South Australia

A D E L A I D E , T H E B O U T I Q U E C I T Y Immerse yourself in the city Adelaide is a friendly city, and it’s easy to see why the locals are so relaxed. Fringed by 30-odd kilometres of unbroken sandy beach to the west, the Adelaide Hills to the east, and world-renowned wine regions to the north and south, the finer things in life are right on our doorstep. The city centre is a 20-minute drive from the airport. Laid out in a symmetrical grid for easy navigation, the city is surrounded by a green belt of parklands. It is flat and very walkable, but there are also free public transport options throughout. Restaurants, cafés, bars and pubs to surprise and delight your culinary senses are dotted among major cultural landmarks, easily accessible on foot, bike or electric scooter. Adelaide is the central hub for all the artisanal food available across the state. The best way to experience this in a nutshell is to visit the Adelaide Central Market, the largest undercover fresh produce market in the Southern Hemisphere. Located in the geographical heart of the city, the market is a must-do for all visitors, for coffee, a meal, or just to soak in the buzzing atmosphere and flavours of the state. For a bit of South Australian flair, wander down Rundle Street in the city’s east end and explore boutique retailers and local designers. Throughout the year, partake in street parties, craft markets and festivals galore. Immerse yourself in the cultural precinct of North Terrace, home to galleries and museums, wine centre and the Adelaide Botanic Gardens, a green oasis in an already green city. Explore the history of the Kaurna people, the original Aboriginal custodians of the land, through walking tours, interpretive centres and art galleries. With Adelaide as your jumping-off point, it’s so easy to explore beaches, wine regions, outback, the Murray River, and so much more at any time of year.
