Travel Guide to Adelaide, Australia

This is one of the most beautiful cities of Australia located on the shore. Adelaide is widely known as a large center of wine-making. All suburbs of this city are devoted to vineyards and plantations and Wine Center is one of the most famous sights in Adelaide. The center includes a small museum that demonstrates various collections of items that have at least some connection with wine making. During the excursion you will find out many interesting facts from the history of wine making and will be invited to taste best sorts of wine. Also consider visiting Barossa Valley, one of the biggest vineyards in Adelaide and surrounding regions. The vineyard can be visited during one of regular excursions to this place.

The central part of the city is, definitely, one of the most beautiful and attractive for tourists. This district is full of greenery as here are located several large parks, nice and cozy squares and there’s almost no transport. Even though the coastal line is relatively long, water rarely reaches the temperature level, which is comfortable for a human. However, small bays and gulfs are suitable for swimming all summer long. Water is very warm there, so these places are recommended even for tourists with kids.

Cruises down the Murray River remain one of the most favorite entertainments among tourists. In order to make the cruise even more enjoyable several steamers, decorated in best traditions of previous centuries, are used. These rides are very popular not only among tourists who come to see Adelaide, but also among the locals. One more thing each traveller should do is to visit the Kangaroo Island. This is the most beautiful nature reserve, where you can see several rare kangaroo breeds, watch sea lions and buy unusual honey from local apiaries.
