You also get to visit the honey farm and a couple of wildlife parks, no great retail pressure but there are items to buy. Local characters included, a great trip. We hope... More

Reviewed 16 April 2013

Our itinerary said we would be picked up from our hotel at 6:45am, a call from reception at 6:10 told us a we had missed our pickup. Anyway, we made our way to the bus station to join our tour. You are taken from Adelaide to the ferry by coach, the journey is about 90 minutes and not the most... More

Hi Compustar, Thank you for your review of your tour to Kangaroo Island. We’re pleased that you enjoyed the experience. I apologise for the missed morning pick up, it sounds to me that you were provided with the bus departure time from the Bus Station and not the hotel pick up.

“Don't miss this tour for any reason!”

Reviewed 14 April 2013

Of all the tours we have had in Australia I believe that this one is the best. Although very long for one days outing it really is not to be missed! The tour guides all have such enthusiasm and really do cater for every individual. The different attractions shown to one on this trip too are really interesting. Do not... More

“Ask for Daniel the driver!!!”

Reviewed 12 April 2013

We loved Kangaroo Island, the trip provided by Sealink was a great way to see all of the highlights - however our coach Driver - Daniel - really made the trip for us. As an island local his knowledge is top notch. We visited the Honey Farm (try the ice cream), the Eucalyptus distillary, various animal farms, saw wild koalas... More

“Fantastic tour guide, limited food availability . . .”

Reviewed 11 April 2013

The tour of the island itself was great. Got a taste of all that kangaroo island has to offer and the bus driver was both knowledgeable and humourous! Unfortunately, we thought there would be food available for dinner on the return ferry ride . . . it was more like an airplane snack. Highly recommend traveling one way (or both)... More

“Kangaroo Island”

Reviewed 20 March 2013

The bus was very comfortable. Dave, the driver, was very knowledgeable of the area and went out of his way to satisfy his customers on this trip. The tour was an entire day with a very early morning start. Some people, to shorten the day, flew back to Adelaide from the local Kangaroo Island airport.

Kangaroo Island is much larger than many people realise but SeaLink have managed to pack a lot into one day. With a start just after 6 am hotel pickup and a finish just before 11 pm drop-off it can be tiring but so worth it! Sure the bus trip to and from Cape Jervis is nothing special but, the 45... More
