Tour Description
Kangaroo Island 3 day RTV Wildlife Adventure
Departs Adelaide from 6am every Monday, Wednesday & Friday (October to May)
Our tours start when we pick you up from your hostel in
Adelaide and drive towards Kangaroo Island via the Fleurieu
Peninsula and experience some fantastic coastal views. We
arrive at Cape Jervis and jump on either our own charter
boat (and actively search for dolphins) or the ferry as we
cross the Backstairs Passage to Penneshaw on the island.
From there we start our Kangaroo Island experience
with the panoramic views atop Prospect Hill.
Our days of action, wildlife and wilderness include sand
boarding at Little Sahara (like snowboarding on sand),
swimming and snorkelling at some remote beaches and
optional quad biking around the bush at sunset.
We also visit Seal Bay, where we get up close to the
Sea Lions on a beach walk.
Overnight is (usually) spent at our private stone cottage
not far from Vivonne Bay and surrounded by kangaroos,
possums and the occasional echnida and koala. The nights
are spent around the campfire. After dinner, whether an
Aussie BBQ feast or some other “tour specialty”, we take
a nocturnal walk and see those animals active at night,
including penguins.
We spend time in the Flinders Chase National Park, the
largest on the island. We check out the famous Remarkable
Rocks and Admirals Arch before choosing a selection of
short hikes. Flinders Chase is home to the elusive platypus,
vast tracts of untamed wilderness and heaps of other
wildlife, which we’ll do our best to see lots of.
With an extra day on the island our 3 days/2 nights tour has
time to visit the Euclayptus Distillery, Stokes Bay, Kangaroo
Island Winery and Kelly Hill Caves.
At the end of the day we make our way back to Penneshaw
for the return crossing to Cape Jervis and the drive back
into Adelaide, arriving at about 8.30pm.
Please note:
Preferable luggage limit is one small bag per person.
