David,
My recommendation would be to put a request on birding-aus for someone to take
you around the WTP. Depending in the day, you are likely to get an offer or two.
If you don't, you'll need to do an induction - but worse, it is a very large
facility and very confusing. You'd likely miss key spots like the Borrow Pits,
and be hard-pressed finding other areas.
