Calm and peaceful with few crowds, Adelaide and South Australia have a superb range of natural attractions waiting to be discovered.

Adelaide is surrounded by parks and gardens, Australia's festival city is just one square mile in area. Spectacularly located between the natural beauty of South Australia's rugged coastline. Adelaide is an elegant, cultured city boasting a wide selection of theatres, concert halls, art galleries, and an abundance of restaurants.

Outside the city you'll find many wonders of South Australia : from the mighty Murray River with spectacular cliffs and abundant wildlife, the picturesque Barossa Valley one of Australia's leading wine producing regions, to the opal mining town of Coober Pedy, a place so hot half the population live underground. A visit to South Australia would not be complete without a trip to Kangaroo Island.

Kangaroo Island

Kangaroo Island is Australia's third largest island, 155kms long and 55kms wide. The island can be reached by a 30 minute scenic flight from Adelaide or a 50 minute ferry crossing from Cape Jervis at the southern tip of Fleurieu Peninsula, a 90 minute drive south of Adelaide.

Surrounded by dramatic coastal scenery, secluded pristine beaches and with 21 national parks, Kangaroo Island is arguably the best place in Australia to see native animals in their natural habitat. To truly experience all this remarkable island has to offer, we highly recommend you stay for at least two days, however if your time is limited you can do day tours.
