Kangaroo Island Tours & Trips
Think Kangaroo Island is just about kangaroos? South Australia's island has Remarkable Rocks and Admirals Arch at Flinders Chase, seal colonies at Seal Bay, and Little Sahara's sand dunes for sandboarding. You'll see kangaroos obviously, plus wallabies, koalas, and echidnas, visit honey farms, and taste local seafood and wines. The island's less developed than mainland tourist spots, and that’s what makes it so wonderful.

I really hard such a great time at this two day trip. Originally I booked another trip from another organisation which was cancelled very late. I was very happy finding this two day trip instead. It was a better one! Aaron was the best guide. He took care of everybody, is a very good and safe driver, he gave the group lots of information and has great humour. We saw the best places of Kangaroo Island in just two days. But everywhere enough time to enjoy. I lived the best time of my life at this trip after having severe health problems laat year. Some moments really made me feel emotional by the overwhelming nature. The communication with Nikki (CEO I think) before and during the trip was great. The campsite and my private tent was awesome. Really thanks Aaron and Nikki for giving me these best times.

We loved our tour! The tour guide Eli was amazing and the experiences we made on kangaroo island were incredible. Would definitely come back and highly recommend the tour to others! It is a bit expensive however that’s mainly because of the ferry to the island which is so expensive, if you deduct this it’s a fair price. Food choices were amazing also the vegetarian ones! We saw so many animals which was amazing ?

Our tour guide Soren was fantastic. The places we saw, the places we ate, those on the same tour were wonderful. However we will never travel through Tourradar again. Once they had our money , communication was impossible. So disappointing. Perhaps a phone call to us would be appreciated, Faith 0478226619
