Discover Adelaide
Perhaps the most underrated city in Australia, Adelaide offers far more than its title of the ‘City of Churches’ might suggest. The locals are aware of how good they have it – Adelaide is consistently rated as one of the world’s top 10 most liveable cities. But there are more than just a few reasons for tourists to experience the South Australian capital too.
Surrounded by Australia’s most famous wine regions, lined from top to bottom with stunning beaches, and home to the country’s most vibrant festival scene (particularly during what the locals call ‘Mad March’), Adelaide combines a small town feel with the fun and excitement of a leading city.

Places to see
What are Adelaide’s must-see attractions?
Adelaide Botanic Garden: Established in 1857 and spread over a massive 51 hectares, this garden is one of the most impressive in Australia. The Palm House, Rose Garden and Bicentennial Conservatory are highlights.
Adelaide Central Market: This is one of Australia’s largest fresh produce markets, and the most visited place in South Australia with 8 million visitors every year. The perfect place for lunch, in other words.
Adelaide Oval: Described by many as the most beautiful stadium in Australia, get a different perspective by braving the heights with the Adelaide Oval Roof Climb.
National Wine Centre: Surrounded by the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills wine regions, Adelaide is considered to be one of the 10 wine capitals of the world. Fancy yourself an expert? You can learn all about the state’s famous produce at the National Wine Centre.
Glenelg Beach: A beautiful stretch of sand that features a jetty, a theme park and plenty of opportunities to indulge, Glenelg is where Adelaideans spend their summer.
Find the right hotel
What is the best area to stay in Adelaide?
The CBD: The heart of the action, the square mile that makes up the Adelaide CBD is defined by its order and symmetry, wide streets and pristine parks. From here you can easily get to the rest of Adelaide and its surrounding regions.
North Adelaide: The leafy suburb to the north of the CBD is full of gorgeous buildings, many of which date back to the 1800s. Surrounded by greenery, it’s here that you’ll find St Peter’s Cathedral and Adelaide Oval.
Glenelg: Adelaide’s famous beachside suburb is home to a beautiful promenade, a long jetty and more white sand than you can poke a stick at. The beach is always buzzing in summer, although you can leave your surfboard at home – there are no waves to be found here.
Norwood: A lively, upper class suburb to the east of the CBD, ‘The Parade’ is one of Adelaide’s best places to shop. Norwood does food well too, with a strong migrant community offering up endless dining options.
Adelaide Hills: While the Barossa and McLaren Vale take the limelight, the cool climate wine region of the Adelaide Hills is every bit as spectacular. A short drive from the CBD, in the Hills you can properly disconnect.
