Adelaide Tourism

Adelaide Activities

Adelaide has an international reputation for creating some of the world's best wines. A visit to the city's National Wine Center will show you how it's done. Here you can test, taste, and even make your own wine. To see how the professionals do it, a wine tour is a must. Many bus companies offer day tours to the Adelaide Hills and Barossa Valley, allowing you to meet the winemakers, taste their best drops and purchase your favorites. Echidna Tours will collect you from your accommodation and take you on one the best value wine tours in the area.

If you're feeling hungry, a trip to the Adelaide Central Markets is in order. These historic markets have operated for more than 100 years and are the largest fresh produce market in the Southern Hemisphere. They're the best place to pick up the freshest breads, fruits, vegetables, seafood, cheeses and candies in the city.

With a full tummy, pop over to the city's Migration Museum for a fascinating look at the state's history. It tells the stories of the state's migrants: who they were and why they made South Australia home.

While Adelaide offers plenty for tourists, there are some fascinating suburbs on the city's outskirts. One such town is seaside Glenelg, one of South Australia's first suburbs. Thousands flock to Glenelg to stroll along the boardwalk, shop for souvenirs and enjoy the family-friendly beaches. Glenelg also features an impressive replica of the HMS Buffalo, the ship that carried the first settlers to its shores.

Hahndorf, a German-inspired village in the Adelaide Hills, is also worth a look. Established by Lutherans in the 1800s, Hahndorf retains its European charm. Here you'll find German pubs, restaurants, and a shopping experience unlike any in the state.

Adelaide Restaurants

Adelaide boasts more restaurants per person than anywhere else in Australia, so you're bound to find something to suit your tastes and budget here.

Rundle Street offers some of the area's best cafés, with wonderful coffees and friendly service. These sidewalk eateries offer a wide range of cuisine from all corners of the world, including Greek, Thai, Japanese, Italian, Malaysian and vegetarian fare.

Adelaide's historic hotels are not only beautiful to look at; many also offer great dining options.

The British Hotel, established in 1838, specializes in modern Australian cuisine. You can let the staff wait on you or cook your own meal on the courtyard barbeque.

For an authentic Irish experience, try the Daniel O'Connell Hotel. With its Irish bar staff and friendly atmosphere, this is a great place for a meal and a few pints of Guinness. The menu offers a unique blend of Irish and Australian fare, including Annie Killow's Bangers and Mash and Kildare Kangaroo Fillet.
