Escape the city and discover the natural beauty, wildlife, and heritage of the Adelaide Hills on a relaxed small-group day tour with a local guide. Your journey begins at Mount Lofty Summit, where you’ll take in sweeping panoramic views over Adelaide and the coastline beyond. From this iconic viewpoint, gain a new perspective of the city before heading into the scenic Adelaide Hills. Continue to Cleland Wildlife Park, where you’ll enjoy an unhurried guided exploration of Australia’s unique native wildlife. Get up close with kangaroos and potoroos as you hand-feed these friendly locals, meet a koala, and spot fascinating native species including wombats, echidnas, emus, and dingoes. Along the way, discover the stories behind these animals and what makes each one uniquely Australian. Next, wander through Hahndorf Heritage Village, Australia’s oldest surviving German settlement, where history, culture, and local craftsmanship come together.

Take time to browse boutique artisan shops, discover local treasures, and visit the town museum to learn more about Hahndorf’s fascinating heritage. Continue your Adelaide Hills journey with a visit to Melba’s Chocolate & Confectionery, where you can see handmade treats being created, sample delicious chocolates, enjoy a coffee or ice cream, and even try locally produced goat’s cheese from the neighbouring producer. Round off the day with a relaxing afternoon stop at a local winery, where you can enjoy a glass of wine, tea, or coffee while taking in the peaceful surrounds of the Adelaide Hills. Then sit back and enjoy the scenic drive back to Adelaide.
