Best Things To Do in Adelaide

Adelaide is one of Australia's most liveable and walkable cities — a compact, elegant city planned on a grid with parklands ringing the city centre, world-class cultural institutions, and an access to wine country, beaches, and wildlife that is genuinely unmatched by any comparable Australian city. The city's reputation for hosting Australia's finest festivals has added another compelling dimension for visitors.

The South Australian Museum is among Australia's finest natural history institutions, with an extraordinary Pacific cultures collection. The Art Gallery of South Australia houses excellent Australian and international art. The Adelaide Botanic Garden is one of the world's great city gardens. Glenelg Beach, accessible by tram from the city centre, is Adelaide's iconic coastal destination. The Hills towns of Hahndorf (Australia's oldest surviving German settlement) and the Adelaide Hills wine region are just 30 minutes away, and the Barossa Valley is under an hour.
