Southern Wine & Wildlife

Days 1 to 5. Kangaroo Island [B, L, D (Days 2 to 5 only)]

You will be based at a traditional homestead for three nights.

Days 8 & 9. Gawler Ranges [B, L, D]

Transfer north to the Gawler Ranges, which provide one of the most prolific wildlife experiences in Australia, Red, and Grey Kangaroos (often in their hundreds) and Emus set amongst spectacular scenery with rarely a person in sight. Spend you evenings under canvas and enjoy the canopy of stars.

Days 10 & 11. Baird Bay [B, L, D]

Transfer south to the Great Australian Blight and Baird Bay, where you spend two nights at a beautifully appointed beach lodge. During your time here you will be able to watch Southern Right Whales and their calves frolick in the water, swim with dolphins and sealions in the shallow waters of Baird Bay, or simply go on long beach walks.

Days 12 to 14. Homeward [B, L, D (Days 12 to 13 only)]

Transfer along the coastline back to Adelaide. On the way you should get good views of Southern Right Whales (May to October) and their calves. Spend a final night in Adelaide before heading home. Arrive into the UK on Day 14.
