South Australia embodies everything you imagine Australia to be and more. Advertised as “a brilliant blend” it is hard to think of a better description to sum up the state. The state capital is Adelaide, a true embodiment of laid-back Aussie life, with a café culture reminiscent of Europe. Culture vultures in particular will fall in love with Adelaide, with the fine collection of colonial architecture, fascinating museums and stylish art galleries.

Only a short drive out of the city are world renowned wine regions – Adelaide Hills, Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale – all of which boast a whole host of world-famous wineries and eateries where you can while away many hours.

And of course who could take a trip to South Australia without heading into the great Aussie Outback. The mining town of Coober Pedy –an opal mining town literally built into and under the ground – is the gateway to the Outback on the long road through to the Northern Territory. So as you see, there is something for everyone in South Australia - a “brilliant blend” indeed!
