Self-guided tours are available anytime and take approximately 10 minutes. Emu Ridge Eucalyptus Oil Distillery is a family-owned business and has been a popular Kangaroo Island tourist attraction since 1991. They invite you to take yourself on their informative self-tour so you can enjoy the sights at your own pace . Learn the history and how the unique Kangaroo Island Narrow-leaf Mallee is grown, harvested, and distilled to produce their amazing and versatile 100% pure Australian Eucalyptus Oil and natural products. One of their friendly staff will get you started with a delicious Eucalyptus and Honey sweet, you will enjoy a short presentation and a brief four-minute video showing historical and recent footage of the oil production process of what was once the major industry on Kangaroo Island. After the video, you will be provided with a map and informative booklet that will lead you through your tour. Beginning at the shop, you will head out to the distillery, passing our two curious resident emus and the original Macgillivray Post Office along the way while enjoying the natural bush setting and collection of antique farm implements, and equipment dotted about the grounds.
