We booked the ferry and a days car hire with KIC. The service was excellent and the price was reasonable. Staff are friendly and informative. Without their reasonable pricing we wouldn't have travelled to the Island. Please support Kangaroo Island Connect (KIC), online booking is easy and cheaper. Thank you KIC
