious birders. We endeavour to ensure that the whole
group see the birds and not just a lucky few.
Tour
leader, Philip Maher, is interested in all aspects of natural history.
