If, like us, you are visiting Kangaroo Island at least in part to see wildlife, consider this tour required: many species are nocturnal, and with many dirt roads and dark driving, you’ll want a guide who knows where to look. Also: private groups get to see more. Colin promised us a chance to see kangaroos, wallabies, koalas and penguins and, amazingly, delivered on all. He was a highly genial host and quite knowledgeable about the nonhuman residents. A marvelous evening out!

One of the best experiences you can have on the island. Colin is awesome and the island is brilliant, teeming with beautiful wildlife. 10/10!

The tour just ended, and honestly, it was the best experience I’ve had on Kangaroo Island! I’m incredibly grateful for all the new information I learned—it was my first time hearing so many fascinating facts about animals. We saw tiny penguins, both small and large kangaroos and even managed to spot a few koalas in the trees. I’m still overwhelmed with emotions after this adventure! As an animal lover, this tour was everything I could have hoped for and even more. If you’re wondering whether it’s worth the price, I have the answer for you. The night “safari” on Kangaroo Island is an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime. This isn’t just a regular visit to a zoo—it’s a real journey in search of wildlife!

We were fortunate enough to be the only ones on the tour. We were had a gorgeous night and were escorted to prime viewing spots. It was informative fun and we were lucky enough to see many animals in action.
