Bike ride with koalas

 A unique new tourism-based business will be launched on Saturday, December 20 on Raymond Island. Everyone is invited to come along at 2:00 pm to join in the fun of ‘Ride the Koalas’ Surrey bike hire free of charge.
This exciting business ‘Ride the Koalas’ will enable tourists to hire Surrey bikes to ride around the island following the already successful and popular Koala Trail.

Just imagine being able to enjoy a coffee, pick up a picnic hamper from one of the many cafes in Paynesville and then catching the Raymond Island Ferry as a passenger, no cost for pedestrians. Once on the island you can then hire a Surrey bike and ride around the island spotting not only the many Koalas but all manner of flora and fauna.

Victor has imported six Surrey Bikes, a popular family bicycle attraction in Europe and America, particularly at Florida’s Disney World. Both the two- and four-seater bikes are available for hourly hire, private and group booking seven days a week from December 21, 2014, for the summer holiday period. Four-seater and two-seater bikes are available so come as a couple or bring the whole family!


In addition to finding koalas, kangaroos, kookaburras, echidnas, dolphins, all manner of bird life and beautiful flora, including rare orchids, Raymond Island offers many stunning and easy destinations to ride. Views of McMillan Strait along Western Boulevard, to sunsets from Montague Point, Raymond Island is a truly unique place to visit.  

Ride The Koalas is also very proud to announce that they are now a sponsor of the Raymond Island Koala and Wildlife Shelter, a volunteer organisation doing wonderful work helping to sustain the Island’s internationally famous wild Koala population.
The owner, Victor Trofimovs, started holidaying on Raymond Island 15 years ago and has now, with his wife Victoria, settled permanently on the southern end of the island. Victor has acquired the artistic talents of locally born illustrator, Lachlan Millard, to design the graphics for the business. Lachlan’s very cute design offers unique branding for ‘Ride The Koalas’.    His cartoon-based characters perfectly capture the spirit and fun that this new business, and Raymond Island has to offer.
