Kangaroo Island Luxury 'East End Explorer' Full Day Landscape and Wildlife Tour
This full day tour explores Kangaroo Island's stunning east end, featuring spectacular coastlines, untouched wilderness, wildlife in the wild plus a visit to one of Kangaroo Island's best cellar doors.
ITINERARY
Start the day at Pennington Bay situated at the narrowest part of the Island. This Southern Ocean beach is a popular fishing and surf spot. Enjoy home-baked morning tea overlooking extensive wave-cut platforms and contrasting deep aqua water.
Travelling east, we get endless views of the serene marine sanctuary which is Pelican Lagoon. Adjacent the lagoon is excellent kangaroo habitat and the tea-tree thickets harbour tammar wallabies sheltering from their constant predator - the wedge-tailed eagle.
The deep alluvial soils of the Willson River overlying limestone are perfect for grapevines. The team at False Cape Wines have a newly opened cellar door experience overlooking well-established wines. We will sample their range of wines and then enjoy a local produce picnic nearby.
Cape Willoughby Lighthouse, established in 1852, stands tall on an exposed headland. Explore the lighthouse precinct and the granite canyon known as "Devil's Kitchen". This lighthouse shines a warning for sailors traversing the treacherous Backstair's Passage. The headland provides protection from ocean swells for Antechamber Bay. Take a walk on the long white sandy beach or seek our birds on the quiet backwaters of the Chapman River estuary.
End the day in Penneshaw which we can access via a 4WD trail known as Binney's Track. This runs adjacent to Baudin Conservation Park which provides habitat for a range of wildlife including glossy black-cockatoos, kangaroos, wallabies and echidnas. INCLUSIONS One day small group touring hosted by a local guide Home-baked traditional Australian morning tea with a selection of hot beverages Elegant al fresco lunch set in the bush with a choice of local wines, beer, soft drinks and spring water Access to field guides, binoculars and maps All necessary fees and admissions

Kangaroo Island Luxury 'Island Life' Full Day Landscape and Wildlife Tour
This full day tour is our signature Kangaroo Island experience which combines a range of wildlife encounters, some north and south coast landscapes, and an elegant barbecue at a private camp in the bush.
ITINERARY
Start the day with a cuppa and some home-baked morning tea before taking a walk down a country track through tall Eucalyptus trees where koalas snooze overhead or wake briefly for a feed.
Travel through the Island’s most productive country to the north coast. Walk through the bush with your guide – through strangely shaped trees learning what makes that noise or whose tracks those are. Look for small wallabies almost extinct on the mainland, a kangaroo found only on Kangaroo Island and a variety of other birds, plants and animals.
Break for lunch at a private bush camp and enjoy a delicious meal featuring King George whiting (local sea fish), fresh salads and fine South Australian wines.
End the day at Seal Bay Conservation Park take a private tour with your guide among Australian Sea-lions on a beautiful sandy beach – an experience similar to that of the Galapagos. Watch pups nursing or playing in the surf, see old bulls bearing the scars of territorial disputes and learn about their unique breeding biology.
Transfer back to Kingscote Airport or your accommodation. INCLUSIONS One day small group touring hosted by a local guide Home-baked traditional Australian morning tea with a selection of hot beverages Elegant al fresco lunch set in the bush with a choice of local wines, beer, soft drinks and spring water Access to field guides, binoculars and maps All necessary fees and admissions

Private Kangaroo Island Luxury 'East End Explorer' Full Day Landscape & Wildlife Tour
* Larger vehicles or multiple vehicles available on request*
The Dudley Peninsula which forms the east end of Kangaroo Island is a microcosm of the rest of the island. The north coast has hills rolling down to the sea and white sand beaches. Roadside vegetation forms an avenue overhead many of the narrow roads. Ice-age dunes and rugged limestone cliffs dominate the south coast, which is indented by high-energy beaches.
ITINERARY
Start the day at Pennington Bay situated at the narrowest part of the Island. This Southern Ocean beach is a popular fishing and surf spot. Enjoy home-baked morning tea overlooking extensive wave-cut platforms and contrasting deep aqua water.
