#escorted holidays

Day 6 - On the road again back into picturesque Penneshaw for lunch before boarding the ferry to Cape Jervis. We see one the very old stone houses and historic church here build by early settlers. 

Sitting out in the bay today, is one of the many cruise ships that visit Kangaroo Island at this time of the year. As the Ships must dock out in the bay, passengers are tendered into the Penneshaw wharf to the many coaches waiting to show visitors all over beautiful Kangaroo Island.  

Day 6 - Our last day on the island with still a lot to see, do and experience. 

After breakfast, we departed Kingscote and took a scenic drive to Penneshaw via American River and picturesque Pennington Bay. 

Our short stop at American River allowed passengers to walk over to ‘the shed’ to see where locals are building a replica boat that sailed into American River. 

Day 5 - We continue on to our visit to South Australia’s first sheep dairy and cheese factory - Island Pure Sheep Dairy, where we witness sheep being milked and taste some of their world class dairy products. 

Day 5 - We then travel to Clifford’s Honey Farm, home to the only pure strain of Ligurian Bee in the world where we learn about the interesting life and work of these rare honey bees. Many of our passengers enjoyed Jenny’s homemade honey ice-cream - yum!

A delicious BBQ lunch will be ready for us at the Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery followed by a tour of the distillery where they manufacture 100% pure Australian Eucalyptus Oil. 

Day 5 - After a great breakfast we travelled west to Emu Bay with its small jetty, dating back to 1918 and renowned for its beautiful 4 kilometre beach.

Our travels continued on to include a visit to the Old Wisanger School, officially opened in 1885 and provided continuous schooling to the community until the opening of Kingscote Area School in 1945.
