Trip Informations
Would you rather sip world-class wine at spectacular wineries, explore a wild landscape of geological wonders, or learn about a culture that’s prevailed for hundreds of years? On this five-day trip exploring the best of South Australia, there’s no need to choose! Walk through the awe-inspiring scenery of Ikara (Wilpena Pound) with a First Nations guide and gain a special insight into the culture of the Adnyamathanha people, wine and dine in the famed Barossa Valley, and stay on the outskirts of the vast Flinders Ranges. What better way to spend a long weekend?

Superior survey of the areas. We saw old townships, saw ancient Aboriginal rock art, tasted quality local produce. The guide pointed out wildlife along the way; there are lots of Emus, delightful. No negative parts, left with so much pride in my neighbouring state of South Australia.

Jess is a fantastic tour leader and I had a wonderful time. The current itinerary is a bit sparse though.
