Tours and Lectures

Through my company Lord Howe Island Nature Tours, I run a number of special-interest one-week tours throughout the year, for small groups to enjoy exploring the island on foot, discover the unique flora and fauna first hand, or participate in conservation activities.

There are also day and half-day nature walks available when I’m not running the week-long tours.

To make the most of your stay on the Island, you can arrange a private day or half-day tour. From the microscopic to the gargantuan, I will show you the many secrets of the island that very few people get to see.

  • One of the most popular walks is the low tide walk exploring the rockpools to discover the marine life
