Adelaide
The beautiful bay side city of Melbourne is Australia’s most cosmopolitan and romantic destination, offering a unique insight into a relaxed urban lifestyle that is rarely found these days - from its renowned café and bar culture to the lush green parklands which encircle the city, Melbourne gives the luxury traveller the finest experience possible.
Kangaroo Island
Easily reached by ferry or private plane, Kangaroo Island is arguably the best place in Australia to see the widest range of Australian native animals in their natural habitats. You are likely to encounter a wide range of wildlife here, including kangaroos, wallabies, penguins, echidnas, birds and more. One of Kangaroo Island’s highlights is its sea lion colonies. We also recommend a guided walk of the Seal Bay Conservation Parl.
A Tour of Barossa
The Barossa is Australia’s most celebrated wine producing region, and lies an hour’s drive from Adelaide. It is home to some of Australia’s best vineyards, including Penfolds and Jacob’s Creek. The region offers several opportunities for visitors to sample and learn about the region’s most prized product. The cuisine here strongly reflects a blend of old and new and is offered in the several local cafés and restaurants. Surrounded by vineyards, rolling hills and beautiful bushland, Barossa is a stunning holiday destination.
Murray River Highlights
Travel through the Adelaide Hills and the Mallee Outback to the Murray River, one of the world’s great rivers, and Australia’s largest. This magnificent river offers several photo opportunities, and is an ideal picnic spot. You could also take a cruise on the Proud Mary riverboat.
Swimming with Dolphins
A magical experience where you cruise out of Adelaide’s Glenelg beach resort towards the ocean. If you’re lucky, pods of dolphins will approach the boat. The experience of swimming in the ocean with the dolphins comes highly recommended. Those who are not as adventurous may watch from the boat. These highly intelligent mammals have been known to communicate with humans. You will take this cruise on the Temptation, South Australia’s first vessel to be given a licence to swim with and study these magnificent mammals.
