Remarkable Rocks
Just 20 minutes drive, perched above the sea in Flinders Chase National Park, the impressive Remarkable Rocks form what appear to be a cluster of precariously balanced granite boulders. This stunning work of nature has been shaped by the erosive forces of wind, sea spray and rain over some 500 million years. The golden orange lichen covering some of the rocks offers visitors wonderful photo opportunities at different times of the day. Interpretation signs share the story of how these intriguing rocks were formed. There is a viewing platform providing a vantage point for disabled access. The area also provides an excellent vantage point for viewing the photogenic Casuarina Islets.
Admirals Arch
Take a 5 minute drive to Admirals Arch, a natural rock arch created by amazing forces of nature. It's situated within Flinders Chase National Park on Kangaroo Island. You can access the boardwalk around the cliff face which leads to a viewing platform overlooking the arch. The arch is sculpted by weathering and erosion from the sea over thousands of years. To reach the arch there is a purpose-built boardwalk, it’s steep with steps at the end that take you to see the arch itself. If you can’t make it down to the arch, the scenery along the way is still well worth a journey along the boardwalk. Fur-seals often play among the rocks. These dark brown seals feed at sea but return to land to rest and breed. In summer, each of the large males establishes a territory with a number of females. You can often see Fur-seal pups playing near the rock pools beneath the arch.

5.00This trip was exceptional from start to finish. Liz kept us informed from the moment we made our booking. Kangaroo Island is a must see destination. Each place we visited was absolutely amazing. Food was great. We had considered a self drive tour. This small group guided tour is definitely a better option.

5.00It was such a fun and new experience! We saw wild animals like koalas and kangaroos in the wilderness and the ocean and the observatory were also very beautiful. My best memory is riding a buggy in Little Sahara and seeing wild koalas. I had many experiences that I can’t do in Japan!️

5.00It was a full two-day tour. It was a very fulfilling tour, stopping the car to take photos and commentary when we spotted wild kangaroos and koalas along the way! We also rode a buggy in the Little Desert and met sea lions and seals on the second day! They also prepared a guidebook in Japanese, so I think Japanese people can enjoy it easily!!

5.00Fantastic trip with Liz. Great value for money! food transport, passes and hotel all included. Liz thought of absolutely everything and created a great atmosphere throughout. Loved getting close up to wildlife, the spectacular scenery and the slower pace of this tour. Am so glad we decided on the 2 day tour in a small group. We really did have time to stand and stare - no pressure rushing back to the bus at anytime. I particularly enjoyed the buggy ride in the sand dunes to see the wildlife, at 65 I was a little apprehensive but I had no need to be. It was such great fun and our wonderful french driver was so entertaining. Highly recommend the tour 5 star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. Plus. Rowena and Jenny

5.00In November, 2025, I took an all-inclusive, two-day small-group Kangaroo Island tour guided by Liz from "Discover Adelaide and Beyond." This was an unforgettable adventure, and without exaggeration, one of the best tour experiences I’ve had in over 50 years of touring. Our guide was friendly, cheerful, knowledgeable, and a truly delightful person. Liz provided seamless organization, an incredible wealth of local knowledge, impeccable pacing, and an overall fabulous time. One important logistical aspect that impressed me tremendously was that Discover Adelaide and Beyond offered the only tour I found that began and ended in Adelaide. I’m not sure how other companies expect visitors to get from Adelaide to the Sealink Ferry Terminal at Cape Jervis 110 kilometers (68 miles) away, but apparently they expected me to figure that part out. Instead, Liz picked me up and returned me to my hotel in a clean and comfortable vehicle. The drive from Adelaide to Cape Jervis was pleasant and informative, after which we took the Sealink ferry to the island. We began our KI adventure by visiting the historic Frenchman’s Rock in Penneshaw. After that, we learned the history of lighthouses on the island. I got some spectacular seascape photos at the Cape Willoughby Lighthouse. Lunch included a tasting flight and a delicious meat pie at False Cape Winery. We visited the Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery and took a guided beach walk at the Seal Bay Conservation Park. Watching a pair of baby sea lions happily playing just a few feet away (with an alert mama close by) was a memorable experience. As a wildlife photographer, I appreciated how Liz expertly blended wildlife encounters with stunning scenery. Supported by her local knowledge, I got some amazing images of colorful native birds, shy koalas, kangaroos, emus, sea lions, and more. After a day of incredible sights, we checked into a comfortable oceanfront hotel and enjoyed a great dinner accompanied by a lovely South Australia wine, then rested and recharged for the next day's adventures. After a hearty breakfast at the hotel the next morning, we visited Little Sahara, where we had an exciting 4x4 ride over sand dunes and through huge gumtrees to see koalas in the wild. A picnic on a spectacular beach in Hanson Bay was a great way to enjoy a midday break. We then drove to the western part of the island to Flinders Chase National Park, which provided an awe inspiring landscape of rugged coastlines and unique geological formations. The Remarkable Rocks were breathtaking, with these ancient granite formations glowing in the sunlight. Next, we visited Admiral's Arch, where the rock archway provided a dramatic backdrop for photographing the New Zealand fur seal colony. We visited a wildlife sanctuary where we got up close and personal with a couple of adorable baby kangaroos, an emu, and other native animals, providing even more opportunities for great photos. We stopped at a local honey farm for a taste of island honey and mead, while learning about KI’s unique Liguran bees. Before heading back to the ferry, we had a lovely dinner at the Penneshaw Pub in the charming town of Kingscote. Liz’s excellent planning ensured that we had time to relax and reflect on the day's incredible experiences. The return ferry ride and journey back to Adelaide was smooth and comfortable. An expert on this part of South Australia, Liz provided interesting and sometimes hilarious commentary. From seeing kangaroos, koalas, and sea lions up close to exploring dramatic coastal landscapes, this tour provided a perfect balance of guided experiences and the freedom to soak in the variety and natural beauty of this island. The logistics and organization were managed flawlessly, making this an effortless, stress-free experience. Discover Adelaide and Beyond provided a first-class Kangaroo Island experience. The two-day tour was perfectly paced, allowing us to see the best of what the island had to offer without feeling rushed. The combination of wildlife viewing, stunning natural landscapes, and local flavor was truly exceptional. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the trip even more enjoyable with her insights and passion for South Australia. This is an exceptional, highly recommended two-day Kangaroo Island tour experience for anyone visiting South Australia.
