Kangaroo Island is a pristine wilderness - a place that has offered protection to substantial populations of native Australian animals, a place of beauty and a place of escape. Kangaroo Island (or ‘KI' as the locals call it) is also big and surprisingly diverse. If you traverse its 155km length you'll find soaring cliffs, dense forests, towering sand dunes, wetlands and massive arcs of bone white beach. Spend two full days exploring this beautiful area. Some 4,400 folk live here, most of them primary producers, many of them descended from Islanders who have farmed the land and fished the seas for generations. You are surrounded by fertile lands and rich waters, Kangaroo Island produces some of Australia's finest gourmet foods, such as fresh King George Whiting, sheep's cheese, marron, a unique variety of honey and an exciting range of varietal wines. You will also find rich histories, a thriving arts community, and a range of accommodation options ranging from outdoor swags to lighthouse keeper's cottages to super-chic retreats. Spend three days exploring this diverse landscape private guide assistance. Stay at the exclusive Southern Ocean Lodge includes meals and untouched views.
