Wonder if you’ve heard enough about Adelaide from other travellers who’ve already visited? Have you been told that a short stay is all you need to experience the capital of South Australia? Well, let’s find out in this article. You just might change your mind.
Cycle across the city
One of the best things about Adelaide is that you get to explore the city by bike and really enjoy it. Wonder why? Well, one reason is obviously that you are able to hire bikes for free from certain points in the city, so set off on your two wheels and explore the parklands of Adelaide.
The city feel
If you are looking for that typical city atmosphere, you can always go for a stroll at the Rundle Mall which is a very popular activity amongst many visitors. Simply observe the locals going about their business, go window shopping and make a much-needed stop at Australia’s famous chocolaterie – Haigh’s Chocolates. The mall is conveniently located close to holiday accommodation in Adelaide CBD.
The South Australian Museum
Whether you love history or not, you are sure to enjoy a visit to the South Australian Museum. Here, you’ll find one of the largest collections of Aboriginal art at the gallery and a whole host of historical artefacts. There are a few levels dedicated to interesting Egyptian history as well, so, make sure to give this place a couple of hours.
The Adelaide Botanic Gardens
Just a 6-minute drive away from properties like Oaks Horizons, the Adelaide Botanical Gardens are perfect for a day outing when the sun is bright and shiny! Entrance to the garden is free and there are also a few free tours that begin at around 10:30 am.
