When one thinks of South Australia, its capital city Adelaide would come to mind. Also known as the 20-minute city, you can check out the vineyards, the hills and the beaches, all in that timeframe. The short distance presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a car rental in Adelaide and hit up the various locations conveniently at your own pace.
Take your car rental upon leaving Adelaide Airport, straight to Glenelg beach. The main street of the beach, Jetty Road, is teeming with plenty of shopping and dining options. The beach itself is home to sailing tours with dolphins as well as a theme park. A perfect destination to take your car rental in Adelaide, given how accessible the beach is from the city.
In a suburb to the west of the city, lies Port Adelaide. The port itself makes for a pleasant excursion, with the area lined with heritage buildings and a wide selection of museums to visit. A fun activity would be to take a boat out to sea for dolphin spotting. Port Adelaide is brimming with culture and history. You can drink in at one of the many local bars and establishments along the port. A reason to make the port your first stop after picking your car rental from the Adelaide Airport.
The rural retreat of Adelaide Hills lies in the southeast of the city. The various activities and sites available could very well make the Hills a tourist location on its own. The Hills are home to koalas found in Gorge Wildlife Park, along with a wide selection of restaurants serving what many claims to be the best produce in South Australia.
If you are looking for a great walking road, the 60-day walk of the Heysen Trail would provide an opportunity to stretch your legs and test your endurance. The Trail itself is made up of several cultural landmarks ranging from gorges to several national parks and even through Adelaide Hills. The best part about the walk is the ability to tailor your route to what you want to see and where you wish to go. You can take your car rental in Adelaide and drive to your starting point before setting off on your journey.
When one thinks of Australia, Koalas and Kangaroos naturally come to mind. Kangaroo Island, as the name would suggest, yields a very high chance of spotting kangaroos, but the island itself also holds more in store for visitors than expected. If you are looking to go camping, the Flinders Chase National Park will suit your needs. Sightseers can visit the Seal Bay Conservation Park and the Kelly Hill Limestone Caves as well.
It would be challenging to plan a road trip to Adelaide with the overwhelming number of things to do and to see. Let Hertz Car Rental lighten the load and take care of your transport needs while you focus on what matters.
