Kangaroo Island

Arrive in Adelaide where you are met by the Aussie Redback Tours team. Once everyone’s on board, we begin with a tour of this beautiful “City of Churches”, visiting the famous Colonel Light Lookout which honours the pioneers of the city, and spending time in the longest and one of the busiest malls in Australia—Rundle Mall. Adelaide’s ring of parkland on the River Torrens is home to renowned museums, international art events, and fringe festivals, and it’s not surprising why. We continue on south to Victor Harbor, passing lovely country towns along the way. Overnight stay in Victor Harbour before our KI adventure begins. (D)

This morning we board the Kangaroo Island ferry from Cape Jervis. Once on land we visit the Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery, followed by a visit to Seal Bay. Enjoy getting up close to the seals for amazing photographs before we round up our day with the Birds of Prey Show at Raptor Domain. Later we make our way to our accommodation for our evening meal. (B,D)

Today we show you the wonders of Flinders Chase National Park. One of the most iconic features are the Remarkable Rocks, a cluster of granite boulders with golden orange lichen. We also head to Admirals Arch, which was formed by massive natural forces, and from the platform you can observe a colony of New Zealand fur seals. Back at our accommodation there is time for a short walk at your own leisure or relax with “Happy Hour” drinks before dinner. (B,D)

We start the day with a drive to Vivonne Bay, a long sandy beach with a picturesque wooden jetty and beautiful turquoise water.  The sand dunes of Little Sahara are our next stop, and for lunch we travel to Stokes Bay on the north coast. We round up the day with a visit to the Bay of Shoals winery for some wine tasting whilst enjoying the magnificent ocean scenery. Later we check out the local souvenir shops and galleries in Kingscote. (B)

Today we take the ferry back to Cape Jervis and make our way to Victor Harbor where you can stroll across the causeway to Granite Island and take a ride on the horse drawn tram back to the mainland (own expense). We continue to Victor Harbor and Strathalbyn, then on to Adelaide for our last night together. (B,D)

This morning, time permitting, we visit the beautiful Adelaide botanical gardens, before transfers to the airport for flights home. (B)
