What to expect
Expect a full day of driving and short walks (1 km stretches manageable for most fitness levels, though 50 steps of stairs involved). You'll spend time in the minibus exploring national park roads, stopping for photos of coastal vistas and valley views. The koala experience happens at a wildlife facility with a keeper explaining behaviour and conservation. Lunch is casual beachside with included beverage. The winery visit includes guided tastings of a few wines, and you'll return via inland routes through country scenery. Pace is moderate; no strenuous hiking.
