:: Itinerary
- 1 Day Kangaroo Island Highlights
Day Tour
Experience
the unspoilt nature and spectacular wild beauty of Kangaroo
Island on this full day tour.
Depart early morning for a scenic coach trip through the hills
and farmland, and along the coast to Cape Jervis, connecting
with SeaLink's fast and comfortable ferry "Sealion 2000"
for the short 45 minute cruise to Kangaroo Island.
Your day of discovery begins with a visit to Seal Bay,
where you can walk with a Parks Ranger amongst a wild colony
of rare and endangered sea-lions resting on the beach after
their long fishing expeditions. Discover the Island's renowned
park, Flinders Chase National Park, a sanctuary for numerous
native Australian animals including kangaroos, wallabies, koalas,
echidnas and Cape Barren Geese. On the most southern tip of
Flinders Chase National Park is Remarkable Rocks and
Admiral's Arch, both providing great photographic opportunities.
Remarkable Rocks is truly remarkable in size and shape offering
spectacular sea views. At Admiral's Arch with its rugged coastal
scenery look for fur seals frolicking in the waters below.
We then commence our journey back to Penneshaw, for the return
ferry and coach transfer to Adelaide. (Passengers returning
to Adelaide by air, will be transferred to Kingscote Airport
for the flight to Adelaide)

South
Australia: is the fourth largest state - four times the
size of the UK and slightly larger than Texas - and offers
all the experiences synonymous with Australia in one accessible
area. Except for Adelaide (home to 1 million of the 1.5m residents),
South Australia is sparsely inhabited and is the country's
driest state. The terrain ranges from the craggy mountains
of the Flinders Ranges (the southern reaches begin only 220kms
out of Adelaide) to the vast expanses of isolated, desert
outback broken by the fertile wine growing areas, including
the world-renowned Barossa and Clare Valleys. Just offshore
is Kangaroo Island, a wilderness and wildlife haven.
Kangaroo Island: is world-renowned as a place to see
native Australian wildlife in its natural habitat. There are
several reasons for this, firstly, more than half the island
has never been cleared of vegetation, with about one third
conserved in National and Conservation Parks. In addition,
foxes and rabbits were never introduced onto the island, ensuring
the integrity of the uncleared bushland and the presence of
abundant wildlife, much of which is uncommon or extinct on
mainland Australia. On your trip, you may get to see the Kangaroo
Island Kangaroo, Tammar Wallaby, Short Beaked Echidna, Southern
Brown Bandicoot, various species of possum, Cape Barren Geese,
dolphins, penguins, whales (seasonal) and the endangered Glossy
Black Cockatoo. The island also has flourishing populations
of the rare Australian Sea Lion, New Zealand Fur Seal and
Australian Fur Seal, which are all native, plus koalas and
platypus (though the latter are pretty hard to spot!), which
were introduced but still survive there.
