About this tour
An 8-hour small-group 4WD tour of Kangaroo Island's Dudley Peninsula, taking in Pennington Bay, an eucalyptus distillery, and a honey farm, with optional winery stops. You'll travel with an experienced guide who can position you to spot wildlife in natural settings. Hotel or port pickup is included. Morning or afternoon tea is provided; the full-day version includes a gourmet picnic or BBQ. Note: this tour finishes after the last cruise-ship tender departs, so it's not suitable for same-day cruise passengers.

What to expect
You'll be collected from your Kangaroo Island hotel or port in a comfortable 4WD vehicle. The guide will drive you to the Dudley Peninsula and Pennington Bay, stopping at key spots where you have the best chance to observe local wildlife in their natural habitat. During the tour you'll visit a eucalyptus distillery and honey farm; if wine interests you, your guide can arrange stops at local wineries. Morning or afternoon tea is provided partway through. The full-day option includes a gourmet picnic or BBQ lunch.
Throughout, the guide uses their experience to time visits and position the group for wildlife viewing rather than just passing through. The tour wraps with drop-off back at your hotel or port. Timing runs later than cruise-ship tender schedules, so same-day cruise departures won't work.
