Carry first aid and bug repellent sprays or creams to avoid insect bites. Always go with a tour guide or stay with the tour group. Do not forget your camera or camcorder. Australia has some of the most unique wildlife in the world. Get a camera along as you are likely to catch some wild critter in its natural habitat.
