South Australia Trips – Tailor-Made Adelaide Itineraries

South Australia is an incredibly diverse state filled with interesting landscapes and a rich Aboriginal history. If you can’t traverse the entire state, even just the southeastern section is chock full of variety and excitement.

Start in Adelaide, the cosmopolitan coastal capital of South Australia, also known as the “City of Churches”. Nearby, Clare Valley and the Barossa contain world-class wineries and restaurants best explored on bike. Fill up on delectable dishes or take a cooking class with farm fresh ingredients (and a bottle of wine) before venturing out to the Flinders Ranges or Kangaroo Island in search of adventure.
