The Day Tour of Kangaroo Island was amazing. It was an early start at 6:30AM and returning at 10:35PM with plenty to see on this tour. The SeaLink ferry from Adelaide to Penneshaw was an hour long ride and we recommend you pack a light home-made breakfast or snack, as a sandwich is $10.50 and drinks are a bit expensive too onboard the ferry. Our Kangaroo Island driver/tour guide Dave was very knowledgeable, humourous and we appreciated him indicating where the public toilets were throughout the tour. The Seal Bay Conservation Park was fantastic and most of the seals were lying on the beach since it was a warm 30 degrees C day. We stopped for several minutes to see the Lighthouse then continued on to the fabulous Admirals Arch and the interesting Remarkable Rocks. Our favourite place was the Kangaroo Island Wildlife Park where you can hold and cuddle a koala for a fee, view the cute Little (fairy) Penguins, meerkats, marmosets, koalas eating in trees and we were allowed to hand-feed the kangaroos. We had lunch at the Vivonne Bay Lodge where the lovely staff were attentive to any dietary requirements. We highly recommend this day tour. Thank you to our drivers from Adelaide, Kangaroo Island tour guide Dave, all the guides at Seal Bay and the Wildlife Park for an enjoyable day.
