Arriving on this hidden treasure of wilderness that is French Island, we will be participating in a guided tour around the island where our tour guide will share their knowledge of the natural environment whilst we observe the Koalas and array of wildlife that inhabit the island. We stop at a local farmgate and experience how a local lives.
