We did two wonderful tours at Hanson Bay Wildlife Sanctuary.
My husband and I are travelling in SA from the UK and spending a week on Kangaroo Island. We are very interested in wildlife and conservation and we were particularly keen to learn more about the bush fire and subsequent regeneration. We did the Nocturnal Adventure Tour with our guide Sidney and two other guests, this lasted for two hours. The following morning we did the Guided Koala Walk and Bush Fire Ecology Tour with Amy which took an hour and a half and when we were the only guests. Both tours were excellent. Both guides were expert at spotting koalas and we saw several with their babies. In addition we saw other animals, birds and plants and learnt so much else about the flora and fauna of Hanson Bay and KI. Both guides had a very broad knowledge, were keen to answer all our questions and each had a different story to tell so there was very little repetition over the two tours. Worth every penny.

Very good contact with the guide. We were able to approach the animals in their wildlife and observe them easily. Very good experience in family !

Sunset with animals
Seth took us on our sunset tour and it was fantastic to see the animals in this environment especially to see the comeback of the environment post 2020 fires. Seth was generous with his time and knowledge and the animals were all comfortable with us roaming around between or under them. The sunset and star gazing added to the experience.
Operator response
Thanks for visiting and supporting our sanctuary. It is like a night club. Things really start hopping when the sun goes down. Seth grew up in the district and has a life time of experiences that he loves to share.

Hanson Bay is the Best Tour!
We did a sunset tour with our guide Seth. It was definitely the highlight of our Kangaroo Island Trip. We saw kangaroos, wallabies, and my favorite koalas! Seth was knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and fun! My five and nine year old loved the red light flashlights to spot wildlife. The tour we went on the koalas were extremely active. The location of the sanctuary was extremely close to other Flinders Chase activities, but this one was by far our favorite!
Operator response
We are so glad you enjoyed your tour with Seth. He grew up nearby so has a lifetime of local experiences and he loves to share them.

Koala towards evening
Meet the koalas in the evening. The person who took us around spoke slow and understandable English, we saw several koalas at very close range and even two quarrelsome koalas making an incredible noise. A wonderful experience.

Excellent evening ramble
We had an enjoyable and relaxing informative walk through the bushland,we saw a lot of Kangaroo, wallaby and koala enjoying the early evening. Felt one with nature
Operator response
The sanctuary is like a night club. When the the sun goes down things start hopping.! Especially after a hot day the bushland literally comes alive at night. Thanks for visiting.

Fantastic
Fantastic experience. Saw loads of koalas and other wildlife. Fiona pir your guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. I very highly recommend this tour. Ethical organisation with animals completely wild and undisturbed and left to have a normal wild life. Wonderful - thank you!!
Operator response
We are so glad you enjoyed your ethical wildlife tour. Observation of wildlife not interaction with the wildlife. This ethos creates sublime experiences.
