Sunset spotlight tour

The Royal Botanic Garden is an oasis waiting to be explored.

We’ll wander the garden pathways and visit biodiversity ‘hotspots’ such as the ponds to look for nocturnal animals – some who fly in for the night, others who are long-term residents. We’ll use our senses and some tech-gadgets used by our scientists to help us locate animals and plants that have special nocturnal adaptations.

We may see golden orb spiders, brush-tailed possums, microbats, flying foxes or tawny frogmouths.

Recommended for ages 8+
