Lisa Chappell experiences Barossa & the Murray River
South Australia's extraordinary variety of places to see, and experiences to enjoy, are all easily accessible from Adelaide. Base yourself in the city and join one of the many day or overnight tours, or pick up a rental car and explore at your own pace. If you're into wine and food, the world-famous Barossa is only an hour's drive away. Alternatively, a houseboat holiday on the majestic Murray River is an unforgettable way to relax and unwind. So what are you waiting for? Get a group of friends together and captain your own houseboat!
