Thank dad for being the best dad ever this Father's Day with the ultimate South Australian trip of a lifetime! Dad will discover South Australia's best food, wine, scenery, wildlife, historic locations and attractions on SeaLink and Captain Cook Cruises new seven, eight or eleven-night Adelaide, Kangaroo Island and Murray River packages.
Save up to $600 with these fantastic combined packages which include three night's accommodation at the Majestic Roof Garden Hotel in Adelaide, a full day Ultimate Adelaide and Hahndorf tour, the 2 day Best of Kangaroo Island Tour and the three, four- or seven-night Murray Princess Cruise on the Mighty Murray river. SeaLink coach and ferry transfers are also included.
On the Ultimate Adelaide and Hahndorf tour Dad will love visiting Adelaide Oval; Haigh's Chocolates; North Adelaide; St Peter's Cathedral and Adelaide's cultural boulevard of North Terrace and its university, library, art gallery and museum. He can even enjoy some German beer tasting when the tour visits Hahndorf, Adelaide's oldest German settlement with its many cafes, shops and galleries. The full day tour features expert commentary by a local driver guide.
On Kangaroo Island dad will be totally amazed by the 2 day Best of Kangaroo Island Tour including overnight accommodation and breakfast at the Ozone Hotel, Kingscote and delicious two-course lunches on both days.
On day one visit the Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Distillery, South Australia's only Eucalyptus Oil distillery, get up close and personal with kangaroos, koalas and other nocturnal wildlife at the Kangaroo Island Wildlife Park, experience Sealions in their natural environment as they sleep, play and swim on the Seal Bay guided beach tour, and marvel at the spectacular Birds of Prey free-flight presentation.
On day two dad will learn how the delectable Ligurian honey is made at Clifford's Honey Farm, spot Koalas in Eucalyptus trees at Hanson Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, and visit Flinders Chase National Park to witness nature's breath-taking creations - Remarkable Rocks and Admirals Arch. Then he'll fall in love with the Long-Nosed Fur Seal colony before returning to Penneshaw for the return SeaLink ferry and coach to Majestic Roof Garden Hotel, Adelaide.
The next day dad will head to Mannum on a complimentary scenic coach transfer for a three, four- or seven-night Murray River cruise aboard the largest paddlewheeler in the southern Hemisphere, the PS Murray Princess.
Each day features exciting onshore day trips. Visit historic ports; Ngaut Ngaut Aboriginal Reserve; a native wildlife shelter and see a shearing show at an Australian' woolshed. Enjoy guided nature walks; wine tastings onboard or at a vineyard and cellar door and dad can get up close to the river, its 20-million-year-old cliffs and amazing plant and birdlife on the 'Dragon-Fly' Flat Bottomed Boat vessel.
On-board, dad will enjoy a range of hearty three course and buffet meals, join the Captain for a general inspection of the wheelhouse, participate in a lively quiz, play some bocce on the riverbank, relax with some fishing off the ship or simply sit back and admire the towering limestone cliffs and ever-changing river scenery from the cosy Paddlewheel Lounge or open top sun deck.
