>Immerse yourself in a day of discovery and indulgence with the From Adelaide: Hahndorf and Barossa Valley with Winery Lunch tour, a journey that seamlessly blends the rich history of the Adelaide Hills with the world-renowned wine culture of the Barossa Valley. This guided experience offers a perfect escape from the city, taking you through scenic landscapes to some of South Australia’s most captivating destinations.
The tour begins with a scenic drive through the picturesque Adelaide Hills, setting the stage for your first major stop: the charming village of Hahndorf. As Australia’s oldest surviving German settlement, Hahndorf is a living testament to its heritage. The keyword “Hahndorf” is not just a destination; it’s an experience, with its elm-lined main street and stunning 19th-century German Fachwerkhäuser (half-timbered houses). Here, you’ll have free time to explore at your own pace. Wander through the quaint streets, browse unique artisan shops, and discover galleries showcasing local art. The scent of traditional German bakeries and the sight of German-style pubs will transport you to Bavaria. Whether you choose to sip a coffee, sample some local cheese at Udder Delights, or simply soak in the atmosphere, Hahndorf offers a delightful blend of history, culture, and retail therapy.
Following your time in Hahndorf, the tour continues into the heart of the world-famous Barossa Valley. Known for its prolific wine production, this region is a paradise for connoisseurs and casual enthusiasts alike. Your journey will include visits to celebrated wineries, where you’ll be treated to guided wine tastings, allowing you to sample a curated selection of the region’s finest drops. The highlight of the Barossa portion of the tour is a delicious winery lunch, often a two-course meal, perfectly paired with local wines, providing a true taste of the region’s culinary excellence. The tour often includes a stop at Maggie Beer’s Farm Shop, giving you another opportunity to experience the Barossa’s gourmet offerings. You will also visit a couple of renowned wineries for tastings, such as Chateau Tanunda and Kies Family Wines, before heading back to the historic town of Hahndorf for a final visit.
This comprehensive day trip provides a perfect balance of guided experiences and free time, ensuring you get the most out of your visit. From the captivating German charm of Hahndorf to the sophisticated wine culture of the Barossa Valley, this tour is an unforgettable way to discover some of the best of what South Australia has to offer.

a month agoRundle Mall has a lot of shops, eateries and street sculptures, which are very clever and well positioned, however, it was very busy and not easy to move around on the day we were there. It was around lunch time, so perhaps a different time of day would have been better.

5 months agoWent shopping on a Sunday. Most shops open but quieter than weekdays. Koko Black is great for chocolate connoisseurs. The beauty shop in basement of Myer Centre is great! We had coffee outside at Cibo, weather was perfect.

5 months agoWell if it’s got shiny balls and little quirky arcades it’s the Rundle Mall. Beautifully maintained areas as well as little secret. The elevator outside of Kmart is open to the public and press 7. A short ride later and you have great views of the mall as well as the Adelaide Hills. Great variety of stores and plenty of food options adjacent to this shopping strip. Give it a go!

5 months agoRundle Mall is as wonderful as it was when I a child. The silver balls were still there with some pigs and a pigeon now. It has a great variety of stores and a good shopping experience.

5 months agoIn Adelaide city, I absolutely loved this mall area—it’s amazing and has everything you need for shopping. We spent three days around this area, and it was fabulous. You can find almost everything within walking distance. I highly recommend visiting this area when you’re in Adelaide
