About Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary Segway Tours
Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary Segway Tours offers a unique way to explore one of Queensland's most iconic wildlife parks — gliding through the rainforest and bushland sections of the 27-hectare sanctuary on a guided Segway. While Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is best known for its koala encounters and lorikeet feeding, the Segway tours open up the quieter, less-visited areas of the park, including eucalyptus forests, wetland boardwalks, and elevated bushland trails where kangaroos and wallabies graze undisturbed.
Tours run for approximately 60 to 90 minutes and begin with a training session in the open grass area, where participants learn to balance, steer, and brake on the Segway. Once comfortable, the group sets off with an experienced guide who provides commentary on the native wildlife, flora, and conservation programs operating within the sanctuary. The pace is relaxed and suitable for riders aged 12 and up, with no prior Segway experience required. The tour is separate from general admission, though combo tickets that include sanctuary entry and animal encounters are available.
This experience has become one of the Gold Coast's best-reviewed eco-activities, appealing to visitors who want something beyond the typical beach-and-theme-park itinerary. The guides are knowledgeable naturalists who go well beyond the script, often stopping to point out native birds, reptiles, and insects that most visitors would walk right past. For families, couples, and nature enthusiasts, the Segway tour adds an adventurous twist to a visit to one of Australia's best wildlife sanctuaries.
