If you are looking to hire a car on Kangaroo Island, there are currently three companies who offer car rentals of which you can organize to pick up your car rental at either the Kingscote Airport or the Penneshaw Ferry Terminal.
While the majority of roads between Penneshaw, American River, Kingscote, Parndana and Flinders Chase National Park are all sealed (Bitumen), there are a number of unsealed (Gravel and Limestone) roads across the island.
Please note some companies will not cover insurance if you drive at night and have an accident.
- Drive carefully and lookout for the wildlife -
(especially at Dawn and Dusk)
Please ensure you book your transport over to Kangaroo Island well ahead of your Glamping Holiday as flights and ferries to the Island can book out weeks ahead of time during peak periods.
While there are NO Taxi or public transport services on our little piece of paradise, there are a number of hire car companies who operate on the Island. If driving, please take your time to explore Kangaroo Island's unique scenery and drive within your means as not all of the Island's roads are sealed with bitumen, with many gravel roads leading to and from the wilder camping spots and tourist attractions.
And if you stop mid-trip to take a photo of a Koala or another cute animal, please do not park in the middle of the road, locals and other tourists will thank you for being safe.
