Wine, wildlife, and wonders... just a hop beyond Melbourne!
If you've only ever ventured to Australia’s eastern cities, you’re in for a treat. South Australia is full of hidden gems and unforgettable adventures. Did you know a direct flight from Auckland to Adelaide is just 50 minutes longer than to Melbourne? Trust us, those extra minutes in the air are well worth it!
Adelaide, often called the ‘20-minute city’, is the perfect base to explore everything South Australia has to offer. Picture yourself strolling Adelaide's leafy streets, exploring cultural treasures like the State Library and Art Gallery on North Terrace, or indulging in a taste sensation at one of over 700 eateries lining buzzing spots like Gouger Street, Rundle Street, and Hutt Street.
For shoppers and café lovers, Rundle Mall is the heartbeat of Adelaide’s vibrant shopping scene, while Adelaide Central Market, one of Australia's largest fresh markets, is a haven for food lovers and artisan enthusiasts alike.
Fancy some sun, sea, and sand? Jetty Road and the sparkling beaches of Glenelg await—perfect for family fun, a romantic sunset stroll, or café-hopping in style.
Of course, you can't miss the legendary Barossa Valley, just under an hour’s drive from Adelaide’s CBD, renowned for award-winning wineries and sumptuous foodie delights.
Journey onwards into the lush Adelaide Hills, where charming Hahndorf village beckons with traditional German bakeries, boutique stores, and old-world charm?
Feeling adventurous? Cruise down the mighty Murray River on a historic paddlewheeler, or captain your own luxury houseboat with mates. Spot local wildlife, watch the landscapes drift by, and create unforgettable memories on the water.
Whether you've got a week or more, South Australia's blend of scenic beauty, culinary gems, cultural treasures, and genuine hospitality promises your Best. Holiday. Ever!

I really do have a passion for travel especially visiting new destinations.
I very rarely spend my holidays at home. I'm usually on a plane with husband Mike - suitcases over packed as usual.
We enjoy being active on holiday - walking 800 kms across Spain on the Camino, biking through Latvia and Estonia.
I equally enjoy a good beach holiday such as Santorini, Fiji and Queensland.
We also manage to fit in visiting children and grandchildren in London, Hong Kong and Sydney.
