Rise bright and early to catch your 6:30 am SeaLink transfer from Adelaide to Cape Jervis. From here, jump on a 45-minute ferry ride across the Backstairs Passage to Penneshaw, where your Untamed Escapes guide will be waiting to welcome you to Kangaroo Island. After a group introduction and trip overview, learn how you can make a difference during your adventure by becoming a citizen scientist and contributing to wildlife conservation and recovery efforts in partnership with Passport to Recovery. This morning, choose your own wild adventure: Optional Extra – Swim with Dolphins or Seals Join a two-hour marine safari with Kangaroo Island Ocean Safari and dive into crystal-clear waters to swim with wild bottlenose dolphins or long-nosed seals. Guided by passionate marine experts, this is a respectful, awe-inspiring experience that brings you face-to-face with nature at its most playful. Whether an experienced snorkeller or a first-timer, it's an unforgettable splash of adventure. (See more in Optional Extras below.) Not snorkelling? Set off on the Ironstone Hill hike, weaving through regenerating sheoak woodlands with sweeping coastal views steeped in history. Afterwards, visit a local honey farm to learn about Kangaroo Island's world-famous Ligurian bees, the only pure strain left on Earth. Enjoy a tasting and a relaxed picnic lunch before heading to Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Oil Distillery to discover the secrets behind this iconic Aussie product. In the afternoon, the group reunites at Dudley Wines, a family-owned vineyard with sweeping ocean views located on the clifftop. Enjoy a wine tasting, kick back on the lawn with incredible ocean views, and toast to the start of your island adventure. By late afternoon, we arrive at our eco-campsite, aptly named Happiness. Tucked into native bushland with private access to stunning Antechamber Bay, it's the perfect place to unwind. Walk to the beach, watch the sun dip low, and soak in the serenity. Tonight, roll out your swag under the stars and fall asleep to the sounds of nature—pure, untamed magic. Accommodation: Swag camping with amenities at our private campground, Happiness Distance Travelled: Approx. 280 km

After breakfast, it's time to kick off the day with one of Kangaroo Island's most iconic wildlife encounters. At Seal Bay, join a guided 45-minute tour with National Parks & Wildlife rangers and get up close with Australia's third-largest colony of endangered sea lions—around 800 call this place home. Wander the boardwalk through coastal dunes, spotting sea lions snoozing in the sun, sprawled across the beach, or even lying right across the path. Learn about the species' fight for survival and the conservation efforts helping to protect them. Next up: an island icon. We head west to Flinders Chase National Park, a wild wonderland of rugged cliffs, native bush, and jaw-dropping rock formations. Stroll the boardwalk at Admirals Arch, keeping an eye out for New Zealand fur seals lounging below. Then prepare to be wowed by the legendary Remarkable Rocks—500 million years in the making and as photogenic as they come. After a full day of wild beauty and epic sights, we roll back to camp for a chilled evening. Take some time to relax, swap stories with your travel mates, or wander down to the beach before dinner under the stars. Accommodation: Swag camping with amenities at our private campground, Happiness Distance Travelled: Approx. 350 km

Kick off the final day with a refreshing morning bush walk near camp before packing up and hitting the road. First stop is Cape Willoughby, home to South Australia's first lighthouse. Perched above dramatic cliffs, it offers sweeping views and stories from Kangaroo Island's rich maritime past. Next up is Pennington Bay, where powerful swells crash against the southern coastline. From here, tackle the 500 steps up to Prospect Hill, one of the island's highest vantage points. The panoramic views are absolutely worth the effort. Afterwards, at Kingscote Jetty, there's time for a refreshing swim if you're keen before we head inland to Duck Lagoon. A peaceful spot surrounded by bushland and known for its laid-back vibe and koala sightings. By lunchtime, we roll into Stokes Bay, a local favourite with a hidden rock tunnel leading to a seriously stunning beach. Enjoy a picnic lunch and take some time to unwind on the sand. Before we wrap, we make one last stop at Emu Bay, voted Australia's best beach! With its long stretch of white sand and clear blue water, it's the perfect spot for a stroll, a quick dip, and a meaningful beach clean-up to help keep this pristine coastline wild and beautiful. After an unforgettable few days, we arrive back in Penneshaw to catch the 5:30 pm ferry to Cape Jervis. From there, your bus connection will have you back in Adelaide by around 9:00 pm. A little salty, a lot inspired, and glowing from three days of island adventure. Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch Distance Travelled: Approx. 340 km

Bookings Terms & Conditions

These booking terms and conditions apply to bookings you make with Peterpans Adventure Travel PTY LTD (ACN 673 404 389) trading as Peterpans Travel (whether over the phone or by email) as well as online bookings you make on our website. We will rely on the authority of the person making the booking to act on behalf of any other traveller on the booking and that person will bind all such travellers to these terms and conditions.

The ticket(s) (“voucher(s)”) for your travel or experience are booked by us on your behalf with various Service Providers. Each Service Provider may have their own terms and conditions applying to your travel. It is important that you read the relevant and corresponding brochure for each of your bookings in order to understand all applicable terms and conditions. If you require additional information to that contained in the brochure then we recommend that you contact the Service Provider for further clarification.

BOOKING CONFIRMATIONS

Your responsibilities: Open tickets: You must book your travel dates in advance with the individual Service Provider as per the details provided on your voucher.

Tickets with booked dates: It is your responsibility to ensure you redeem your vouchers on the dates booked. If you wish to change these dates you must organise it with the Service Provider directly, with adequate notice. You must reconfirm all booked dates 48 hours prior to travel (minimum guide only) or in the manner stated on your voucher. If applicable, dietary requirements should also be confirmed at this time.

CANCELLATIONS and REFUNDS

Credit card fees, and additional fees paid to us for deposits of accommodation, transport and luggage storage are not transferable or refundable.
Please note that deposits on bookings are also non-refundable but may be used as credit towards future bookings.

Cancellations by service providers

If a service provider cancels your booking for any reason you WILL NOT be charged any cancellation fee and will be entitled to a full refund (other than any amount we are charged on your behalf by the service provider). ALL TRANSPORT AND ACCOMMODATION is NON-REFUNDABLE, in some cases it may be transferable.

Cancellations by you outside of 14 days from the date of travel

Where you provide us with at least 14 days’ notice that you wish to cancel your booking for any reason, you will be charged a 10% cancellation fee and will be entitled to a refund (in addition to any amount we are charged on your behalf by the service provider) or can transfer, with no fee, any balance (in addition to any amount we are charged as a cancellation fee on your behalf by the service provider) to a new booking or credit voucher. ALL TRANSPORT AND ACCOMMODATION is NON-REFUNDABLE, in some cases it may be transferable.

Cancellations by you within 14 days of the date of travel

Where you provide us with less than 14 days notice that you wish to cancel your booking for any reason, you will be charged a 30% cancellation fee and will be entitled to a refund ( in addition to any amount we are charged on your behalf by the service provider) or can transfer, with a $30 per product transfer fee, any balance (in addition to any amount we are charged as a cancellation fee on your behalf by the service provider) to a new booking or credit voucher. ALL TRANSPORT AND ACCOMMODATION is NON REFUNDABLE, in some cases they may be transferable.

In addition, if a Service Provider charges us for the cancelled travel you must also pay us the amount that we are charged on your behalf by the Service Provider. It is, therefore, possible your cancellation fees could be up to 100% of the cost of the booking, regardless of whether travel has commenced (for example cancellations made within 24hrs of travel or certain flight bookings). The Cancellation Fee will apply in all cases where a tour is able to run. For example, if you are unable to reach a tour due to an “act of God” (for example a road is cut off due to flooding) the normal Cancellation Fee will apply if the tour still runs in your absence or would have run but for your absence. If a tour or other travel service is cancelled by the Service Provider, we will refund you in full the amount paid for the tour or other travel service. This full refund is subject to a fully refundable amount being given to our agency from the supplier who is cancelling. We highlight here that all suppliers have different cancellation terms.

All refunds will occur in the local currency and will be refunded to the same card that payment was made with. If your credit card uses a different currency, the amount refunded may be different from the original amount paid due to exchange rate fluctuations. We are not liable for these fluctuations, or any fees your bank charges.

Please note that in the case of natural disasters (e.g. flood, fire, cyclone, etc.), many Service Providers do not offer refunds, and we may therefore be unable to provide a refund to you. We strongly recommend that you take out comprehensive travel insurance to cover this situation.

The 10% or 30% agency cancellation fee does not apply to: Dive Courses where you fail a Dive Medical test; or Skydives cancelled by the Service Provider within 3 days of booking due to weather, in which case a full refund will apply.

Where a refund or other payment applies, you may choose to transfer the full cost of your booking to another tour. However, a transfer fee of $30 may apply. While we aim to process refunds swiftly, high-demand situations (such as natural disasters) may result in delays.

We strongly recommend purchasing a travel insurance policy at the time of booking to protect yourself against unexpected cancellations and changes. Depending on your policy, your insurance provider may cover up to 100% of cancellation fees and other costs incurred. Cancellation fees for tours and bus bookings can be up to 100%, so having appropriate coverage can help minimise financial risk.

Please act responsibly and with respect on your travels. All Service Providers reserve the right to cancel bookings based on recommendation from another provider due to misconduct/misbehaviour during another stage of their trip. We will treat this as any normal cancellation and charge the above-mentioned Cancellation Fee, plus any Service Provider fees.

TRAVEL INSURANCE

We endorse the recommendation of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade that all travellers take out travel insurance. It is your personal responsibility to purchase your own travel insurance to cover any liability which may be incurred to us or a Service Provider and other travel misadventures that you wish to be insured against. We recommend that you source travel insurance with a low excess payment, to make claiming on cancelled tours worthwhile.
