Wine, history and a good look around!
Fantastic tour! Russell was a fabulous tour guide- very knowledgeable about the region and it's history. He was a very safe driver as he guided the bus around some steep and windy roads. He kept us on time but still ensured we had plenty of time at each stop. We really enjoyed Hahndorf and the two wineries in the McLaren Vale area. Unfortunately, the clouds stopped us enjoying the lovely view of Adelaide from Mt Lofty but can imagine how fabulous this would be on a clear day. Driving around Adelaide CBD and learning about parts of the city was great. About half of our group left the tour in Glenelg so that was a great option for many. Would thoroughly recommend this tour to others.

A very pleasant way to learn about Adelaide's history
A very pleasant way to view Adelaide from the river! The crew of the boat was fantastic, and we got great information along the way about the history, flora, and fauna of Adelaide. The boat was very comfortable, and though we didn't partake of them they had snacks and drinks for sale which I thought was a nice touch. We were looking for a relaxed way to introduce ourselves to the city, and we found it. Highly recommended!

Fun nature kayak experience
Fun and easy kayaking experience. We were able to see some dolphins and explore mangroves. Mark, our guide, did an excellent job sharing the history of the location, information about the vegetation , sea life and wildlife. We were a small group and we had a lot of fun.

Fabulous organized tour by Zimm
We were picked up on time. Zimm explained the plan for the day as we drove from the port to the Barossa Valley where we spent the entire day. We visited some old family wineries and tasted some nice Shiraz. Zimm recommended several wines and he was on spot.
We were given plenty of time and never felt rushed. We got back to the port before last boarding.

Great trip and experience
Great commentary by Alex who was so knowledgeable and such a lovely young man.
We finally managed to see the dolphins too which was wonderful, Alex did go out of his way to seek them out.
Ships graveyard is very interesting, and never have we seen anything like that before, so a whole new experience and memory.

The bus trip was...
The bus trip was exellent. There were several sites that required strenuous walking (steep stairs and lack of time to get from A to B and back again).
If you have a mobility disabiliy - just be aware that to get to some of the sties, there is a lot of walking - some steep stairs and there is limited time to get to a site and back again.
It is a long day out - nonetheless, this trip is a good option for a solo traveller.

Fabulous great value Handorf and Barossa Valley tour!
Had a wonderful full day tour with our lovely Guide and driver Hollie! Visited the pretty German iinfluenced town of Handorf in the Adelaide Hills and on to the Barossa Valley with lunch and two wine tasting included and a stop at Maggie Beers farm. Very enjoyable day and great value!

Well thought out tour
This was a great experience. Our guide and bus driver JR was very friendly and full of great history and stories about Adelaide and the wine region. The vineyards were beautiful and we were treated specially due to this tour. Each vineyard shared a lot of information about their own wines and the process of wine making in general. We learnt a lot and tasted some great red’s. The tour is well spaced out, with great stops between vineyards to pace out the tasting. We throughly enjoyed our trip and felt it was well worth the value.

Roy the best!
Twas excellent no dull moment with the driver/tour guide, funny as.
The Victor Harbour and Fleurieu Peninsula tour was such a great experience. The scenery was breathtaking, but our driver truly made the trip special—so funny, engaging, and full of energy. There was never a quiet or boring moment. Felt more like a fun day out than a tour. Highly recommended!

The half-day tour was...
The half-day tour was excellent. Roger, the driver and tour guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. The experience struck the perfect balance between learning about the area and having free time to explore, rather than feeling like a lecture or school excursion. I also enjoyed chatting with other travellers, and the afternoon tea was genuinely delicious. As a solo traveller, I didn’t feel out of place at all, even though most of the group was older or travelling with family. It was a fun, relaxed day that I’d highly recommend.

Great trip, would totally recommend.
Paul was a great guide, giving us lots of interesting info about Aussie history, Adelaide and the areas we visited with plenty of Aussie humour. The locations were great, the boat (needs a bit of tlc) was relaxing, cruising up the river, past the conservation areas. We saw several different types of birds. The food provided on board was really good too. Would thoroughly recommend this trip.

Highly Recommend this Tour
We loved the Hop On Hop Off experience. So good to be able to choose where you want to stop and what you want to see and where to spend your time. We had a wonderful time on this tour. Laurie our guide was great really informative and helpful. I would even do this tour again and choose different venues to visit. We will be back.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
While Adelaide charms with its sunny beaches and thriving cultural scene, there’s a whole lot of South Australia to see beyond its major city. Wine fans can sample the region’s finest at Barossa Valley or McLaren Vale, and nature lovers can explore the Murray River and meet the wildlife on Kangaroo Island. Elsewhere, take in the views at Victor Harbor and visit historic towns such as Strathalbyn and Hahndorf. With transport, guides and often food and drink included, Adelaide day trips offer a hassle-free way to experience Australia’s south.
