Our Kangaroo Island Tours from Adelaide are great for viewing native Wildlife in the wild. Kangaroo Island has the distinction of being one of the best places in Australia to view native wildlife in it's natural habitat, Kangaroos, Koalas, Platypus, Tammar Wallabies, Echidnas, Glossy Black Cockatoos, Australian Sea Lions & New Zealand Fur Seals are often seen on tour.
There are a couple of reasons why wildlife is so easy to spot on Kangaroo Island;
1. There are no natural predators of the animals on the island and there haven't been since aboriginal people ceased living on the island approximately 10,000 years ago, the wildlife over this time has adapted to a life of no predators and thus are a lot less fearful of humans, it is possible then to get very close to the animals in their natural habitat
2. There are few non native introduced species of animal living on Kangaroo Island. Foxes and Rabbits which live on mainland Australia (after being introduced from England in the 1800's) have had a disastrous effect on native wildlife and are believed to be responsible for numerous extinctions, the foxes kill and the rabbits compete for food. This is clearly demonstrated with the survival of the Tammar Wallaby . 1000's of Tammar Wallabies thrive on Kangaroo Island where there are no Rabbits or Foxes, but just 16 km away on the mainland they have been extinct for nearly 90 years.
Remarkable Rocks, Flinders Chase.
Each 2 Day Kangaroo Island Tour, 3 Day Kangaroo Island tour and Private Charter visit the world famous Seal Bay Conservation Park. This park is home to one of the largest colony of the highly endangered Australian Sea Lions. Not only are you able to view the Sea Lions, you are also able to walk on the beach with the Sea Lions getting within metres of them in their natural environment, it feels just like being in a David Attenborough documentary! It is a truly amazing experience. Tours Kangaroo Island

"An antidote to urban grit, Kangaroo Island is deservedly popular - it offers the state's best opportunity to view and interact with a plethora of Australian native wildlife. Kangaroo Island's isolation from European diseases and feral species has greatly protected the island's fauna. And this is accessible in a stunning natural environment where development is yet to really take off (even some major roads are gravel). Located 13km off SA's coast, its wild, rugged coastline shelters beaches edged with turquoise seas, while the interior contains native forest and bush, 30% of which is maintained as conservation or national parks. Flinders Chase National Park is a highlight, with wildlife galore, forests and dramatic coastal scenery.
While here, be sure to try the island's local produce, including fresh seafood and marron (a freshwater crayfish), honey produced by a pure strain of Ligurian bees, jams from indigenous fruits, sheep-milk cheeses, local wines and eucalyptus oil."
