Wine tours

Posted by backpacker91 29 August 2007

The wine growing area is really interesting for both wine lovers and nature lovers. The Clare Valley and also the Barossa valley make a really interesting region to visit - the area grows both red and whites. There are nice beaches in this area too.

Chianti Classico

Posted by AledG 23 January 2007

A very good Italian restaurant, but also excellent breakfasts. By far the best cappuccino I've had in Australia

Prairie Hotel, Flinders Ranges

Posted by AledG 23 January 2007

A gastro-pub worthy of Islington in the middle of nowhere. The Prairie Hotel has good rooms, great outback food (kangaroo is particularly good) and its own beer. The best thing about the place are the owners and staff though. Sit watching the sunset with them and at 10-ish the mile long coal train will rattle through as well.

Probably the best hotel-experience we have had in Australia. Strongly recommended.

This is a caravan park and recreation reserve where you can pitch a tent. For camping without the hassle and its close to the airport. Relatively inexpensive, within easy reach of the city and Glenelg the most popular tourist spot. They have cabins but who needs them when with your small tent and their fantastic kitchen, shower blocks, tv room, and the sun your set for a comfortable stay. It's right on the beach, surrounded by fencing and the restaurants and hotels of Glenelg, are a ten minute walk away. Great for families and backpackers.
