Discover the Artisan Australia

After hosting Australia’s largest annual travel and tourism event this past April, South Australia invites travelers to discover the unparalleled food, wine, and wildlife experience that make the state so incredible. Slightly off the tourist track, South Australia is a hidden gem that is perfect for travelers who are looking for an authentic Aussie adventure.

Discover Adelaide

The adventure begins in Adelaide, the state’s charming capital city. Combining exceptional food and wine, art, shopping, a bustling bar scene and proximity to beautiful metropolitan beaches, Adelaide is the gateway to some of the most awe-inspiring parts of the country.

Get up close to iconic wildlife

South Australia is arguably the best place in the country to encounter iconic wildlife and these once-in-a-lifetime experiences should not be missed. Just a 45-minute flight from Adelaide is Kangaroo Island, an area that is best known as a “zoo without fences”. It is not uncommon for visitors to spot kangaroos, koalas, echidnas, wallabies, possums, and plenty of other magnificent creatures all in one visit. Marine wildlife experiences are also abundant throughout the state. From swimming with wild dolphins, to cage diving with great white sharks, to diving with elusive leafy sea dragons, there is an adventure to suit everyone’s taste.  

Explore rugged outback

Of course, a trip to Australia is not complete without an adventure through the outback. Just a 45-minute flight from Adelaide lies 540 million-year-old landscape that is as rugged as it is beautiful. In the day travelers will see rare native animals, towering granite peaks and ancient gorges before retiring to their outback accommodation – with options ranging from luxurious resorts to campsites under the stars.

Experience Australia’s wine capital

You can’t get far from Adelaide without encountering one of the states’ world-renowned wine regions. There are more than 200 cellar doors on Adelaide’s doorstop, including the Barossa, Adelaide Hills, and McLaren Vale. From iconic brands such as Penfolds and Jacob’s Creek to charming owner-operated wineries, there is something for every wine lover.
