SOUTH AUSTRALIA is the gateway to the unique national landscapes of the Flinders Ranges and iconic Kangaroo Island. Adelaide is at the centre of it all, and not to be forgotten. It is a city of fine food & wine, numerous events, a burgeoning bar scene, and unique stone architecture. Sample the delights at the Central Market, catch a tram to Glenelg, and head to the Adelaide Hills for a afternoon tea or some wine tasting. The Flinders Ranges is a vast extraordinary landscape millions of years old and only 400km north of Adelaide. You can do guided Aboriginal walks, experience rugged 4wd treks, enjoy plenty of bush walks and at the end of the day, camp in luxury safari tents. Kangaroo Island by contrast is an island sanctuary for wildlife and natural rugged beauty. Only 30 minutes by plane from Adelaide, more than one third of the island consists of national parks and conservation areas. Kangaroo Island is a foodie haven as well packing in many animal & nature based experiences such as sea lion, penguin & dolphin viewing. Not only that, South Australia is regarded as one of the great wine capitals of the world and home to 18 winery regions, the most famous being the Barossa Valley.
