Discovering Adelaide
No trip to South Australia would be complete without visiting the wine region of Barossa Valley. With over 150 wineries and 80 cellar doors on offer you'll be able to taste a large variety of the best wine and food in the region. With the Barossa Valley only being about an hour drive from the Adelaide CBD, it's well worth the drive!
If you're travelling to Adelaide during the summer season, drive to one of the many beaches they have on offer to cool off. A popular location for beachgoers is Glenelg Beach which is only about 20 minutes' drive from the main CBD. Here you will hopefully see some beautiful marine life and maybe even experience a live music festival depending on the season!
Just further along south you will find a popular destination for Adelaide locals called Victor Harbour. Make sure you visit the stunning beaches, indulge in local food and go whale watching while you're there! From here, you can visit Granite Island which is linked to the mainland by a bridge which visitors can cross via a horse-drawn tram.
With an endless amount of road trip opportunities available for you in this city, Adelaide should not be overlooked!
