What you can expect
Get a glimpse of Kangaroo Island’s history, culture, and local products on our five hour island exploration from Penneshaw to Kingscote and back again. Explore local eucalyptus oil and honey producers, enjoy a tasting at a local brewery, spend free time in our largest town and have photo opportunities of original giant artworks and nature locations. A perfect way to learn something of Kangaroo Island life, its history, local culture and unique products that are only found on the island.
The first stop is the iconic Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery. Here you can learn about the manufacturing process and history of the eucalyptus distillery via a short DVD. You can also view a large range of local products and produce. Keep a look out for the friendly local kangaroos and the emu’s that give the area their name.
Next, stop at the Kangaroo Island Ligurian Bee Co where you can taste and purchase some of the purest honey in the world.
Then travel to the township of Kingscote, the largest town on the island and South Australia’s oldest European settlement. You will have one hour to explore the main township, shop at the local gift shops or have lunch in one of the local cafes.
As we leave Kingscote past the famous Silo Art which has become a fan favourite. Marvel at the largest kangaroo in Australia and the glossy black cockatoo.
Next up is a stop at Kangaroo Island Brewery. Founded in 2015 Kangaroo Island Brewery creates unique craft beers and ciders. You’ll sit back, relax and enjoy a tasting with the option to purchase further drinks.
Lastly we stop by Pennington Bay, known for its sweeping panoramic views of wild coast and turquoise waters. A fantastic photo-op stop over.
Local informative history is provided whilst you enjoy a return transfer back to Penneshaw.
